Emily Pease
Lead Instructor
E-RYT 500, RCYT
Yoga found Emily quite some years ago and it has been a regular part of her life ever since. It wasn’t until a handful of years after her 200HR Teacher Training at Kripalu Center for Yoga & Health (2008), and after her move to Switzerland, that Emily found her life leading her towards sharing her practice in a more formal setting as a teacher. More recently she has completed additional trainings related to Yoga Anatomy, Kids & Family Yoga, Aerial Yoga (Unnata Method of Aerial Yoga) and finished her 500HR teaching certification with Mark Stephens.
For Emily, stepping onto the yoga mat is a refreshing reminder of what is important to her - that which keeps her feeling creative, inspired and in a meaningful relationship with life. In her classes she likes to play with concepts that bring a sense of joy, freedom and playfulness.
CHRISTINE FURLeR

Christine’s goal is to help you expand out of your comfort zone, connect to what is real for you and get inspired.
