📢About Kristi!
Kristi started dancing at age three and practicing yoga at 16. Over 30+ years, she explored various movement practices, from Polarity Dance in DC to 5Rhythms in Pittsburgh, and from the Satchidananda Ashram in VA to Kundalini Kids Yoga at Kripalu. After moving to Charleston, SC, in the early 2000s, she earned her Nia White Belt and 200-hr Yoga Teaching certification.
She spent several years teaching Nia at Spirit Moves and children’s, prenatal, and vinyasa yoga at Holy Cow Yoga Center, where she also developed teacher trainings and produced a children’s yoga DVD. She taught yoga in Charleston schools and at the Children’s Museum.
Kristi continues to explore movement for personal growth, blending Nia’s joy, yoga’s peace and strength, and the empowerment both offer. Her teaching combines playful movement with rest and self-care.
Kristi earned her Nia Green Belt in 2025 and is also a Jungian Life Coach and Reiki Level II Practitioner. Her daughter Eviana, once a student in Kristi’s classes, is now a yoga teacher. Outside the studio, Kristi enjoys spending time with her family and dog, traveling, hiking, reading, and creating.
