About Me

A lover of music, movies, and movement. Ethan’s teaching style draws from the traditional Ashtanga Vinyasa and Jivamukti Yoga, while mixing in functional mobility, elemental playlist-driven sequencing, and sometimes simple, silly feel-good somatic exercises. Ethan reconnected with his practice after suffering some hardships in his early twenties (as we do) and eventually sought out his own certification on Bowen Island. Since, he has had the privilege and pleasure to teach in some of the most beautiful and reputable studios in Vancouver, and hopes to one day take his offerings around the world!

About Me

Hannah’s love for movement has always been a strong force in her life. Growing up dancing, she always had an awareness of how medicinal movement is to our bodies and mind. After her final year dancing she found her way to her yoga mat where her love for yoga asana took flight. After many years of yoga asana being the root of her practice, she felt called to explore this practice much deeper than just the physical layer. She has gathered her knowledge by spending over 500 hours in trainings and time spent with her spiritual teachers and her own svādhyāya (self studies), spiritual pilgrimages to India, Bali, and the Philippines.

In her classes, you can expect lots of pranayama (breath), mantra (chanting), mythology, and mindful moving meditations through yoga asana.

Hannah is more than humbled to share the teachings of yoga with her students.

Eryn Krieger

Classes

What can students expect in your class?

The body often knows before the mind understands. Before we can explain why we’re overwhelmed, disconnected, uncertain, or exhausted, our bodies are already communicating it. Movement creates space to notice. Through Eryn’s classes, learn to listen more carefully to yourself and reconnect with what matters most. From that place, greater awareness, clarity, and self-trust can emerge.

About Me

Eryn is a certified Leadership & Transition Coach, and movement educator with over 40 years of experience supporting personal growth and well-being. Drawing from a unique blend of yoga, Pilates, meditation, embodied awareness practices, and life coaching, she creates experiences that help people slow down, reconnect with themselves, and move through life with greater clarity, resilience, and self-trust.

What can students expect in your class?

I encourage students to listen intently to their own bodies before anything else. In my classes, I enjoy weaving space for fire (tapas), softness, and breath awareness. Expect a grounding and alignment-based practice that is challenging yet accessible.

About Me

My sister brought me to my first ever yoga class in Vienna, Austria. I remember stumbling non-stop and being drenched in sweat, not understanding any of the instruction – but in that discomfort I found a curiosity for the practice. I was also in search for a new movement modality and something to ground my restless mind in a period where I felt lost. Yoga offered the perfect blend, creating the space for self-inquiry and allowing me to explore how to breath deeply through discomfort.

Classes

What can students expect in your class?

My classes are playful, grounded, and rooted in curiosity. The focus is less on getting it right and more on learning how to observe, helping students build a real relationship with their body, breath, and mind, and find something in the practice that’s genuinely their own.

About Me

During high school, I was fortunate to have a teacher who changed the direction of my life. She showed me the importance of teachers who make you feel safe to question, feel, and explore life more deeply. Through her recommendation, I completed a 10-day Vipassana meditation retreat after high school, which became my first real introduction to meditation and self-inquiry.

From there, I started looking for ways to bring that stillness into my everyday life. As someone who had always loved sport and movement, yoga felt like a natural bridge, and the more I practised, the more questions came up.

What can students expect in your class?

My goal in every class is to create a safe and supportive space for all students, regardless of experience level. My teaching style focuses on stepping out of the business of the mind and tuning into the body as a way to ground into the present. Through guided breathwork and mindful movement, my teaching allows students to connect to the here and now.

About Me

Growing up in Ireland, I wasn’t surrounded by yoga. Despite that, I found it in my teens, practicing in the comfort of my home. When I moved to Vancouver in 2019, I found YYOGA and my practice blossomed. In 2020, I completed a 200hr YTT at YYOGA; a rewarding and meaningful journey during a challenging time. In 2024, I completed a 50hr Yin YTT at YYOGA. YYOGA has become my third space, and I’m thrilled to be able to give back to the community that has given so much to me. For me, yoga has been transformative; offering a safe space to practice discernment and acceptance. I’m passionate about sharing that same empowerment with others.

What should students expect from your class?

I love weaving breath, stories, humour, and themes into class—creating a space where students feel supported, seen, and encouraged to explore their practice both on and off the mat. Come prepared to move, breathe, let go… and have some fun along the way.

About Me

My relationship with yoga began long before I became a teacher. I grew up as a ballet dancer and later worked as a fitness instructor, but it was my first hot yoga class in Vancouver in 2003 that truly changed everything. I realized how often I moved through life holding my breath—and how much that contributed to stress and anxiety in the corporate world. From that moment on, yoga felt like home. In the fall of 2023, I took the leap into Yin Teacher Training and quickly found myself saying yes to more learning. Since then, I’ve completed my 500 RYT with training in Yin, Ayurveda, Chair & Adaptive, Restorative, Trauma-Informed, Advanced Anatomy, Nidra and YHOT. Yoga, for me, is so much more than physical practice. I love weaving breath, stories, humor, and themes into class—creating a space where students feel supported, seen, and encouraged to explore their practice both on and off the mat. Come prepared to move, breathe, let go… and have some fun along the way.
