Kristen Fortier
Kristen is a parent of a beautiful toddler and a day-time caregiver to four more. Her journey into the world of yoga began a few years ago during their pregnancy, where she found peace and empowerment in its practice. Yoga became the cornerstone of an enjoyable pregnancy, an empowering birth, and a mindful physical recovery postpartum.
Since those transformative experiences, Kristen has dedicated countless hours to self-study and various courses, delving into the ethical and physical aspects of yoga, as well as the perinatal journey. Beyond being a certified yoga instructor, they also have a doula business specializing labor & birth and postpartum care. Kristen's passion lies in empowering pregnant individuals and their families, guiding and supporting them to embrace the natural beauty of pregnancy, birth, postpartum and parenting with confidence.
For Kristen, yoga isn't just a personal practice; it's a means to deepen her spiritual growth, cultivate strength and balance in the body and mind, and share the transformative power of these practices with others. Grateful for the opportunity to share and learn within the community, Kristen feels honored to contribute to the collective journey of well-being and self-discovery.
