Christin Buttel

Whether you're just beginning your yoga pilgrimage or you're a teacher yourself, Christin's warm enthusiasm sets the tone for a fluid class encouraging each participant to break through their boundaries. She comes from a long family lineage of teachers and it shows in her patience and compassion. She includes creative sequencing and is very focused on alignment to protect the practitioner's body. Her classes have been described as "deeply spiritual while creating a fun, cheerful environment." Christin often includes thought provoking spiritual lessons and mythology.

When she became disciplined in her personal practice, Christin started to experience an internal shift. She left her 8 year position as a social worker --with a deep desire to give the gift of yoga to the people in our community. She has completed multiple TTC's in Rishikesh, India, the birthplace of YOGA and holds RYT 500 & ERYT 200 certs in Ashtanga, Hatha, and Meditation. Christin has pursued many avenues of continuing education including Yoga Nidra, Reiki, Yin yoga, hot Pilates certifications and also taken Zen Buddhist meditation workshops in the esteemed Shunkoin temple in Kyoto, Japan.

Her desire to bring an authentic and holistic experience to help heal her students from inside out has made her an eternal pilgrim. In her spare time, she volunteers with Big Brother/Big Sister program, animal rescue, enjoys playing guitar, painting and laughing shamelessly at her own jokes!
