Patti is an avid traveler, adventure seeker, soul searcher and student. She began her yoga journey while teaching 4th grade, integrating breathing techniques with her students. Her introduction to mindfulness soon became a school wide initiative. She resigned from teaching to start her company, Academic Adventures in Yoga, targeting the many layers of the school district: after school enrichment, professional development workshops for teachers, and the at-risk and neglected populations (i.e. foster care, homeless, incarceration). Patti has completed over 500 hours of Yoga Teacher Training (YTT), is a Registered Children’s Yoga Teacher (RCYT), and a graduate of the Yoga Education Program: Pre K-12th grade. She holds a master’s degree in Management and a Yoga Gangster’s Certificate – teaching yoga to at-risk populations. She teaches at various locations in Tampa, offering Yin, Life Power Flow, Hatha Flow, Bikram and Ashtanga (short form). Her authenticity shines on the mat, and she believes that growth and transformation begin once you step out of your comfort zone.
Kristina has been working in the health and wellness field for over six years as a massage therapist and yoga teacher. Her specialties include training in Prenatal, Thai and Sports Massage, Vacuum Cupping, Reflexology and KT Tape. Kristina is a mom to 9 year old twins, and has been married to her best friend for 10 years. She brings the skills and knowledge gained from each of these roles to her passion, working with women going through the exciting, but sometimes not so easy transition into motherhood and beyond. Kristina is currently pursuing certification as a postpartum doula. When she’s not working or busy being a mom, you can find her snuggling her cats, practicing yoga, or reading a book in nature.
Thanecha is a song-writing, guitar-playing, yoga-teaching Tampa Bay resident, and when it comes to yoga and fitness, Thanecha has a deep passion for both teaching over 20 yoga and group fitness classes per week and working with a handful of personal clients. She has had the honor of teaching more than one thousand students throughout Tampa Bay, and strives to use her gifts and talents to positively impact the lives of as many people as she possibly can.
Thanecha believes that yoga connects the mind, body, and spirit, and that what you learn on the mat can be taken into every area of your life, and into every experience. In her classes, she creates a space of non-judgement, where you have the freedom to go at your own pace, challenging yourself in every pose, while simultaneously being able to listen to what your body and spirit need in that moment. In each yoga class, she incorporates guided meditation, breathing techniques, Tibetan Bells and a Singing Bowl, and ends the class with live music that is sure to leave you feeling refreshed and more at peace.
Playing a role in the happiness and wellness of our community is immensely important to her, and you can find her teaching yoga and group fitness classes at LifeTime Athletic, Palma Ceia Golf and Country Club, and at Crunch locations all over Tampa Bay. She is excited to join our team at Baby Scene, and can’t wait to lead you in your practice. Namaste!
