Chris has been doing many styles of yoga for thirty years. In 2006 completed a 500 hour Forrest Teacher Training Foundation course and in 2007 completed the Forrest Yoga Advanced Teacher Training (75 hours). She has assisted Ana Forrest at a weekend workshops, teacher training intensives and the Yoga Journal Conference in Boston as well as completing an apprenticeship at Back Bay Yoga in Boston with Lynne Begier where she taught for a summer.

One constant style Chris has done is Iyengar Yoga and she is currently enrolled in teacher training in the Iyengar system with Patricia Walden. She studies weekly with Iyengar teachers Patricia Walden, Peentz Dubble, and Karen Wenc.

Chris is also a certified group exercise instructor and personal trainer, and I became certified in Yoga Tune Up. Yoga Tune Up takes exercises from many movement systems to help students gain the strength, mobility, and mindfulness to do classic yoga poses.

Chris is a certified Forrest Yoga teacher and an RYT (Registered Yoga Teacher) at the 500 hour level. For more about Chris see www.tomariken.com .
