Kristen began her career with health and fitness while in college (1994) and discovered her passion for group fitness and personal training. She competed in several fitness/bikini competitions in her early 20s. While Kristen learned a lot of training techniques and how to diet to look good, she also learned what she do not want in her life...deprivation, low-self esteem, overtraining injuries, and health issues. She looked good on the outside, but was most definitely not healthy. Her shifted gears and she began practicing yoga (2001) and eating a plant-based diet. Kristen began teaching Power Vinyasa yoga soon after, then became a certified holistic health coach. It was just what she needed physically and spiritually to be what she now knows as healthy inside and out. Her life's work is to share this passion for health and wellness with her students and clients.

Meredith's passion for fitness has woven through every chapter of her life. From her early days playing basketball and Cross Country, she embraced an active lifestyle. Even after the glory days of sports, she kept the flame alive by immersing herself in mountain sports upon moving to the Rocky Mountains in 2010. Entering a fitness class brought back that familiar sense of accomplishment and drive from her athletic days. Drawn to fitness and yoga, Meredith embarked on a journey that made her an integral part of O2. In 2019, Meredith took on a new role as O2's Marketing Director.

Nicky practices feeling the power of each pose and the depth of her breath - she was a college athlete and have always enjoyed exercise, sports, and the feedback of strength, capability, and energy her body provided when correctly engaged. Her classes tend to reflect what she enjoys about the practice - they are athletic with a solid warm up, long holds, and peak poses that are taught in an approachable way, always giving alternatives and options for advancement. Students definitely build heat progressively through class, a healthy sweat develops midway and, by the end, are meant to feel balanced, even and mentally and physically strong.

Shannon came to the practice of yoga when in dire need of some self-care as a brand new school teacher in Boston, MA right out of college in 2006. She found Back Bay Yoga Studio and when it comes to practicing, hasn't looked back. As a Health and Physical Education teacher, with an educational background in Exercise Science, the asana (posture) and vinyasa practice hooked her. The movement, the flow, the structure and alignment made her naturally feel confident with her strength and mobility, and it was fun! What kept her, with its rewarding challenges, and eventually drove her to sign up for her first teacher training, was the philosophy, the guidance.. the Eight Limbed Path. Ashtanga/the eight limbed path, as a more complete practice in and outside of a yoga studio, was an anchor and guide for life that Shannon had needed and continues to study and practice today. She is a lifelong student and lover of learning, more than a teacher, but as a teacher she strives to inspire this love of learning and to inspire students to practice Svadhyaya (self-study). Her teaching works to inspire curiosity for her students about their own thoughts, words and actions, to teach compassion and observation without judgment towards self and others, and to help students grow their relationship with the world around them, all on and off the mat with their practice. She teaches a strong asana class, using intelligent (and fun!) sequencing, informed by Ayurveda, the sister science of yoga, with a solid focus on alignment not to make students' practices or poses perfect, but to hone the skills of mindfulness and attention training through asana practice.

Chelsea’s yoga journey began in 2019 and deepened into a dedicated meditation practice in 2022 through Breathe Meditation and Wellness. She has been teaching yoga in Dallas studios for five years and guiding formal meditation for two. Yoga first found her during a challenging chapter of life, when she was seeking relief from panic disorder following a car accident. From her very first day on the mat, Chelsea felt an undeniable connection—yoga quickly became not only a source of peace and calm but also a practice she knew she needed to share with others. Leaving each class with a profound sense of presence and renewal, Chelsea was inspired to leave her previous career and dedicate herself fully to teaching. Her approach emphasizes that yoga doesn’t have to look perfect; it is about the process of letting go, unlearning old patterns, and rediscovering new ways to connect with mind, body, and breath. Chelsea remains, as she says, ‘always a student, sometimes a teacher.’

Chelsea has been a yoga practitioner for over 12 years and her personal practice is an ever-evolving path to mindfulness.

After graduating with a Master's degree in Business, she realized she wanted to share her passion for yoga with others, in hopes of facilitating the healing elements that yoga provides. Chelsea completed her 200-hour teacher training with OrganicSoul early 2015 and her continuing education extends to chakra, prenatal, restorative, yin and mat pilates.
