Tina's empowering and adventurous spirit will leave you inspired and transformed, as she shares her journey through the teachings of yoga, beyond the mat. Tina began her yoga journey in 2016 in Ubud, Bali followed by her first 200-hour teacher training at Yoga Kula in Vienna. She recently completed a 300-hour professional Vinyasa Yoga teacher training in Goa, India under the guidance and mentorship of senior teacher, Joan Hyman. With a teaching style inspired by Iyengar and Ashtanga, Tina strongly resonates with the Ashtanga Yoga system and continues as a devoted Ashtanga Practitioner.  On a recent 3-month journey to India, Tina studied Ashtanga with Saraswati Jois, the daughter of Sri K. Pattabhi Jois, and dove deep into authentic traditions of yoga inclusive of yoga philosophy, pranayama, and Sanskrit scriptures. Today, Tina helps students realize the endless transformative benefits which only a committed practice of traditional yoga systems can offer. 

Tina is the force behind The School of Yoga's business creativity. Passionate about authentic connection and community, Tina loves to empower individuals while discovering their dharma and bringing to life their soul's purpose.  As a former COO, holding an eMBA, she has the ability to see the big picture.  She uses the combined wisdom and power of business, coupled with holistic tools from a variety of Eastern and Western traditions.  Her mission is to help her clients create consciousness, abundance, joy, freedom, and purpose in their lives during transitions and beyond.  Tina´s passion for aesthetics and experience has led her to a unique path and role as Business & Creative Director of the School of Yoga.
