Kristina was born in Athens Greece in 1971. Following studies in theatre and dance, she started practicing Astanga Vinyasa Yoga at the age of nineteen with her first teacher, Linda Kapetaniou.
From 1993 until 1998 she deepened her study under the guidance of the renowned senior teacher Derek Ireland, a legendary figure in the dissemination of Astanga teachings in Europe. For various periods from 1995-‐2002 she received direct instruction from Sri K. Pattabhi Jois in Myosore, India. She eventually assisted in Teacher Trainings at the Practice Place in Greece, in Goa, India, as well as in Triopetra, Crete–the first home of Triopetra Yoga Practice, a name and place widely associated with intensive Astanga training in an authentic Mysore style.
From 1998, Kristina taught throughout Europe, founding or co-‐founding Astanga centers in London and Brighton, England. In 2003 she returned to Athens to start Astanga Yoga Athens.
Kristina was qualified to teach by Sri K. Pattabhi Jois in 2002. She has practiced intensively with Sharath Rangaswamy, and continues to deepen her practice with Manju Pattabhi Jois. She teaches Primary, Intermediate and Third Sequence and she offers classes, workshops,
retreats, and teacher trainings all year around in Greece, Europe, and Asia.

Special Guest Musician Wim De Winter and Shivo'ham
Wim de Winter and Shivo'ham will present aspects of North-Indian Dhrupad music of the Dagarbani tradition in its connection to Nada Yoga ( Yoga of sound).
Wim is a student of Ustad Sayeduddin Dagar, a master from the 19th generation of the Dagar family. Shvio'ham is a Surbahar and Vina musician.
Dhrupad is an ancient & (mostly vocal) devotional music which originated from singing in Vedic temples, as a kind of prayer to the divine. It is presented as an offering in sound, based on the sound "Om" and sacred mantras. Later developed as court and concert-music, it has never lost its devotional origin and contains the practice of 'Nad Yoga'. The music leads the singer to share and slowly develop the experience of 'raga', a melodic form in which every sound is meaningful and brought to life. It present subtle connections between sounds and moods and emotions.
