Ashtanga & Vinyasa Yoga teacher Mandy Kruger

Mandy has been interested in alternative healing modalities and transformational mind and bodywork practices for most of her life. Being born and raised in Las Vegas with the interesting juxtaposition of the emptiness of the vast desert landscapes with the excessive over-stimulation of the blinking lights of tourism lead to a search for a more meaningful life. After a motorcycle accident that caused a cervical spine injury in her late teens she moved to the Pacific Northwest for greener pastures. Yoga, Chinese Medicine, Massage Therapy and Holistic Nutrition all were pivotal modalities in her process of healing. Thus, it was a natural course to deepen her knowledge of these wisdom-based systems.

Mandy completed a 500-hour comprehensive yoga teacher training in 2002 in Thailand, and a six-month study of the basics of Ayurveda in India. She received her massage therapy license in 2006 at East West College in Portland, Oregon, and a Masters degree in Depth Psychology at Pacifica Graduate Institute in Santa Barbara in 2012. She has continued an on-going study with senior teachers and contemporary evolutionary thinkers in the field of alternative medicine and yoga. However, beyond all these degrees and credentials her own yoga practice has provided the most in-depth learning, currently, under the guidance of Sundernath (Shandor Remete) and Emma Balnaves of the Shadow yoga school. Mandy is currently in training with the Somatic Experiencing Trauma Institute.
