Kyle’s love for movement originated in the hot Arizona desert where she played soccer and swam competitively. As she grew out of playing organized sports, she began to explore different avenues of movement. Her first introduction to yoga was while living in San Francisco and she instantly felt a deep connection. She continued to pursue her new passion while living in New York City. The calming effects of yoga and meditation helped to alleviate some stress of living in a big city. In the last seven years she has trained with inspirational teachers in New York City, Costa Rica and all over California with over 400 registered hours.
​
Kyle has enthusiastically jumped down the rabbit hole of holistic living and is also a Certified Massage Therapist where she is constantly learning new modalities and techniques. As she has come to the realization that this world is full of opportunity to feel happy and healthy, she feels even more inspired to share her knowledge and open mindedness to help the Fresno community feel better in their bodies, mentally and physically.

Kyle’s many other passions include cooking, her twelve-year-old pitbull – Fanny, traveling and exploring new places with her lover and being in nature. Kyle believes life is all about being surrounded by good people and loving with no condition.

Hi! I’m Kathleen Spain. I have been practicing yoga at Blue Moon for over 7 years. Blue Moon is my home away from home. The studio provides a place of peace, community, and classes that push me to be stronger and more diligent in my yoga practice. I have been married for 24 years to my best friend, Matt. We have 3 children, Rachel – 20, Ryan – 18, and Dylan – 15.   Inferno Hot Pilates is a great addition to the class schedule. I am so excited for everyone to be inspired, to sweat, to work hard, and to feel great!!

Christine’s commitment to yoga began in 2010 during her days as a runner, and through the years her practice has been critical in helping her with stress relief and anxiety. It’s because of her journey with this practice and love for wanting to help others, she wanted to become an instructor.  Whether you’re taking one of her 26+2 or #infernohotpilates classes, you’ll be treated to fun music during your experience.
Christine is a Southern California native who is now proud to call Fresno ‘home’. After 12 years in television news, she has ‘retired’ to focus on her health and other things that make her happy.  When she isn’t at the studio, you can find her spending time with her (fellow Blue Moon yogi) husband, Marquese, and their 2 furbabies.  She’s also proud to be the Fresno Grizzlies’ first ever female game-day emcee. What she loves most about teaching at Blue Moon is being a part of a stellar teaching staff and among a group of dedicated and inspiring yogis.

She practiced at her first hot yoga studio in May of 2015 and soon after became a 200 RYT in August of 2015. She loves the physical challenge, mental clarity, and emotional balance that yoga offers. Beija is preparing to pursue a career as a physical therapist and she hopes to integrate traditional modalities with yoga to encourage holistic and long-lasting wellness. Her classes are creative and designed to allow students to feel empowered to connect within, be authentic, and feel full of vitality and bliss.

Aurandeep Singh Samra is a seeker of truth and extremely grateful to be connected to his culture and heritage of India and the practice of Yoga. Yoga & Meditation has benefited Aurandeep’s life physically, mentally, and energetically. He loves to share the Universal tools that have helped him evolve spiritually with anyone who is receptive and curious about the ancient practice of yoga and meditation. One of his favorite mottos to live by is, “Each One, Teach One.” He knows that every individual is an expression of the Divine and is blessed with unique gifts and talents waiting to be activated and shared. “We are all teachers of experience, and students of life”. Aurandeep also is very humbled to have been able to spend two months pilgrimaging throughout many ancient cities in India. There is where he deeply realized that there is only One Divine Truth and many paths back to the Eternal Truth. Love, Gratitude, and Compassion are the common denominators on every path back to the Divine and he is extremely inspired to share this message with mankind. Aurandeep also loves to spend his free time writing poetry, adventuring through nature, listening to conscious music, and co-creating with souls who share the same mission as him, which is to uplift consciousness!

Health and fitness have always been an important part of my life. My yoga journey began at Blue Moon Yoga Fresno in 2014. I was suffering from an old running injury and my sister Marlene suggested I try hot yoga. She had been practicing for nearly a decade and was a huge advocate. I took my first class and never looked back. When Inferno Hot Pilates came to the studio, I tried it and was instantly addicted. When the Clovis studio opened, I knew I wanted to dive deeper into this hot practice and I knew I wanted to share it with others. In March of 2019 I completed Inferno Hot Pilates teacher training with Gabriella Walters, the creator of IHP. The changes that happen as a result of time spent on the mat permeate my life. I am honored and grateful to be teaching at BMY. I look forward to the opportunity to share my love for this practice with you on and off the mat. Namaste.
