YOGA TEACHERS
Kristina Shultsayte
I am a certified yoga instructor with 500hrs of training from New York City. I received my 200hrs from Exhale NY and 300hrs from Jared McCann at Lighthouse Yoga School. I began my yoga journey more than 10 years ago and fell in love with the physical aspect of it. While practicing, I was challenged both physically and mentally. With time and consistency, my body developed strength and surprising to my stiff body flexibility.
Sarah Gluschke
I am a holistic health & wellness coach for women, yoga teacher and meditation instructor.
My journey into the health and wellness began early, sparked by an adventure to India as an 18-years-old for my very first yoga teacher training. From there, my path unfolded, marked by constant learning, re-direction and finding more and more to myself.
Lee Davies-Head
I am a fully registered 200 hour RYT in Hatha Yoga and a 100 hour RYT in Yin Yoga. I have been practicing yoga for 26 years and I teach from an organic flow state.
I feel energy moving through my body via the meridians and I move with intuition and intention, following the bodies natural energetic pathways. Mudras and breathwork along with meditation often present themselves as we follow the flow and these are incorporated into the class to help bring balance and homeostasis to the body.
These classes are energetic healing classes giving students time to connect in with their bodies helping them to realign and get back to center.
Alex Dufour
Born in a small village in the north eastern part of France with Scandinavian roots, I arrived in Cayman at a tender age of 5 years old.
Drawn to martial arts and physical education from a very early age, along with spending most of my free time in nature, I have built a very strong connection to my inner self and the world around me. I discovered yoga at 20 years old and have maintained a daily consistent practice ever since.
My yoga journey lead me to backpack around India and Asia, living in yoga ashrams, spiritual communities and seeking out yoga masters around the world. This has allowed me to fully commit to the path of yoga, while maintaining a strong love and connection with the spiritual art.
I look forward to sharing my experience and love for the practice with you all at One Heart.
Claire Kathleen
Hello, my name is Claire, I’m a certified E-RYT500 yoga instructor. I found yoga 26 years ago, here in the Cayman Islands. My practice developed as I fell more and more in love with the different facets of yoga and all its’ teachings.
In 2007 I did my first yoga teacher training and was certified at an interdisciplinary school allowing me to learn about the foundations in many different styles of yoga. I began specializing in an alignment and heart opening based yoga practice. I am drawn to the slow and restorative pace of Yin while also being energized by hot and vinyasa based yoga practices. I’m really looking forward to seeing you again or welcoming you to class.
Nicole Badessee
I was born into a family rooted in yoga and meditation. My grandfather built a beautiful temple dedicated to community practice and spiritual growth. These traditions have always been a part of my life, and in adulthood I felt called on to deepen my practice further, leading me to Costa Rica, where I became certified in Hatha, Vinyasa, Yin and Restorative Yoga.
For me yoga is an ever-unfolding journey in both student and teacher. In every class, I value the exchange of learning and connecting which happens together on the mat. My teaching style blends mindful flow and grounding holds, helping students reset the nervous system, find inner peace, and connect deeply with the body and breath.
I love creating a full sensory experience by weaving in guided meditation, breathwork, Reiki, energy attunement and aromatherapy - offering a practice that nourishes both individually and collectively.
Leanne Golding

Leanne has also completed a 30 hour Sober Curious Yoga Teacher Training and is happy to explore this with students and our One Heart Community.
Janine Martins
Purpose = power. That pretty much sums up the journey of self-discovery for Janine and the focus of her offering today. Through personal trials and tribulations she recognized the purpose of her own life and refined that understanding through spiritual texts like the Vedas, The Baghavad Gita and Tao the Ching.
