"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 has made the
journey to Mysore, India to study under their guidance at the Sri. K. Pattabhi Jois Ashtanga Yoga Institute numerous times in order that
her own practice may continue to grow on the right path under their tutelage. Krista humbly gives thanks to Sharath for entrusting her
to carry on the traditional teachings of the Ashtanga Vinyasa system as he has taught her. Krista was Authorized by Sharath in
February 2009.
