Steph Sinn: Teaching the Joys of Nude Living and Empowerment Through Naked Yoga
Steph’s Story
Steph Sinn is a woman who has embraced what most of us shy away from: being completely comfortable in her own skin—literally. At 31, she has built a lifestyle and career around her love for nudity, inspiring others to experience the freedom and empowerment of a clothes-free life. As a holistic health coach, content creator, and nude yoga instructor for True Naked Yoga, Steph’s journey is both inspiring and transformative. But it wasn’t without its challenges.
“We were born into this world naked and then conditioned to believe that our nude bodies are purely for sex.”
A Natural Start to Body Confidence
Steph’s open relationship with nudity began early. Growing up in Arizona, she fondly remembers carefree afternoons running naked through the yard with a garden hose and slip ’n’ slide. Her family fostered a nonjudgmental environment, which helped her develop a natural comfort with her body.
“As a competitive swimmer, I was constantly surrounded by minimally clothed people,” she recalls. “That had an unconscious impact on me and reinforced that there’s nothing shameful about the human body.”

However, like many teenagers, Steph’s openness around her family waned during puberty. It wasn’t until adulthood that she fully returned to embracing nudity as a lifestyle.
Choosing Nudity as a Lifestyle
Now living in Los Angeles, Steph spends as much time as possible in her natural state, depending on the weather. She doesn’t wear bras or underwear, finding them unnecessary and uncomfortable.
“If being naked was socially acceptable, I would be naked all the time,” she says with a laugh.
Her openness, however, has occasionally come at a cost. “When I became a nude model and yoga instructor, my parents were concerned about my safety and how it might affect my future in more traditional career paths. But over time, they came to understand how empowering I find it.”
Steph’s friendships have also been tested. She has lost connections with people who couldn’t accept her lifestyle, but she remains unshaken. “It’s painful, but I figure those who are truly meant to be in my life will stick around.”

Discovering Nude Yoga and Its Transformative Power
Steph’s passion for nudity intersected perfectly with her love of yoga when she discovered True Naked Yoga in 2020. Already practicing yoga nude at home, joining the streaming platform as an instructor was a natural fit.
“In my humble opinion, the number one benefit of being naked is the deepened connection with your body,” she says. “You become more aware of your form and technique because there are no clothes to mask your movement. It’s also a sensory experience—you can feel things you wouldn’t otherwise notice.”
Teaching nude yoga has allowed Steph to merge her personal beliefs with her professional life. She leads instructional videos that help others explore body awareness and self-acceptance. “Yoga, especially in the nude, helps us connect deeply with ourselves. It’s not just about physical health but about emotional and mental well-being.”
The Empowerment of Living Without Shame

For Steph, nudity is more than a lifestyle—it’s a statement of self-love. In a world obsessed with unattainable beauty standards, she views nudity as an act of radical self-acceptance.
“Being naked says you love yourself, inside and out,” she explains. “It’s an antidote to the endless comparisons we’re conditioned to make. It’s a declaration that you’re enough, just as you are.”
Steph encourages others to experience the transformative effects of spending time naked, even if it’s just in the privacy of their own home. “It’s not about being perfect. It’s about being real. When you strip away the layers—both physical and emotional—you find freedom.”
Finding Joy in Nature and Community
Steph’s love of nudity extends beyond her yoga practice. She regularly enjoys hiking, skinny-dipping, and visiting clothing-optional beaches and hot springs. These experiences have connected her with like-minded individuals and deepened her appreciation for nature.
“There’s something magical about being nude in the wild,” she says. “You feel connected to your surroundings in a way that’s impossible to replicate when you’re clothed.”
Inspiring Others to Embrace Their True Selves

Through her work with True Naked Yoga, Steph hopes to inspire others to embrace their natural state, both physically and emotionally. Her classes are designed not just to teach yoga but to empower students to let go of societal judgments and prioritize their health and wellness.
“I want people to realize that being naked isn’t inherently sexual or shameful,” she says. “It’s our natural state, and it’s a beautiful thing to connect with ourselves and others in this way.”
Steph’s journey is a testament to the transformative power of living authentically. By embracing her love of nudity, she has not only found freedom but has also helped others discover the joys of self-acceptance.
