More about Christina:
550 HR Certified Yoga Instructor with over 1500 teaching hours.
Christina’s style of teaching is gentle, yet effective. She provides in-depth instruction and guidance through each yoga posture. Through her teaching, her students learn to stay present and focused. This provides her students with the ability to build a greater awareness and control of their breathing and body positioning, which can translate into their lives off the mat. Christina brings positivity, encouragement and compassion into each class. She does not believe in forcing the body into a pose. Instead, she will look for ways to modify a posture based on her students’ abilities.
After completing her 200HR Yoga Teacher Training in India, she became passionate about spreading awareness of proper alignment in yoga in order to minimize yoga injuries and maximize posture benefits. In this training she learned to teach Hatha Yoga, Yin Yoga, Vinyasa Yoga, Ashtanga Yoga and Aerial Yoga. Christina further completed specialized training in Yin Yoga with Master Teacher, Bernie Clark. This training opened her eyes to the anatomical differences of individuals and gave her all of the necessary tools to modify postures to suit an individuals’ direct needs. Christina completed her 300HR Yoga Teacher Training with Alignment Expert, Briohny Smyth. This training taught her the importance of proper body engagement paired with proper alignment to really understand postures on a deeper level and teach them more effectively to her students.
In 2017, she founded Instagram’s @yogaalignment and @yogaalignmentgirl where she creates, curates and shares tutorials relating to yoga postures and positioning. This passion project has turned gone global with over 430,000 followers. She is also a writer/contributor for www.yogapedia.com and has appeared on Breakfast Television and in other publications.
In 2022, she founded Yoga Student Training (YST), a program specifically designed for those that want to begin, deepen and improve their yoga self-practice.
Christina’s knowledge base and attention to detail has given her the ability to help over half a million yogis and yoga enthusiasts on social media to modify and significantly improve their own yoga practices. By creating, curating and sharing informative and useful yoga-specific tutorials, she has been able to teach and share her knowledge with individuals all over the world.
Her goal is to inspire the world to start their own yoga journey and to properly educate those who have already begun. She is trained in all styles of yoga but specializes in Hatha/Gentle Yoga and Yin Yoga. Christina understands that the foundation of health begins with homeostasis and energetic balance of the mind, body and spirit. This is achieved through exercise, stress management techniques, proper nutrition and lifestyle choices. She believes that with proper guidance, we can all achieve optimal health.

“I booked Christina because a girlfriend had hired her to do a girls session with friends for my birthday. It was so fun that I booked her for a corporate yoga session and she was amazing! We had people of different abilities and she ensured the flow was for everyone. She was prompt, organized and super enthusiastic! I have booked her for another corporate session and the whole organization is looking forward to it. Highly recommend!”
“I have met Yoga teachers who are gifted practitioners and I have met Yogis who are gifted instructors. To be both is less common. I feel Christina is one of those. She focuses on pointing to the nuances of each pose so that one can fully and richly experience a pose rather than briskly going though motions. Her dedication to her students’ learning is exemplary.”
“I highly recommend Christina’s yoga classes for those beginner/intermediate yogis who have been practicing yoga through either group classes or by watching youtube videos. Her classes will elevate your yoga journey to the next level. Through her personalized yoga classes, I was able to learn about each yoga pose in depth. She teaches techniques which ensure proper alignment. With her help with adjusting in my yoga poses, I feel much more grounded and have a better sense of my yoga poses. Also, her explanation of anatomy of each yoga poses made me further appreciate yoga practice. I feel rejuvenated, energetic and happy after her personalized yoga sessions and very pleased with my progress.”
“Thank you so much for today’s practice! I’ve been feeling lethargic and yoga is helping me bring back some vitality back into my life. Your very good at explaning the proper way to do the poses making sure i do them correctly in order to get full benefit. You take the time to see what I’m doing and i can clearly see you and understand what you want me to do. You look at what I’m doing and make the corrections! That’s amazing. Not to many teachers will take that time. Thanks again. Look forward to continuing my practice with you and achieving vitality and strength.”
“I have had yoga training with instructors earlier. The key difference in yoga learning experience with Christina is the thought she puts in assessing strengths and fallibilities of her students and then building the right foundation before advancing to the next steps. Her attention to detail while teaching is a testimony to her passion for Yoga. She is the best Yoga teacher I have had to-date.”
“Practicing Yoga with Christina has brought a world of positive change in my life. I look forward to our days of practice. I am impressed by how invested she is, in the evolution and growth of all her students even though we all are at different levels of ability. The breath work and the card readings make it an even more immersive experience with benefits ranging from physical to emotional to spiritual realms. I feel so blessed to have this opportunity to learn with Christina.”
