Rina

Instructor

Rina first found her love for yoga in a small convivial Bikram studio in Fullerton, California. Little did she know she would walk out with soaked bangs and the perpetual desire to come back.

Refusing to let her wild imagination ruin a nice time (all the time), she enrolled in yoga teacher training in 2021 for some objectivity and healing. Eventually, Rina adopted a newfound philosophy of the world around her. She believes there is a safe space in the yoga world where individuals can embody a practice — on and off the mat — that caters to their unique bodies and expression of being. In her classes, Rina incorporates mindfulness, breath awareness and finding alignment in the mind and body. She enjoys teaching yin, vinyasa and breathing techniques to promote wellness. Her purpose as a yoga teacher is to hold space for students to become more fortified in their own personalized practice in order to seek wellness and exist with the phenomenal world.

When Rina isn't falling out of a pose and struggling to stay in the present, she is freelance writing, chasing down her loud, life-loving toddler or wallowing in quiet moments with her husband.
