Carrie Treister

Carrie began studying yoga when she discovered that it was the only exercise that didn't leave her with discomfort. She has two titanium rods in her back and a fused spine. Yoga was the one thing that worked to add strength without pain afterward. Carrie then looked to become a yoga teacher because she wanted to be able to share her passion for yoga and help others to discover the inner strength and beauty they may have had trouble finding.

In April of 2008, Carrie completed her yoga teacher training with Cleveland Yoga. As soon as she finished her yoga teacher training, not only did she become present in local studios, Carrie also started kids’ yoga programs in Beachwood, Orange and Solon, Ohio. Currently, Carrie is the Yoga Coordinator for Lifetime Fitness & teaches vinyasa flow for Lifetime Fitness, Rezults Downtown Fitness, CSU Recreation along with her local children's yoga programs.

As of March 2011, Carrie has also become a Certified Group Exercise Instructor through AFAA. She encourages everyone to learn the benefits of multiple types of fitness training.  A variety of exercise is good for the body, especially for the devoted Yogi's whose practice will grow even more with bits of strength and cardiovascular training.

Carrie looks forward to sharing this passion with you, and hopes you'll join her on the mat!
