About
Writer. Skater. Disruptor.
I’m Janna Stevens — a digital strategist, writer, and fitness instructor shaking things up in Birmingham, Alabama. Whether I’m crafting compelling content, teaching alignment-based yoga, or hitting the skating rink, I bring a no-nonsense, authentic approach to everything I do.
A Storyteller With an Edge
What began with childhood short stories turned into degrees in English and a career that spans digital marketing, copywriting, and web strategy. I believe writing should be bold and true to your voice — and that’s the approach I take with every project I touch. My work has been published in Alabama Magazine, across countless websites, and in social media and marketing campaigns for companies big and small.
Rolling With the Punches and Finding My Flow
Movement is as much a part of me as storytelling. Skating, especially during my time playing roller derby for Tuscaloosa’s Druid City Derby and the Alabama All-Stars state team, taught me resilience and teamwork — lessons I carry into my work. My 365 Skate Challenge in 2021 helped me reconnect with the pure joy of roller skating.
Yoga entered my life during a tough time, becoming my sanctuary and eventually a passion I now share as a certified instructor. With 200 hours of training through HereNowYoga and currently pursuing my 300-hour certification, I strive to make yoga accessible to all bodies, ages, and abilities with an inclusive, light-hearted approach.
