About Me

I love to read, chat with friends, run with my dog, cook dinner with my husband and cheer my 3 kids on in their plethora of activities. I am a young breast cancer survivor who credits a holistic and integrative approach to wellness for my own renewed and stable health.

As a yoga teacher it is my intention that each person leaves class feeling better, learns something new about themselves or a pose, feels a part of the class community and most of all laughs and finds that magical moment when movement and breath connects. 

First and foremost, I am always a student, always seeking and looking to expand my horizons.  I have learned so much from all of my teachers, but most of all I am inspired by my students. 

Yoga combined with a mindful and holistic lifestyle has helped me to get thru many twists and turns in my life with grace, perseverance and gratitude.  I can't wait to share it with you!

“I have great respect for the past. If you don’t know where you’ve come from, you don’t know where you’re going. I have respect for the past, but I’m a person of the moment. I’m here, and I do my best to be completely centered at the place I’m at, then I go forward to the next place.”
— Maya Angelou

Testimonials

"Christine’s classes always create an environment of comfort, ease, and support. From my very first class with her, I was struck by her kindness and openness to all of her students and their abilities. She has a wonderful talent to both meet students at their level while encouraging them to test and challenge their boundaries. She has a vast knowledge of principles of functional movement and continually shares alignment principles throughout class to help students reach their full potential and guide them into poses. Christine’s guidance has been momentous both in my yoga practice and in my personal life; I cannot recommend her highly enough."

Kari Stromberg, yoga practitioner

 

"Christine has been and continues to be a major influence in my yoga practice.  She provides a non-judgemental yoga space, offering modifications and encouragement so that all can enjoy the benefits of yoga.  Her cues allow me to achieve a better alignment and get the most out of every pose. Yoga with Christine is the perfect mix of challenging, energizing and calm.  Christine's thoughtful words of inspiration add to my overall experience.  She has made me better both on and off the mat, helping me achieve a mind and body balance that spills into all the spaces of my life."

Lynn Cwik, yoga practitioner

"Christine’s yoga classes are the right mix of mindful, centering breathing exercises and Yoga poses that both challenge and restore the body.  She begins each class with a  thoughtful theme that teaches us about the origin and purpose of various yoga poses and serves to integrate the mind, body and spirit.  Christine brings enormous heart and a wealth of knowledge to each class infused with her humor and lightness.    I leave each class feeling  centered and joyful, with appreciation and gratitude."
