Why Kinetica – Castle Hill

Christina’s first introduction to yoga came in 2011 when she was playing competitive water polo. Part of her training involved heavy weight lifting and she found herself suffering crippling back and neck pain.

After working through her injuries with regular and dedicated practice, Christina’s attention was quickly drawn from the physical side of yoga to the spiritual and she developed a deep love and respect for the boundless gifts it offers those who are willing to explore it with an open heart.

Living in London for 5 years, Christina was fortunate to be a karma yogi at TriYoga – one of the largest studios in the world.
Here, she was able to immerse herself in a variety of different styles and to learn under the care and guidance of incredible teachers in both traditional class environments and in workshops.

Returning briefly to Sydney to complete her 200HR YTT, Christina then set off for Los Angeles where she took yoga classes at every studio she came by and attended workshops on crystal vibrational meditation, Kirtan and Tantra.

From LA she travelled to the source, India to complete her 500HR YTT in Vinyasa flow.

Christina’s classes are a mix of Hatha, Vinyasa, Restorative and guided meditation. She likes to weave some of the spiritual, subtle and philosophical elements of yoga into her classes and music is an integral part.

Simple, intelligent sequencing make Christina’s classes available to all levels.
