Christen Bakken’s yoga journey began in 1998, looking for a sense of structure and security, yoga provided her with a home-base.  As Christen’s journey continued, she never lost sight of a yoga mat as a place to remember her purpose, to listen for higher wisdom, and to find a reason to play.  After completing her 500-hour teacher training with Rusty Wells her classes became infused with a sense of devotion and service and the yoga mat became a place of personal transformation and healing.  Now as a leader of 200, 300, and 500-hour teacher training programs and yoga teacher mentorships, Christen's classes, workshops, and trainings are filled with laughter, song, intention, and healing. Christen is a true Coloradan and enjoys all things outdoors, is passionate about the environment, and is never too far from her two sweet dogs.
