Krista Wright found her passion for yoga over twenty years ago. Throughout those years, her practice was not consistent.  She discovered hot yoga as a means to stay injury-free during her trainings for marathons. She began teaching yoga in Indianapolis over twelve years ago but attained her RYT 200 in Baptiste inspired yoga several years ago. Her greatest passion in life is empowering others to evolve into the best version of themselves that they can be. She loves to inspire others to encompass all points in their practice-physically, spiritually, mentally and emotionally. Hands-on assist and sharing energy is also one of her favorite things about teaching! Outside of Yoga, she experiences her nirvana through hiking, nature and sharing healing energy as a Reiki practitioner. Her “crazy” is expressed through freelance writing as a creative non-fiction writer.  Currently, she resides 45 minutes outside of Asheville in the Cherokee National Forest.

Meghan finds great joy in teaching yoga, though it is not anything she imagined she would be doing. Despite an early introduction to meditation and other Eastern practices in her high school years and participation in group yoga classes throughout college, Meghan remained a student of the teachings. It was only after her college years that she instinctively turned to yoga as a way to quiet inner turmoil and lead her on a path toward recovery. Now in the role of a teacher, Meghan humbly remains a student, always eager to learn and to share with her students the sacred teachings of yoga, the healing properties of essential oils, and the soul-stirring vibrations of music that accompany her teaching.

Sometimes a light shines through a crack in the darkness. This is how Abbey came to yoga. After enduring betrayal, profound loss and illness, Abbey found happiness in her life. She met her husband, a native of Danville, Indiana, and moved from her home in Illinois to this charming community where Peace through Yoga has been established since 2015. Abbey had never practiced yoga in a studio despite being an active person. It took some time before she found the courage to enroll in a class and she hasn't looked back since. Abbey identifies completing Peace through Yoga's 200-hour teacher training program as one of the best decisions she has made. Yoga improved so many aspects of her life, not only physically, but also mentally and spiritually. Now she is passionate about helping people of all ages cultivate a love for yoga so they may benefit from all that yoga can offer them in life.

Hope's classes will leave you feeling strong and open to all that life has to offer.
