Astrid offers Vinyasa yoga, Restorative yoga and yoga Nidra. Astrid´s Vinyasa yoga focuses on fluid sequences, creative transitions with the goal of using the asana as a tool to bring you closer to a happier, truer and more optimal way of living. Astrid encourages you to live yoga off the mat. Yoga is a lifestyle rooted in philosophy rather than workout (but it is a very good supplement to your training if your goal is to gain more flexibility or strength too). Astrid’s classes put an emphasis on what feels good in your body – for you to listen in and be aware to take optimal choices, so the awareness you practice on your mat will help you off your mat.
Astrid has completed the 200 hour Vinyasa Teacher Training and the 340 hour Advanced Teacher Training with Atman Yoga School, as well as the Restorative Yoga and Yoga Nidra training. She is part of the teaching staff at Atman Yoga School.

Krissa is a 500hr certified Dharma Yoga Teacher who did her training at the Dharma Yoga Center in New York. She first discovered yoga at the age of 17 when her mom (also a yoga teacher, Anusara lineage) started encouraging her to go to classes together. For the first 5 years, it was all about fun, exploration and experimentation. Krissa dipped in and out of different styles, philosophies and approaches that include: Hatha, Ashtanga, Power Yoga, Hot Yoga, Jivamukti, Iyengar, Anusara, AcroYoga and finally: Dharma Yoga. She never thought she wanted to be a yoga teacher. Yoga was always a personal practice. But when she discovered Dharma Yoga in a tiny island in the Caribbean of all places, her life was changed. After her first Dharma Yoga class, Krissa felt her heart completely melt and for the first time, yoga became more than just the physical poses. It was a way home. This was back in 2010, and in 2011 she did her first 200hr teacher training with Sri Dharna Mittra in New York. Her goal has always been to share this feeling with other people; not to teach “the hardest class”, but to make yoga feel accessible, fun, personal and transformative.
