Kristen Verderame

Kristen began practicing yoga more than 20 years ago as an athlete looking for ways to strategically incorporate yoga into a training regime for prevention of further injuries. Soon after, she signed up for the community-focused teacher training program at Embrace Yoga in Washington, DC, and obtained her 200-hour YTT certification under the tutelage of the ‘Spiritually Fly’ yoga/wellness practitioner Faith Hunter. Not only did she obtain the knowledge she sought to inform her athletic training, but her eyes were opened to a wonderful community and a philosophy that now informs every aspect of her life.

As a 300-hr Sun & Moon certified teacher, Kristen teaches vinyasa classes that incorporate strength, fitness, philosophy and pranayama. She has also completed Yoga Shred and is Level 1 Reiki Master trainings. Outside of yoga, Kristen works as an attorney practicing as general counsel and in government relations and cybersecurity, and is very proud of her two grown children.
