About Christine Felstead

Christine has a long history as a 10 km and marathon runner. Several years ago she felt the need to increase her flexibility and became interested in yoga. After a few years as a casual practitioner, she decided to hang up her running shoes and devote her time exclusively to yoga. As her practice deepened, she began to experience profound changes in her values, priorities and realities. Yoga gave her the courage to leave her old world of climbing the corporate ladder and study to become a yoga instructor.

She brings to her teaching a deep understanding of body issues related to running and other aerobic activity. Christine uses her personal experience in working to realign and increase the range of motion in her own body and shares these insights with her students using a mix of alignment detail and flow. Christine Felstead has completed the teacher training program at Toronto's Downward Dog Yoga Centre and has attended workshops with leading ashtanga instructors including Richard Freeman, Chuck Miller and Maty Ezraty, Tim Miller, Niki Doane, Eddie Modestini, Hart Lazer and Shiva Rea.
