Christy Brown (E-RYT 500) has been teaching yoga since 2000. Her studies have taken her to India, where she learned from K. Pattabhi Jois in Ashtanga Yoga and S.N. Goenka in Vipassana Meditation, and to the U.S., where she studied with Sarah Powers and Paul Grilley in Yin Yoga, as well as H.H. the Dalai Lama in Tibetan Buddhism. Blending mindfulness, breath, and alignment, she offers an energizing yet soothing journey into the Self through asana, grounded in peace, justice, and the highest well-being of the Earth and all beings for the next seven generations and beyond.
Before the pandemic, Christy led and co-led retreats, taught weekly Vinyasa and restorative Yin Yoga classes, and facilitated teacher trainings in Marin County and San Francisco. Today, she focuses primarily on yoga and meditation retreats for students of all ages and levels, both locally and internationally, in places of remarkable natural beauty and cultural significance, often paired with hiking.
