Christie Gascoigne has been practicing yoga since 2004. She attended Baron Baptiste Level One Teacher Training in 2009 and completed Cleveland Yoga’s Teacher Training in 2010. Christie assists Tami Schneider in developing aspiring teachers in NE Ohio's popular Power Yoga Teacher Training program at Cleveland Yoga.
Christie teaches based on the assumption that we are more similar than different, so she teaches from her heart and soul. She feels that at the end of the day, we all just want to be happy.
“I have many teachers in my life. The constant ones are: My husband who reminds me that I have lots of work to do in the department of unconditional love; my twin boys, Henry and Sam, who continue to make me a lifelong learner, and my dear mother who, without hesitation, keeps my ego in check.
Christie has profound respect for all of the teachers at Cleveland Yoga. She found CY in 2004 and has made it her home since. “This yoga practice continues to bring me to my sweaty knees, deep in gratitude and joy. It has changed my life”.
Who/what inspires Christie? music, mountains, people, and the power of prayer.
