Home ⎟ Tanzasana Yoga ⎟ About the Teacher

After graduating from Smith College with a B.A. in Sociology and Dance, Kirsten was certified to teach Vinyasa yoga by Sonic Yoga’s Center for Yoga Studies in NYC and founded Tanzasana Yoga the following year. Practicing yoga for over a decade, she loves teaching because it combines many passions – healing, yoga, dance, the outdoors – into a beautifully unified whole. Her creatively designed yoga hikes and retreats provide a welcoming and warm atmosphere to develop one’s yoga practice into a deeper transformative journey – whether you’re a seasoned practitioner, athlete, or brave beginner. Whether you’re looking to get back into shape, or clear your mind of unnecessary clutter, Kirsten’s classes are customized to soothe any soul.

Tanzasana Yoga offers Vinyasa yoga hikes, workshops and retreats. Kirsten’s extensive knowledge of both well-known and lesser traveled hiking trails, coupled with her native wilderness skills, make her an excellent guide. As the owner of Tanzasana Yoga, Kirsten has taught private and group yoga classes and hikes throughout Los Angeles, San Diego, Mount Shasta, Big Sur, New York City, Vermont, Massachusetts, Colorado and New York’s Hudson Valley. Everything we need, we already have – we just need to embrace the world around us; and she strives to enable others to find joy and comfort within themselves through a deepening of their yoga practice.
