Kirsten Onsgard

RYT-200

Kirsten (they/them) is a Chicago-based instructor passionate about creating an accessible, welcoming and safe environment in the yoga room.

Kirsten came to yoga during grad school. As a recovering perfectionist, the yoga room was a space to celebrate their own personal journey without comparison to others. On their mat, they were able to practice getting into their body and experiencing the present moment.

They completed their 200-hour yoga training at Zen Yoga Garage in Chicago, and continued their education with a 65-hour advanced training in psychologically-sensitive yoga at Room to Breathe.

Kirsten’s classes are trauma-sensitive, grounding, challenging and well-sequenced. Their classes help students grow in their physical yoga practice while supporting their psychological and spiritual well-being.
