Meet Irina

Today, Irina is dedicated to sharing the joy and transformative power of yoga with people from all walks of life.

Whether you're looking for relaxation, strength, or a vibrant exercise experience, her classes provide a welcoming and nurturing space for growth. Irina empowers individuals to discover their own potential, making yoga a joyful and transformative journey for all.

Her lifelong passion for yoga was sparked at the age of five when she began learning from her father in Russia. This practice has been a constant source of joy and inspiration throughout her life, accompanying her on her journey to the United States.

In 2007, Irina embarked on a transformative two-year apprenticeship at Yoga for Exercise Studio, where she deepened her understanding and honed her skills. Working alongside Cheryl Zak at Forsyth Yoga Center, she enriched her practice and gained profound insights into the benefits of yoga.

Her commitment to holistic fitness led her to earn certification in bodyArt fitness in 2012, under the guidance of renowned instructor Robert Steinbacher. This dynamic approach, rooted in physical therapy, broadened her ability to offer a diverse and comprehensive fitness experience.
