Meditation and Yoga have since become part of his daily life, and a day without practice has become unimaginable. Danny spent the last seven years in Asia practicing, studying, and teaching.He first began exploring Thailand in 2007 as part of his passion for Muay Thai.The more time he spent in Thailand, the more he felt drawn to Buddhism.After attending numerous meditation retreats, Danny felt the need to deepen his understanding of the teachings of the Buddha.He became a student at The International Buddhist College in Thailand, where he spent one year living with monks, practicing and studying Buddhist teachings.

Although Danny spent the first years of his spiritual journey practicing Vipassana Meditation, he has since explored many philosophies and techniques from different traditions: Non-dual teachings, Hatha Yoga, Zen, Qi-gong, Transcendental Meditation, Kriya Yoga, AYP (Advanced Yoga Practice), and more.

Yoga quickly became her source of rejuvenation after experiencing burnout numerous times from working in the entertainment industry. In 2015, Kirstin left film and media, turning to alternative therapies, starting out as a masseuse and completing her yoga training in 2017 with Recline Yoga Studio in Namibia. This opened the door wider to explore the healing arts through movement, bodywork, breathwork and meditation. In 2019, Kirstin left Namibia to explore international terrain. She traveled to Bali to study Qigong and completed a Vipassana meditation retreat which marked one of many spiritual awakenings. After 3 months of working as a Massage and Yoga Therapist on a magical private island, Mnemba, off the coast of Zanzibar, she settled down in Koh Phangan, Thailand.

She’s lived in Koh Phangan for 3 years now and is grateful to know that her time at One Yoga is part of an incredible journey that has only just begun. She recently experienced the highlight of her yoga career leading her first Yoga Teacher Training in July 2022. Although teaching yoga is not her sole focus, it is the constant transformative element in the practice that helps her grow and rediscover her true self over and over again.

Kirstin believes that the world is undergoing a major upgrade in consciousness and wants to help guide the ones who are ready to transition to a higher paradigm. She wants to make Yoga accessible to everyone without losing the authentic essence of this sacred, powerful discipline. Kirstin has taught and helped people from all across the board heal and reconnect to their bodies: starting at a mental hospital, massage clients, and teaching yoga in-studio, privately, to tourists, corporates, and professional athletes. “It is witnessing the transformation of my students and of myself that keeps me returning to the beautiful practice and science of yoga.”
