About Kristen:


As an elementary school teacher for the past three decades, Kristen certainly did not foresee a yoga and holistic healing practice as a life path, but her personal experiences were so profound that she opened her heart and fully surrendered to all these ancient and sacred healing practices have to offer.

Kristen’s current certifications include a 500 hour Registered Yoga Teacher certification and a 200 hour Kundalini Certification with a passion for Meditation, Pranayama, Slow Flow, Yin and Restorative Yoga Practices. Kristen is also a Reiki Master Teacher, sound healer, shadow work and children’s author and an international yoga retreat leader.


Kristen offers her students an environment of balance, healing, serenity, and a deep connection to body, mind, breath, and spirit. She believes that we can choose peace in our lives no matter what circumstances may be going on around us. When unexpected life events happen that impact our health, heart, mind, or spirit, it is a call for us to stop and reflect, to breathe, to take a look at our lives and realize it is time of transformation and growth.


Kristen’s wish for you is to come to a deep place of self-love so you do not have to look outside of yourself for anything…when you step off your mat and out into the world, you do so with gratitude, wonderment, grace and purpose. And always remember: we don’t use our body to come into a pose, we use the pose to come into the body.

About our Amazing Chef, Angie


From a young age, Angelica was connected to her calling with creation for greater source and divine love.


Angelica started her healing journey after finding herself seemingly with nowhere else to go. This led her to the abundant energy found in the vast mountains of Mt. Shasta. It was here where her voice rooted and expanded into the angelic light frequency, into the discovery of her truth and the courage to co-create a life that reflected devotional abundance. Since then she has received her BFA from Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, NY, and has continued to travel to sacred sites across the U.S. She is currently studying and integrating Breathwork, Bhakti Yoga, Akashic breadth as taught by Veronica Ruiz of Sacred Divine Goddess and Lisa Gniady, and translating light code activations into visual artworks and writing. As of 2024, she has completed 9 months of Cacao Ceremonial Facilitation Training, as taught under Florencia Friedman’s Apprenticeship with Florecer. In the fall of 2024, she will receive her 200HR YTT through The Bhakti Center in New York.


Angelica’s paintings explore the dichotomy between the natural world and its inhabitants. She embraces art as her surrender, believing that the ever-evolving and mysterious present moment could become the most cherished memory. Amidst the fading remnants of the past, she employs art as a means to delve into the essence of being truly present.


Her road to recovery from an eating disorder and sexual trauma anchored in her initiations with food as ancient and modern medicine to nourish the weakened soul. Re-discovering how and where food is sourced and the various ways of which it can be prepared, Angelica draws inspiration from her Latin roots and Ayurvedic practices with a plant-based lifestyle. Believing that food preparation is art, she encourages the start-to-finish process to be a ritual.
