I was drawn to the yoga mat for the physical challenge, and quickly discovered and fell in love with the many, ever changing rigors of the practice. The work I have done on my mat has since transformed my relationship with myself in such a way that I feel compelled to share that magic with others through teaching. I have completed two 200hr Baptiste Yoga teacher trainings, and over 200hrs of yoga trainings with the Baptiste Institute. My classes are both nurturing and rigorous – a combination that I believe encourages possibility and openness in our bodies and minds.

Peter Michaelsen

Peter began teaching yoga in Portland, Maine around 2014. That year he moved to Boulder, Colorado to complete a bachelor’s degree in yoga studies and teaching at Naropa University. In Boulder, Peter taught yoga part-time at Radiance Power Yoga. At Naropa, he studied yoga history, philosophy, Sanskrit, and Eastern music. Over the years Peter has also completed approximately 400 hours of training through the Baptiste Institute. Peter has completed levels 1, 2, and 3, as well as a few weekend-long programs.

Carrie Stone

Carrie has been practicing yoga regularly since she landed in Boulder in 2009. She received her 200-Hour Baptiste Power Yoga certification at Radiance in 2015 and has been regularly teaching since. She has completed her 85 hour Prenatal YTT at Radiance in March of 2024. As a teacher, Carrie encourages her students to make space and create power in their own bodies. You are likely to be challenged in Carrie’s classes and, by the end, be smiling (and sweating). Off the mat, you can find Carrie running on the Boulder trails, drinking a bubbly water, and obsessing over her fluffy cats, Oliver and Earl.

Mimi Tzadok

Mimi is a 200-hour certified instructor trained in power, hatha, vinyasa and hot, styles of yoga. She has studied throughout Colorado, as well as in Rishikesh, India and works to tie booth eastern and western philosophies in her classes. Mimi is also in pursuit of a nursing degree; therefore, her classes are structured with safety in mind from an anatomical point of view. She provides a hands-on method and strives to cultivate community within the classroom.

Alisa Van Kleef

I found Baptiste yoga on a fluke. In 2014 I stumbled into a Baptiste affiliate studio and started practicing yoga as a healing tool to recover from running and cycling injuries and as a counterbalance to the great many hours of triathlon training. I instantly feel in love with the physical practice of Baptiste yoga – and it kept me returning to my mat day after day. I felt awake and connected to my body and a sense of belonging to the community. The practices of Baptiste yoga – the strong physical practice (asana), meditation and self-inquiry – has brought me strength and flexibility in body and mind and has inspired me to create a life on purpose and in service to others.

I am a Tier 1: Certified Baptiste Power Yoga Leader – teaching Baptiste Yoga since 2016 – and currently in the year long FIT to Lead program lead by Baron Baptiste. When I am not at the studio, you can find me out on adventures, reading in coffee shops, cycling or playing with my two orange cats.
