Christine Zeien
Yoga awakens the spirit, offers a peaceful
contentment, quiets the mind and grounds the
soul. Practicing yoga is life changing, and it is
my passion to enlighten this journey in others. I
completed my 230-hour yoga study/teacher
training certification with the Yoga Center of
Minneapolis. I am certified in Restorative Yoga,
and I have a RYT 200 designation with the
Yoga Alliance Registry. I also work in the
healthcare field and understand the importance
of the mind-body connection as well as
integrating health and wellness with a fitness
lifestyle. I am blessed to be part of the Platinum
Yoga team!

physical benefits, and quickly discovered the
mental and emotional benefits as well. After 5

teacher training. She completed her 200 hour
Vinyasa training and 50 hour Extension
program. Diane also completed her Yoga Sculpt
training; making her certified to teach 2 different
forms of yoga (Vinyasa and Sculpt Yoga). She

moment has allowed her to create balance and
find peace in every aspect of her life. With her
focus on proper alignment and form, Diane

honor their body while building length and
strength. Diane enjoys seeing the change in
people when they enter a yoga class, and when
