Cristina

Cristina always knew that movement was good for her physically and mentally, but when she first started practicing yoga she didn’t realise how much it would transform her life!

Christina's mission is to help people find their own individual expression on the mat, connect with themselves and others and guide them through a journey of self-discovery and empowerment.

Cristina teaches Power Yoga, Restorative Yoga, ParaStars Yoga®, children's Yoga and Meditation. Her classes aim to find the right balance of dynamic and restorative poses, with a focus on mental and physical strength and relaxation. Cristina has also produced our popular Children In Need Meditations. 

Cristina will take you on an inspiring yoga journey and encourage you to work within your range and level. Her classes are friendly, engaging and very popular.
