Karli Janine Erickson … My love + respect for Yoga is fearless. I teach to serve my community with the intention to inspire and support continual growth.
In order to fuel this growth, my teaching style focuses on raising an awareness around the beliefs and patterns that hold us back, moving past our boundaries and towards our highest potential.

As a rock climber, dancer and overall athlete by heart, my experience in constantly pushing my limits has taught me the wisdom that lies behind the art and science of balance. What I have discovered along the way is that the key to balance lies in the subtleties - the art of playing with our boundaries while honoring our limits. This is truly a finesse, a dance between control and surrender that demonstrates the importance of awareness. With (consistent) practice, this exploration sheds light on those unrecognized capabilities that lie within each of us that tend to be shaded by the colorings of our perspective (i.e. doubts and fears). When applied, this practice encourages us to soften around resistance, and we begin to see more of our truth. Through this, we are guided back to balance, we sink into our true essence, and we are fueled as we step into our power and effortlessly thrive.
योगश्चित्तवृत्तिनिरोधः ॥२॥
Yogaś citta-vrtti-nirodhah
"Yoga is the cessation of the fluctuations of the mind."
Sūtra 1.2. Yoga Sūtras of Patañjali
I am devoted to preserving the integrity of Yoga. I am devoted to guiding my students in developing strength, control and balance across every aspect of their being.
As a teacher, I will always be a student.
