Calisthenic Strength & Mobility
Develop strength, control, and mobility through a blend of calisthenic and ground-based movement. This class combines crawling patterns, bodyweight drills, and flowing transitions to improve coordination, core stability, and full-body awareness.

Animal Flow
Animal Flow is a ground-based movement practice that builds strength, mobility, coordination, and body awareness through crawling patterns, loaded transitions, and dynamic movement sequences. Some describe it as climbing across the floor.

Anna Mitra

Anna Mitra is an Oregon-native yoga instructor, a dedicated student, and a great lover and believer in movement as a form of medicine. Her yoga journey began in 2010, in a time when she struggled daily to manage her mental health. Slowly the mindful practices of yoga began to replace her unhealthy coping mechanisms and through these practices, she has developed a stronger relationship with her own healing process. It is through this lens that she has come to terms with the many aspects of her own inner darkness, and the light she has discovered within it.

Anna believes in the wholeness, the deep intuitive wisdom that we all have, and strives to help students remember this within themselves. She empowers her students to be curious, to move in embodied ways that they might not otherwise, to remain present with all that arises, and supports them in discovering their own unique way of being.

Christina Provencio

Christina’s practice began in college when a dorm mate invited her to yoga at the rec center on campus. She fell in love immediately and surrendered to an eternal life of conscious practice and learning. Never before had she been asked to breathe this way, to listen this way, to move and stretch this way, to be this way. Yoga quickly became more than the balance she needed to get herself through the stressful times; yoga became Christina’s spiritual fire and connection to an evolution of movement.

During her time in Southeast Asia, the asanas were brought to life for her in a traditional experience. Traveling from village to village, Christina sought out guidance and training under Buddhist monks. She learned to quiet the mind and surrender to the power of meditation.

Today, yoga continues to challenge her as she strengthens her relationship with herself. As this connection deepens, she is able to share her heart and passion for this life to the people around her through practicing yoga side by side. This ever growing love has presented Christina with the opportunity to teach and share her spiritual journey with our yoga community.

Gianna Clark

I found yoga after my college softball career ended in 2019. It started as just a workout, and then changed my Life as I began to challenge my mental limits & explore new ranges of movement in my body. I teach yoga as a practice we can continuously explore, not a performance to get perfect. My classes prioritize mind-body presence over appearance and sensation over shape, with breath-led, thoughtful movement that encourages strength and awareness. I offer clear cues, variations to explore your edges, and space to listen inward, supporting a mindful practice.


Outside the studio, I study herbal medicine and live in closer relationship with seasonal and cyclical rhythms, which shape how I teach and move through life. You can find more of my daily practices and offerings on Instagram at @gi.grownwild, I look forward to practicing with you soon!

Lizzie Fischer

What style(s) of classes do you teach?

Creative flow classes rooted in functional movement, thoughtful sequencing, with a playful energy. I love helping students build strength, explore new ways of moving, and find a deeper connection to themselves through movement.

What brought you to teaching movement?

I grew up as a gymnast and volleyball player, so movement has always been a big part of my life. But yoga found me later, at a time when I was recovering from an eating disorder and learning how to reconnect with my body. What started as YouTube yoga by the river during COVID became one of the most important tools in my healing. I became a teacher because I wanted to create that same space for others—a place where curiosity matters more than perfection and where people can feel at home in their bodies.

What is one small, reliable joy that lights you up?

My morning routine: reading a good book, latte in hand, with my miniature weenie dog Jilly curled up next to me.
