Victoria- Current Student
Nourishing Storm is not 'just' a yoga studio. It is a community, a safe and comfortable space, and a place to learn and grow. As a lifelong learner, I have appreciated the style of the curriculum in that it offers both immersive topics and learning, and opportunities to delve into areas of personal interest.
The 300 hr YTT is fluid and allows the student to engage in a pace that fits for them. Consistent 1:1 time is scheduled for students in addition to the group activities and learning. Kristin provides focused conversations and guidance that help students think more deeply about their intentions and how to 'live like a yogi'. In addition, there is a great deal of choice and autonomy with the Move Mountains programming, which has given me the opportunity to focus on areas of learning that are most relevant to me as a yoga student and a business owner.

Embarking on the 300YTT journey was a natural progression after feeling adrift post-200YTT graduation. The moment I saw the live announcement on the NS website, I didn’t hesitate to reach out to Kristin to enroll immediately.
Being a student in the 300TT has not only deepened by understanding of yoga, it has opened my eyes to aspects of life I had been missing, particularly in reconnecting with nature and prioritizing self-care. The training goes beyond the asanas, guiding me to appreciate the profound connection between mind, body, and the world around us. The training has become a transformative journey, not just in defining my teaching style but in evolving as a better human being. It is a journey into a richer, more conscious existence.
Note from the Lead Trainer & Founder of Nourishing Storm
“Whatever happens, just keep smiling and lose yourself in love.” - Rumi
Hello and welcome! I set out on my personal wellness journey in 2002. I was drawn to help others heal and find wellness through movement, awareness, and nutrition.
After being certified as an AFAA Group Fitness Instructor, I found yoga and completely fell in love with the peace it brought me as well as the connection I felt with every living being. Since then I’ve completed my 500 RYT certification from Shanti Yoga School, Holistic Health Coach Certification from the Institute for Integrative Nutrition, and more.
Now it’s my honor to empower a community with the life-changing peace, compassion, and awareness that yoga brings.
