Meet Tina

Portrait of Tina, Viniyoga teacher

A compassionate, breath-centered approach to yoga.

Tina offers a compassionate, breath-centered approach to yoga rooted in the Viniyoga tradition of Sri T. Krishnamacharya and T.K.V. Desikachar. This tradition adapts yoga to the individual—using tailored techniques to support personal insight and healing.

What draws Tina most deeply to Viniyoga is its profound intentionality. Every movement, breath, and focus point serves a specific, functional purpose to support physical well-being, emotional balance, nervous system regulation, and inner clarity. For Tina, yoga is not about achieving advanced poses, but about cultivating a transformative relationship with the breath, body, mind, and life itself.
