“Yoga has been a part of my life for over 11 years, and my practice has helped me grow stronger, more flexible, fearless, more centered and more free both on and off the mat. Yoga inspires me to live each moment more mindfully and I receive immense joy from sharing this life changing practice with others!
I completed my 200 hour Teacher Training at Ozark Mountain Yoga in 2018. I have also trained under Mindful Schools, am a 200Hr RYT with Yoga Alliance. I am a current student of Ashley Turner’s 300HR YTT Yoga, Psyche, Soul Teacher Training that melds Western Psychology with the Eastern Yogic Tradition to create a holistic path to mental health and thriving by combining the 2 practices and am finishing my Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology. I am always looking for ways to bring Mindfulness and Yoga into our community’s EVERY DAY Life, at schools, places or business and public gatherings! I will always be a student of the practice and am deeply grateful for the loving wisdom my teachers have shared with me. I stand on the shoulders of the giants who have come before me as teachers.

LINDY CHRONKITE
After graduating from Oklahoma State University with a Health Science major, I began working as an Exercise Physiologist at St. John Health Club in Tulsa. I then changed careers and moved to Florida, and while there was introduced to yoga for the first time. I continued practicing yoga, but didn't become a serious student until 2010. Not only did it address my physical needs, but provided a certain peace within that helped guide me to live each moment with mindfulness and purpose. Yoga lit the fire of inspiration that propelled me toward finding my true authentic self, and I want to help others to do the same.
KATIE CARTER
I began practicing yoga in 2016, to help manage my pain from a car accident. Throughout my practice and training, I’ve learned modifications to help people of all fitness and ability levels to achieve the benefits of yoga. It’s not about twisting yourself into a perfect pose, but rather using poses (and small movements) to learn things about your own body - and yourself. As I learned more, I wanted to share with others. I received my RYT 200 from Dustin Turner in 2019. I’d love to share what I’ve learned with you!
KELSEY ESTHER
I have been studying and practicing yoga for the last 10 years. Yoga has had a profound impact on my life and well-being. I am honored to teach what I have learned.
I approach teaching through my understanding of yoga tradition, biomechanics, and nervous system regulation. Over time and training, I learned to teach the multidisciplinary practices that I’ve felt, and research has found, to be the most efficient and effective. The wisdom of my teachers informs and supports my teaching and keeps it rooted in tradition. I am grateful to my lineage and hope to honor it the best I can.
My goal as a teacher is to provide an environment and instruction to teach my students tools to see and care for their whole selves. Helping them to recognize the effect that precise and integrative techniques can have on their wellbeing. With the hope that they will utilize these tools throughout their lives.
Kelsey is a lead trainer for Movement School Yoga Teacher Training. You can learn more about her and her online programs at kelseyesther.com

Ever since I first journeyed onto my mat and experienced the peace, community, and joy that yoga offers me it has been an important part of my life.
