Kristina is a graduate of the Joy Yoga Center teacher training program, one of Houston s top rated yoga studios (Health and Fitness Magazine), and is Yoga Alliance Certified. She is also a graduate of the Lauterstein/Conway School of Massage Therapy, Austin, TX, the only school in Texas to offer a nationally accredited program.

Kristina has an extensive background in anatomy and physiology and worked for 8 years as a massage therapist specializing in work with elite athletes. As well, she taught spin classes in the winter season for competitive cyclists.

Kristina has been practicing Yoga in one form or another since childhood and for many years was a competitive cyclist and tri-athlete. Her unique combination of experience and training give her a deep understanding of the need to find balance and compassion in the way we use and relate to our bodies. Her belief is: there is no mind/body duality. Your physical state reflects your mental and emotional approach to life. Just as you can change your attitude and perception so, too, can you change your health.

It is her goal to help her students more fully utilize the tools we all innately posses to help heal themselves, fully experience their potential physically, emotionally and spiritually, and become independent and personally responsible for their own well-being. Knowing this can be achieved with a sense of joy, ease and love.
