Mandi Benavides Brown 

Mandi Benavides Brown brings over 10 years of teaching experience and a deeply compassionate approach to her practice. Her journey into yoga began during a difficult time in her life, when she found herself navigating the deep grief of losing her spouse. Her yoga practice and community gave her the space to breathe, listen, grow, and be. This life-changing experience has fueled her dedication to creating a supportive and healing environment for others.

Mandi is trained in a variety of yoga styles, including Vinyasa, Baptiste, Yin, Restorative, Meditation, and Yoga Nidra. At Luxe Yoga, she teaches Gentle Mobility & Stretch and Restore, offering a blend of mindful movement and relaxation to meet students where they are. Known for her consistent breath cues, inclusive instruction, and light-hearted humor, Mandi creates a space where students feel both challenged and seen. Whether in her flow classes or her Restore classes, she aims to leave her students feeling rejuvenated, balanced, and calm.

Outside of the studio, Mandi finds peace and inspiration in nature, frequently visiting the Houston Botanical Gardens, Memorial Park, Buffalo Bayou Park, and the Allen Parkway walking trails. Mandi’s greatest pride is being a mom to two successful and respectful grown sons.
