Christine’s experience with yoga began in 1998, the same year she started her career as a middle school English teacher. With Rodney Yee videotapes and a foundations course at the Colorado School of Iyengar Yoga, she learned enough to feel the power of yoga to ground, support, and nurture. Her practice has evolved over the years as she continues to study with Craig Kurtz, Leslie Bradley, Kelly Moore, and Robin Thorpe. Iyengar yoga provides Christine with a sustainable practice to manage chronic back pain due to scoliosis.

“I frequently attend classes and workshops and enjoy continuing my yoga studies. I’m very grateful for the bounty of tools yoga provides to navigate life’s ups and downs. When I’m not practicing downward facing dog or grading papers, I enjoy traveling and spending time in the great outdoors of Colorado.”
