Founder

Christina Raskin

CEO/Founder, E-RYT 500 HR

Christina has 20 years of teaching experience and has trained all over, including in India. She is passionate about marrying education and yoga together to help people grow and transform.  She believes wholeheartedly in the science and soul of yoga. She has used it to transform her own life and seen countless people find more peace through the practice. She truly believes Yoga is for everyone and every body and is inclusive in her teachings.  She is a 500 hr E-RYT (Experience - Registered Yoga Teacher) and owned 2 successful studios for 8 years. She recently sold them to travel more and teach internationally. She was the National Training Director at Oxygen Yoga & Fitness for seven years. She developed and led her Yoga Teacher Training program during that time under the Oxygen umbrella as Oxygen's 200hr program (O2 Yoga Teacher Training).  She then decided to leave Oxygen Yoga & Fitness to expand her school, Soul Thrive Yoga Teacher Training. 

Here at Soul Thrive Yoga we have noticed a gap in the yoga world, there are many, teacher training programs that lack cutting edge, high quality education regarding anatomy and teaching methodology. 

In addition, they often only focus on the physical practice, leaving out the mindfulness and philosophy that can be so helpful and healing.  We believe it is important to teach ALL aspects of yoga, honouring it's roots and giving our students a quality education.

“Christina is one of the best, if not the best, instructor I have ever had the pleasure of learning from – whether inside or outside of the yoga studio! Christina’s passion to share her love of yoga/pilates shines through in every gentle instruction, graceful movement, and powerful pose she presents to the students. Yoga is now an integral part of my lifestyle largely due to the strong foundation developed in every practice that I have learned and will continue to learn from Christina. I look forward to seeing her smiling face and positive outlook before, during, and after each class. Thank you Christina for bringing the best out of me! ”
