Meet Your Instructor: Christine Polak

Christine brings a wealth of experience to her practice, blending her background as a Child & Youth Worker and Reiki Master with her passion for yoga.

Christine's journey into yoga began in 2011, seeking physical improvement. What she discovered was transformative - a practice that offered far more than just physical benefits. Yoga became her source of inner strength, improved focus, and emotional equilibrium during life's challenges.

Inspired by her own growth, Christine completed her Pranalife 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training in 2014. Since then, she's been dedicated to sharing the life-changing benefits of yoga with others. Her classes are infused with warmth, expertise, and a deep understanding of how yoga can enhance every aspect of life.

Why Ryan’s Well Foundation?

Huge personal connection! I've known Ryan since birth and watched in awe as he became a world-changer at just 6 years old. He started by collecting pinecones to earn money for building a well in Africa. That simple beginning has grown into an incredible foundation, bringing clean water to countless places globally. Ryan, now an adult, still leads the way. His story—of one child believing he could make a difference, supported by an incredibly loving family—has inspired and continues to inspire me. It's amazing how much has come from that small, heartfelt start.
