Meet The Team
Sarah Evans
President
Sarah Evans is passionate about the health and wellbeing industry. She is a Registered Nurse with Cardiovascular Intensive Care experience, the owner of a massage studio and has worked as a Massage Therapist since 1998. She is the co-owner of a local yoga studio and has completed the highest level of training (F.I.T. to Lead) through the Baptiste Yoga Institute. Her love of yoga comes from not only the wide ranging health benefits, but also it's ability to create connection between people and develop powerful leaders. She founded 3 Rivers Yoga Foundation to strengthen our community by connecting people through a shared experience and making yoga accessible to anyone, anywhere. She currently serves as the President of the organization.
Jennifer Mills
Vice President
Jen Mills is a tier one certified Baptiste teacher, a 200 hour RYT, and has been teaching Baptiste Yoga for the past five years. Through the Baptiste methodology, Jen discovered her passion for health and healing and pursued this interest further by becoming a massage therapist. Being a part of the 3 Rivers Yoga Foundation is her way to give back and to be of service to the community. Her hope is that by teaching the methodology, she can pass this gift on to her students, and for them to discover their passion and live their best life. When she is not teaching yoga, Jen enjoys spending time with her family, friends, snuggling her pups, summer days on her porch, and cozy fires in her living room.

Kathy Price
Treasurer
Although Kathy loves practicing and teaching yoga, she wears a variety of hats in the community! From managing a locally owned construction company and volunteering her time for fundraising with another local non for profit and assisting her husband Jason with his ground maintenance company. She is also the mother of 3 very active teens, 2 boys, Nathan and Luke and 1 girl, Jessica, and wife to Jason since 2002! Kathy has a bachelors degree in psychology from Taylor University with minors in social work and education and a hefty collection of leadership trainings and certifications from her years in radio, finance management and sales. When she isn’t pouring her heart into her family, work, the love of yoga and volunteering, you can find her at many local community events around town including live music events, concerts or traveling with family and friends! Adventure and community is top priority for Kathy!

Jena Snyder
Board Member

When she isn't working, she enjoys playing volleyball, reading, or spending time with her husband and dog, Hazel May.
Sofia Rosales-Scatena
Board Member
Sofia Rosales-Scatena is our newest board member, joining our team in 2022. She probably is best known as a 28+ year police officer for the City of Fort Wayne PD, but would rather be known as a Haribo sour gummy bear lover and sparkling water aficionado. Active within the community, she does find time to do a lot of the things she loves - working out, gardening, cooking, and of course, yoga and mediation. She loves to travel as well. Sofia has two kids, two cats and a hamster, and is looking forward to spreading good mental and emotional health through yoga.
