CHRYSTAL RAE ALMEIDA - GAIA FLOW YOGA FOUNDER & INSTRUCTOR
“Yoga is my chosen path of healing, empowerment and enlightenment.”
It is my intention and desire to share the gifts of Gaia Flow Yoga with everyone I encounter both on and off the mat. For me, yoga is a way of life that embraces “all that is” with kindness, compassion, strength and unconditional love”
With a history of more than 20 years in the fitness industry ( 8 of which I have been practicing yoga) I feel blessed to have had the opportunity to study with some of the world’s most gifted yogis. It is with much gratitude, love and reverence that I bow to all my teachers and mentors who have guided, and who continue to guide me, along my yogic path.
Most importantly, I am overwhelmed with love and gratitude for my students who have blessed me with their strengths and weaknesses, reflecting my own.
“Yoga embraces “all that is” with kindness, compassion, strength and unconditional love.”
My formal education is in the creative world of Arts and Humanities. After a near fatal accident that changed the course of my life, I enrolled in the University of Texas at Dallas in my mid 30’s and received the Degree of Bachelor of Arts in Literary Studies, graduating Magna Cum Laude with honors.
My hobbies are reading, writing, and painting, but my true passion and joy is yoga. The particular style of yoga that I teach and practice is Gaia Flow Yoga–a unique blend of yoga that offers an energetic conscious love based practice that both empowers and enlivens.
As a teacher, mentor and guide, it is my true intention, deep honor and real joy to assist students find new strength, flexibility, and freedom, both in their practice and in their lives, and in this way empower them to enjoy a fuller more joyous life.
All my love
Namaste
Chrystal Rae
