Meet Your Founders —
Krista DeBuhr and Mary Fennel
Krista DeBuhr and Mary Fennel are the producers of YOTM. Krista founded the event in 2014. The Arkansas yoga community was really coming to life, and she hoped to unite the yoga teachers and students to keep the momentum going.
Together, they founded Wellness on the Water (WOTW) in 2024, desiring to expand their focus to reach all people desiring to experience wellness beyond yoga—through community, education, movement, and shared time in nature.
Krista is a health coach, yoga teacher, and personal trainer, and welcomes new clients. Mary is an artist.
