Having spent most of her childhood years on horseback in nature, Kirsten has found in yoga a new way to connect with nature now that she lives in Amsterdam. Kirsten studied Prana Yoga at the Prana Yoga College in Vancouver, and is currently studying Centered Yoga with Dona Holleman.
Kirsten is also a certified Ayurvedic nutrition and lifestyle consultant and studying to be an Ayurvedic therapist. Kirsten has been teaching yoga in both groups and private sessions for four years now. She invites her students to become aware of repetitive and habitual patterns that cause pain and unbalance. She guides them through the physical body with a creative flow of classical yoga poses while engaging the breath.
With the flow, breath and emphasis on mindfulness Kirsten turns yoga into a moving meditation, encouraging students to open up and let go of restrictive habits.
