"My passion for Ashtanga yoga begins with my own daily practice, and from there I find the love, inspiration, and dedication to teach this beautiful tradition to others. My approach to teaching yoga follows my own personal practice: Ashtanga yoga is an ancient tradition that is to be respected, embraced, and nurtured. Once you focus on and surrender to your practice you will truly feel and see a growth and transformation from within." Krista gives thanks to her teachers Sri K. Pattabhi Jois, Sharath Rangaswamy, and Saraswati Rangaswamy. Krista makes the journey to Mysore, India every year to study under their guidance at the Sri. K.
