Hello and welcome to Athena Yoga! My name is Christie, and I am the heart and soul behind this sanctuary where ancient wisdom meets modern mindfulness. With a passion deeply rooted in the transformative power of yoga, I embarked on this journey to create a space that embodies strength, wisdom, and healing, much like Athena herself, the goddess of wisdom and courage.

 

At Athena Yoga, we believe in the power of yoga not just as a form of physical exercise, but as a pathway to deeper self-awareness, peace, and resilience. My journey into yoga began over a decade ago, during periods of personal challenges that led me to seek healing beyond the conventional. What started as a quest for physical wellness unfolded into a profound exploration of the mind, body, and spirit connection.

 

Certified in multiple yoga disciplines, I blend traditional practices with contemporary understanding to offer classes that are accessible, engaging, and deeply rejuvenating. My approach to teaching is rooted in empathy and encouragement, fostering an environment where every breath and movement brings you closer to your inner strength and serenity.

 

Beyond the mat, I am committed to lifelong learning and continuously deepen my practice and teaching through workshops, retreats, and studying under renowned yoga masters. This ongoing journey enriches the classes and workshops at Athena Yoga, ensuring that we offer a holistic and authentic yoga experience.

 

When I'm not in the studio, you'll find me immersed in nature, cuddling with my three pups, diving into my other passion of art, and drawing inspiration from the serene beauty of the outdoors, or curled up with a good book on mindfulness and personal growth. These moments of quiet reflection and connection with nature are integral to my practice and teaching philosophy.

 

I invite you to join me at Athena Yoga, where together, we will explore the transformative power of yoga, cultivate inner peace, and embark on a journey toward holistic well-being. Whether you are taking your first step onto the mat or deepening your practice, Athena Yoga offers a nurturing space to explore, grow, and connect with your true self.

 

Welcome to our community, where your journey towards balance, strength, and wisdom begins.

Namaste, Christie
