thank you for being here

Christine is a yoga teacher and a creative expressionist, she moves through life holding her inner-child close by, and finds true joy in connecting with others.

It has been through connecting with her body and breath that she uncovered deeper levels of herself, and her yoga classes hold space for students to do the same. Yoga is Christine’s soft and safe landing space, and her classes ooze with play and light heartedness. Her classes are intentionally accessible and grounding. She is committed to creating a space where people feel safe to access themselves.

It has been through exploring her inner world that she has felt secure to show up out in the world. With creativity and expression at her core, she enjoys breathing life into “old / discarded” items by transforming them into something new and unique.

She truly believes that we all deserve to give ourselves another chance.

Being able to change (anything) is one of life’s greatest gifts.

What would it feel like to give yourself another chance?
