Kristen Barfield
Kristen Barfield, RN-BSN, Owner of Blooming Life Yoga & Pilates, 200 E-YRT, Yoga Alliance Certified Educatinal Professional (YACEP) and BASI Pilates Comprehensive Training 500HR.
Kristen knew even before attending her first Yoga class that there was something special about it. It was something that kept calling to her as she raised her family and worked nights as a Labor and Delivery Nurse. She kept thinking that there had to be something more than the traditional fitness paradigm. After attending my first Hatha class, I knew I was home.
Kristen fell in love with Pilates along the way, too, and added these newofferings at her yoga studio. Just another way for her to share that the connection of the physical body and the mental body is our path to optimal health and wellness. Her goal as a teacher, whether it be Yoga or Pilates, is to help students find their “balance” physically and mentally.
Love-Practice-Growth-Community are the cornerstones of her teaching and what she offers to her students every day!
This trip is in partnership with Peace through Yoga Foundation, a 501c3 non-profit, and Blooming Life Yoga.
