Kristen Mico  
Kristen Mico Kristen's practice is focused on realizing yoga's capacity to enhance and bring greater meaning to life beyond the mat. Seeing yoga as a practice to prepare the body, mind and spirit for all of life's joys and it's trials. Starting with the outer body, she aims to help students build strength, openness and vital energy flow throughout the entire body that can be translated to 'real' life. Her curiosity for yoga at a young age has taken her to explorations in YinYoga, Anusara yoga, Atma Yoga, Thai massage, and modern dance. She has a degree in Family and Human Services from the University of Oregon where she focused on yoga as a modality for healing trauma, affirming her experience of yoga not only as a tool to heal, but powerful in preparing one for difficult situations. Kristen has been practicing yoga for over ten years, with the strength and flexibility of the practice continually guiding her to places of beauty and wonder. She comes from a family of evolving yogis and realizes yoga as a realm of existence, grounded in love and truth.
