Meet Cassandra-Spa Owner/Hairstylist
Nominated for Best Hairstylist

Cass became a member of Steamboat Dance Theatre finding friends who are now considered family. Cass helped create a Polynesian Dance group called Hokunani Hula who performs all over Steamboat during the summertime. Most of her free time is spent with her family at kid’s hockey games, horse shows and you can also find her dancing with the Hokunani Hula group,
She found Life Essentials because every time she asked for opinions about a spa, Life Essentials came up. Originally from Grand Junction, she popped around a few mountain towns before landing in Steamboat Springs.
Meet Brianna-Massage Therapist

She has a bachelor of science in integrative medicine and massage therapy is her license to touch. She approaches each massage with complete openness, appreciation, and respect for the person allowing her to work on their body. She listens and feels to try her best to let the client’s body guide her work.
On her off days, you can find her in her kitchen cooking up delicious food or on her yoga mat finding her inner peace.
She loves playing outdoors whether that be snowboarding in the winters or camping in the summers.
Meet Coral-Hairstylist

When she returned to Chicago, she and her business partner opened a salon where they began making wigs for local theater and working as hairstylists! Coral later began training to become a birth doula and she is completing her postpartum doula training this summer.
Since moving to Steamboat she has found a new love for hiking with her dog, Bruce Springsteen. Fun Fact, Coral’s full name is Coral Gable. She was named after Coral Gables, FL because her mother figured nobody would ever forget her name.

Meet Heather-Spa Manger

She loves that both her coworkers, and the clientele here are all wonderful people, and helping clients find their peace, relaxation, and relief from pain is something she is passionate about.
