– Christine Gavin
As an academic yoga instructor working within the healthcare sector, my focus is on integrating yoga practices into health and wellness settings. This involves educating clients about the health benefits of yoga, facilitating classes, and promoting holistic well-being through evidence-based techniques.
The breath-work component emphasizes ethical compliance, ensuring that all techniques taught adhere to professional standards and respect participants’ needs and safety. This approach prioritizes integrity and ethical guidelines in teaching breathing exercises, aiming to support both physical and mental health.
From high-altitude Breathwork training in Peru, home to the oldest known civilization in the Americas, where she combined the scaling of Machu Picchu (8,038 feet) with a 200-hour Mystic Yoga Teacher Training certification. She has completed Corewell Health Integrative Medicine’s 300-hour Advanced Teacher Training Academic Yoga in Healthcare Program (the only hospital-based yoga therapy school in the nation). Yoga, meditation, and breathwork as medical interventions include structured research of the Musculoskeletal System, Endocrine and Digestive Health, Neurological and Cardiovascular Health, and Mental Health and Chronic Pain.
Christine is a GPBA-certified, ethically compliant Breathwork Facilitator and a member. Christine is currently doing a Research Residency at Yale University.
