Kiersten K. Mooney
Owner of Bala Vinyasa Yoga Studio and Certified Baptiste Power Vinyasa Yoga Teacher.
Teaching
Kiersten's students enjoy her lighthearted perspective, grounded by insights that help sustain them through an intense practice.
Her strong background in physiology enables her to assess a student's current picture of health and/or limitations, guiding
them into effective adjustments for their needs. Kiersten's classes gracefully blend a sense of self-acceptance with an invitation
to exceed any unnecessary self-imposed limitations. The core of her personal practice and teaching is Baptiste Power Vinyasa Flow,
an energizing sequence of yoga postures designed to facilitate physical and spiritual transformation.

an experience." -Kiersten
