Meet Kirstin
A yoga teacher and creative coach helping people reconnect with their bodies and bring meaningful ideas to life.
Hi, I’m Kirstin.
I’m a yoga teacher, creative collaborator, traveler, and mom navigating life wherever the military sends our family next.
Before stepping into the world of yoga and wellness, I spent nearly a decade working in branding, marketing, and digital storytelling. I helped non-profits, entrepreneurs, and independent brands bring their ideas to life through websites, messaging, and content.
But everything shifted when I became a mother in 2021.
The birth of my son brought immense joy — and one of the most difficult seasons of my life as I experienced severe postpartum depression. During that time, I felt deeply disconnected from myself and my body in ways I never expected.
Yoga slowly became one of the places where I found my way back.
What started as a personal practice became a lifeline. Movement helped me rebuild trust in my body, regulate my nervous system, and rediscover a sense of grounding during a time when everything else felt uncertain.
That experience reshaped the work I do today.
My teaching is rooted in an approach to yoga that emphasizes heart-led movement, nervous system awareness, and building strength and mobility that support real life.
Alongside teaching yoga, I continue to support creative entrepreneurs and small businesses through branding and storytelling. Helping people clarify their ideas and bring meaningful projects to life remains one of my favorite forms of creative collaboration.
At the heart of everything I do is a simple belief:
When people feel connected — to their bodies, their ideas, and their communities — they can build lives that feel more aligned and fulfilling.
And I’m really glad you’re here.
