FAQ
What inspired you to teach yoga?
Exploring and training in many forms of dance and yoga has was always been a sacred space for me. As we connect with our bodies, we become more connected with the present moment and from there the inward journey can begin. I believe the ancient yoga texts teach important life skills that can benefit everyone.
Who are your most influential teachers?
Janet Stone, Roseangela Silvestre, Judith Lasater, Sharon Gannon, Lesley Desaulniers, Hillary Skibell, Nikki Estrada and most of all my two children.
How would you describe your style?
Fluid and Strong with Grace and Depth
Why do you feel retreats are transformational?
Yoga takes place out there in the world, not necessarily on the mat. The word yoga means to 'unite,' So I like to combine yoga and adventure and travel. Getting out in nature and immersing in different cultures helps us to connect to all living things.
What is your favorite pose to teach?
Crow - it excites me when people do something for the first time that they thought they could not do.
What is your favorite pose to practice?
Reverse Savasana - I love to surrender and let go in this pose and feel the supportive floor hold me up.
What are your favorite places to travel?
I love to be near grand mountains and vast bodies of water.

"I have gone to 2 of Kristen's yoga retreats and I am signed up for another. On the first retreat, I did not know anyone, however, Kristen is able to set an atmosphere of love, acceptance, and friendship. I made wonderful friends right away and am still friends with these fun ladies."
