Meet Our Teaching Team
Olivia Adams
When you arrive at my yoga class, you can anticipate a well-balanced practice that integrates mobility, strength, flexibility, and balance, with an emphasis on linking breath to movement. I bring a strong foundation in movement from my background in dance, along with over four years of experience teaching yoga.
My approach blends elements from my Ashtanga training with a primarily vinyasa-based style, incorporating strength-focused movement to build stability and confidence. I also draw on my dance background to encourage fluidity and space for creative expression.
I am preparing to return to school to study physical therapy and look forward to integrating a deeper understanding of body mechanics into my teaching.
Outside of yoga, I stay engaged in running, climbing, biking, and strength training, and I’m hoping to get back into a dance studio! I also enjoy painting. Movement and art are central to my life, and I value sharing them within a supportive, connected community.
Class: Grounding Yoga
Tracy Bartella
Practicing with me is an invitation to explore your mental focus and attention as much as the physical movement of your body.
My approach is built on a foundation of the precision of Iyengar yoga and has developed over the years. It is informed by my own journey and experience in my body, various yoga lineages that I’ve practiced, strength training and coaching, Pilates, mobility work, the changing physical needs of pregnancy and postpartum, and study of the breath and breathing practices. I focus on the duality of guiding students into poses, movements, and sensations, and providing the space to explore beyond what I cue into their own experience.
In 2014, I trained in Iyengar style yoga under Eileen Muir at Karuna Yoga in Northampton MA and have been teaching since. I also hold certifications in strength and conditioning coaching. My continuing education has focused on yoga’s effects on body physiology and the nervous system, and includes introspective breathwork therapy.
I view class as an experience that is co-created by everyone present and will often ask if there are poses or body parts people want to visit as we move. I aim to offer students a grounded, held, space to integrate the working of their minds and bodies by focusing attention on their felt experience.

Cara Campbell
I took my first yoga class as a freshman in college, hoping for an easy A. I got the A, and, over 15 years later, I’m still learning “how to do yoga”. Having explored many different yogic traditions, from Ashtanga to Bikram to Hatha to Vinyasa to Yin, I approach yoga as an embodied form of mindful awareness, with an emphasis on curiosity, play, and balanced functional strength and flexibility. I enjoy infusing my classes with creative transitions, intentional movement, and slow, steady breath to balance and calm the body, mind and nervous system.
I received my 200-hour certification from the Keene Yoga Center and spent 9 months living and working at The Sanctuary at Two Rivers retreat in Costa Rica, studying yoga and Ayurveda. When I’m not teaching or practicing yoga, I enjoy exploring the great outdoors, cooking and reading.

When you step into my class, I hope it feels like coming home and taking a deep breath. For the past five years, I've had the privilege of guiding students through yoga practices that support not only physical well-being, but also emotional resilience and nervous system health.
I am a practicing Registered Nurse, and my background in nursing deeply influences the way I teach. I am fascinated by the connection between the body, mind, and nervous system, and I believe that healing often begins when we create enough space to slow down and listen. Whether in healthcare, motherhood, or on the yoga mat, I am continually drawn to practices that cultivate presence, self-awareness, and sustainable well-being.
My classes are grounded, approachable, and free from pressure or performance. I strive to create an environment where students feel safe to meet themselves exactly where they are, honoring the reality that every body and every season of life is different.
When I'm not teaching, you'll likely find me tending my garden, caring for my family and farm, creating with my hands, or finding beauty in the rhythms of simple living. These experiences shape my teaching and remind me daily that growth, like healing, cannot be rushed.
Class: Candlelight Restorative Yoga
Leanne Horvath
Classes: Rise with Resilience + Deep ConditioningThe framework I teach from emphasizes a felt sense of energetics and personal exploration from the inside out. Rather than teaching poses, I guide my class towards curiosity and awareness with the goal that the poses emerge from that awareness.
In my classes you can expect to do more than follow along with a sequence. Through thoughtful prompts, subtle refinements, and an invitation to explore, you have the opportunity to develop a deeper relationship with your own body and find your own unique expression of the shapes and movements. In my class, you can expect to become more aware of how and why you move, where and why to play with tension, how you find strength, and how to trust your own intuition. You can expect to leave my class with a felt sense of alignment, mobility, and endurance as well as confidence and joy.
My teaching style comes from a unique combination of decades of yogic practice and wisdom, athleticism, creativity, and playfulness. I’ve been described as an approachable, quirky, and often humorous teacher, while simultaneously offering great depth of study and practice. You may notice influences from my vast movement background including Martial Arts, Dance, Pilates, Weightlifting and more. I aim to bring a balance of humor, strength, resilience, radical authenticity in all things that I do.
Erin Langille
Practicing with me, you can expect to leave buzzing in the best way, like you remembered something important about yourself. I genuinely believe that challenge on the mat sets you up for everything that comes after it. You are more capable than you might realize, and I hope to remind you of that.
I came to yoga the way many former athletes do. As a competitive gymnast and distance runner, movement was my first language, and yoga gave me a way to rediscover power and fluid motion as an adult, enabling me to more fully enjoy trail running, skiing, cycling, paddleboarding and daily movement.
My classes draw on fifteen years of personal practice and my 200-hour YTT with Leanne Horvath at Vira Bhava Yoga (2023). I teach with curiosity and an appreciation for the balance of strength and stillness. My classes weave vinyasa with Pilates-inspired movement and deep stretching, because I want you to feel both strong and nimble when you walk out the door.
Class: Beginning Winter 2027
Mary Potter
Classes: Circle Flow, Fluid Flow, Vigorous VinyasaMy approach to yoga is engaging, dynamic, and energetic, with a strong emphasis on mobility, movement, and body awareness. My classes invite students to explore movement with curiosity while building strength, confidence, and a deeper connection between breath and body.
My yoga journey deepened in 2023 through teacher training, where I completed my 200-hour certification through Vira Bhava School under the teachings and guidance of Leanne Horvath. As part of that training, I also had the opportunity to study at Shamballah Yoga & Meditation in Sintra, Portugal. Continuing education has remained an important part of my practice and teaching. In 2024, Budokon Mixed Movement University in Montana expanded my understanding of movement, mobility, and functional strength. Most recently, in 2026, Flow School with Bonnie Weeks offered another opportunity to deepen my knowledge and approach to teaching.
Classes are designed to encourage greater awareness of the body, connect movement with breath, and explore individual strength and mobility. There is space to challenge yourself while still maintaining curiosity, playfulness, and presence. Ultimately, the hope is that students leave feeling more connected—to their breath, their bodies, and their own capacity for movement.
Kat Wood
When you practice with me, you can expect to be challenged—not through chaturangas or down dogs (those can be valuable too!), but through exploring your body in ways you may not have before.
I see movement as a conversation; one that helps you better understand how your body works. My teaching is rooted in curiosity and shaped by a wide range of lifelong practices, from cycling, swimming, and running to yoga, Pilates, strength training, hiking, and floor-based movement.
My classes draw from over a decade of training, including massage, Structural Integration, self-massage, functional movement, and traditional yoga practices.
You’ll experience classes in themed 4-6 week blocks to allow for continuity in learning. Each practice is thoughtful, exploratory, and designed to help you build awareness of the subtle foundations of movement. My hope is to give you the tools to continue that exploration on your own.
Class: Movement Fusion
Kristin Froling
Class: Rest + Restore
I completed my 200-hour yoga teacher training with Julianna Tackacs in Peterborough, studying alignment-based Vinyasa. I also completed the Relax and Renew Level 1 training course with Judith Hanson Lasater, deepening my training in Restorative Yoga and the practice of using props, breath, and supported poses to encourage deep rest and relaxation.
Sara Henry
My teaching style is inclusive, deliberate, and thoughtful. To me, we are garden beds full of flowers and we all can benefit from the water of yoga: nourishment, patience, curiosity, space, stillness and movement. I love to offer variations so that everyone can follow along. I focus on areas where we most commonly hold tension or tightness. Whether your roots in yoga are deep or just beginning to grow, there will be something here in my classes for you.
I received my yoga teacher training in 2018 from Kripalu School for Yoga & Health. I’ve studied and practiced yoga for the past twenty years in California, Thailand, and here in New Hampshire. I live in a meditation practice center called MorningSun in Alstead, NH.
In addition to teaching yoga, I’m a massage therapist, meditation teacher, and retreat organizer. These parts of my life inform my yoga classes in my knowledge of anatomy and physiology, mental health, and community. I grew up in an athletic family, playing sports since a very young age. After I endured a serious concussion, yoga was a major part of my healing and recovery. Since then, I dwell happily on the path of yoga for stress relief, self care, and building community. I feel so grateful to be alive and breathing!

Jordana Korsen
I am a glassblower, an educator, a gym junkie and a music freak. I try to blend what I do with who I am to connect interests and strengths. I have found that mediums or disciplines that bring people together are the creators of community.
I am an instigator of people, creativity and movement. Combining movement and music are what I celebrate most as a group fitness instructor. As a glassblower, an arts educator and fitness instructor I find a neat and clear thread that ties up what I do and who I am. I thrive on creating a space where people can find a feeling of challenge, achievement, success, strength, creativity and comfort. It’s awesome to give people the chance to see what they can do. I am inspired and energized by my work and community. I teach yoga, spinning, group muscle, balance and stability classes locally.

Alisa Loughlin
After a transitional move from Rhode Island to Virginia in my early 20s, I found my way to yoga as a way to build community in a new location. What started as an activity to fill time and provide entertainment grew into a deep appreciation for many movement modalities. In my yoga practice, I enjoy experiencing a wide variety of teachers and gravitate towards playful, athletic, and flowing classes. I completed my 200 hour teaching training at The Center School of Yoga in Harrisonburg, VA with Suzanne McCahill Perrine in 2018.
In teaching, I aim to encourage students to experiment and to not take themselves too seriously. I firmly believe that there is no such thing as being bad at yoga or a perfect pose. I am also a Certified Personal Trainer and enjoy introducing strength training to curious yogis and other movement enthusiasts. When I am not practicing yoga or lifting weights, I enjoy spending time with family and friends, cooking, and walking my dog, Donny.
Class: Power Vinyasa
Emma Tshibambi
I am a local baker who aims, first and foremost, to make the world around me more delicious. I was raised between Keene, New Hampshire and New York City where I grew up among Aikido dojos, Tai Chi studios, and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu schools. Early on, this instilled the importance of physical practice, personal growth, mindfulness, and self discipline which are so fundamental to meditative martial arts and yoga practices.
A few years later, I encountered yoga through a high school program, led by Meenakshi Moses. I went to my first yoga class in my early teens and attended begrudgingly, to say the least - I strode into battle armed only with a free guest pass, a water bottle, and an attitude problem. It came as quite a surprise that the class was invigorating, challenging, and shared much DNA with the martial arts she’d come to love. It would be these same principals and philosophies that eventually lead me to study yoga through Vira Bhava Yoga and begin teaching.
