Meet Your Guide
Christina Baggott
Yoga Therapist, 500-RYT, YACEP, EFT Practitioner, Meditation Guide, Life Coach
Interested in joining a class, enrolling in a program, or learning more about private sessions, but don't know where to begin. I'd love to hear from you.
Hey there, I'm Christina! I've been teaching yoga since 2008. My journey started as a way to heal from my own trauma, and now I love sharing what I’ve learned to help others feel grounded and free from overwhelming stress.
My work is rooted in lived experience. I know what it’s like to have a nervous system shaped by stress and survival — and I also know what it’s like to gently come back into safety, choice, and self-trust.
Yoga became a way for me to reconnect with my body in a kind, non-forceful way, and that continues to shape how I teach. I’m especially passionate about boundaries, consent, and helping people feel empowered rather than overwhelmed.
Whether I’m teaching locally or traveling to share this work, my intention is always the same: to support people in discovering their own inner steadiness, resilience, and potential.
As for my credentials, I am a Yoga Therapist, E-RYT500, YACEP, EFT Practitioner and Life Coach. I offer community yoga classes, workshops and trainings for all those wanting to learn more about stress management options and yoga.
I can't wait to meet you!
