My first experience with Carin was during a yoga retreat that she organized in Carbondale, CO. During the retreat, I experienced a variety of yoga classes with her. Carin’s classes were grounding, inspiring, and transformative. She has a unique gift of guiding you to connect with your body and mind in a way that helps you access deep thoughts and emotions. I left the retreat feeling I had more access to the core me, feeling grounded and centered. Carin’s thoughtfulness was felt in every detail of the retreat, from the purposeful yoga classes and conversations to the hand-made eye pillows, to the nourishing food and culmination of retreat attendees. I continue to practice with Carin at Thrive Yoga, and often access her pre-recorded yoga classes through her website. I feel grateful that I have her guidance in my yoga journey. She is an inspirational human being and radiates warmth and kindness.
