Krissa Ludvigsen
Krissa holds the vision and is the energetic pulse behind The Dharma Approach ecosystem. She is a Dharma Yoga Registered Teacher (DYRT), E-RYT 500, YACEP, Lead Trainer of our Dharma Shakti Yoga Teacher Training and Women´s Circle Facilitator.
Like the hummingbird — her spirit animal — Krissa has a big heart in a small body. Someone once told her, “You have a Warrior inside of you, and your weapon is Love.” She resonates strongly with this. Born in San Francisco and having lived in seven different countries — Manila, Singapore, Hong Kong, London, St Lucia (in the Caribbean), Vancouver and Norway — it´s become clear to her that building community, and helping people feel good in this life, is her gift.
She is an advocate for plant medicine and alternative methods of healing, and believes that the ultimate teacher we are looking for is the one we have within. Her mission is to help bring people back into a state of remembrance.
Founder & Lead Trainer
Kristina Mac Lennan
Kristina has always sensed there is something more — a deeper current running beneath the surface of everyday life. That curiosity has guided her across traditions, philosophies, and ways of being, in a lifelong search for understanding. When she found yoga, things began to fall into place.
She believes in energy — that at the most fundamental level, everything is nature and connected, and life itself is an exchange. She believes in movement as a force for change. When we allow ourselves to be moved, something in us shifts. She believes in beauty, the human spirit, and the power of gathering with intention. She has a holistic and spiritual approach to life, with love and empathy at the center.
Whether teaching vinyasa, yin, or Shake the Dust, the essence is always the same: breath, movement, and a non-dualistic philosophy that trusts the body's own wisdom, creating spaces where people can find their way home — to themselves.
Experience Facilitator
Resident Crystal ExpertKatrine Eltvik
Katrine has been hanging out with crystals since 2013, when she immediately felt a connection to their silent language. She has been intertwined with them ever since.
Passionate about normalizing energy sensitivity and curiosity — taking a closer look at what reality really is — she sees crystals as energetic tools for exploring life as a creative practice. By inviting in the individual vibration of a crystal, or through the creation of intentional spaces, she believes we are capable of opening new doors in life and within ourselves. She loves to observe life after connecting with a new crystal energy.
Katrine is currently completing her Crystal Healing certification through the School of Natural Health Sciences. She has also completed one year of Crystal Studies with Ikya and continues 1-1 energy studies with him. Other practices include, Yoga, Photography, Psycho-synthesis, Transcendental Meditation and Family Constellations.
