Meet the Team
Meghan Ksiazek
Meghan received her 200 HR YTT Vinyasa at Frog Lotus International and 100 HR TEP at Laughing River Yoga. She’s
continued her education with Sadie Nardini, Simon Park, Nevine Michaan, and many more.
“My life would not be the same if I couldn’t share yoga with others. My students are my greatest teachers and while I have studied under many amazing teachers, my students continue to be the inspiration and rewards for my practice. I have been teaching since 2008 and have taught Vinyasa, Hatha, Pre-natal, Mommy and Me, Kid’s and Restorative Yoga. Each type of yoga I have experienced opens more eyes for me to see with. May yoga fill your life with love and light as it has mine.”
Cheryl Small
Cheryl discovered yoga in 1997 and couldn’t believe what a profound effect it had on her life. Yoga has sustained and nourished her through life’s greatest challenges since then, and she remains in gratitude for her practice. Cheryl attended the Bikram Yoga School of India in 2010 and received her certificate in Hatha Yoga at Laughing River Yoga in 2013. She continued her training at Yoga Vermont studying Ashtanga yoga, and will remain a forever student. Cheryl teaches classes from her heart and keeps them fun and inspiring. She always encourages her students to receive themselves exactly as they are in every moment. She looks forward to sharing, learning, and growing in this beautiful yoga community.
Andy Mink
Andy is a practitioner of the 26 + 2 Bikram Series, and he welcomes newcomers to approach hot yoga as a moving mediation, with self compassion, acceptance, and patience. Progress comes with time and dedication to the practice.
Brianna Wilson
Brianna lives in Hyde Park with her wife, Cara and her puppy, Rhubarb. She has been practicing yoga since childhood and knows it’s been instrumental in developing her awareness, patience and compassion of herself and the world around her. She recently completed her yoga teacher training at Laughing River Yoga in Winooski and is very excited to share her passion for both teaching and yogic practice with folks in more rural spaces; welcoming in all capabilities, identities, and expressions!
Christie Mainart
Christie Mainart has been practicing & studying yoga for 10 years, with an interest in both yoga’s modernized physical practice, and its rich philosophies emergent from its numerous ancient sources. She has completed a 200-hour teacher training at Dhyana Studio in Sebastopol, CA, as well as a Yin Yoga training through Yoga International. Each program has played a uniquely wonderful role in helping her more deeply understand the functionality of yoga poses for individuals over merely aesthetics.
Christie believes that yoga, which was originally intended to unify one’s mind with the divine, remains a living, dynamic, & ever-evolving map with underlying golden threads for self-realization today. She believes that the current interest in yoga’s physical practice is a calling from the heart of our culture’s humanity that longs for many things, such as the detoxification & purification of our physiology, a disciplined practice that burns up our stories & stills the rough waters of the mind, to improve our breathing habits for optimal health, & to inspire us to actively cultivate & more fully embody our inherent ability to thrive in well-being. From here, begins our work.
