Whitney Zora Stetler

Founder of Cocoa Yoga Cafe

Whitney Zora Stetler grew up in the mountains of Silver City, New Mexico, where she pursued music. She started a punk rock band in high school alongside her childhood best friend, Serena. She co-opened her first business, a coffee shop, at the age of 19. Whitney later received culinary arts degrees from The French Culinary Institute in New York City as well as Alma La Scuola Internazionale di Cucina Italiana in Parma, Italy. Whitney sharpened her love of business as the accountant for Platinum Aviation in Fort Lauderdale, and she later tackled sales and marketing in the medical field in Houston as well as Miami. Finally, Whitney was compelled by love to share the peace and wellness that her personal practice of yoga had long afforded her by earning her RYT-500. Voila! A trifecta of her favorite things: a classy cafe, yoga studio and music venue all culminated to form Cocoa Yoga Cafe. Whitney is happily married to a handsome pilot, has two precious children, an adorable dachshund, and very lofty dreams.
