Elke Johnson

Hi. I'm Elke.

Yoga nourishes my soul.


 I found the beautiful and transformational practice of Yoga when I was newly divorced and was seeking connection after moving to a new city in 2002. 


At first, it was only stretching, but then it became something more. Yoga and its philosophies formed new perspectives and physical and emotional changes. 


Through Yoga, I found stability, focus, and balance. Not just through the asanas themselves, but in how I moved through all of life.

Teaching Grief Yoga

Kripalu's first Canadian Certified Grief Yoga Teacher.


I've struggled with depression since my early 20s and even considered suicide as my only option a few times, but my hardest and darkest times in grief actually provided me with deeper insight on how I want to live my life. 


A powerful message from the gifted Maya Angelou flowed through me as my feet padded the floors at Kripalu, "I come as one, I stand as ten thousand." I use this as a mantra to lead me through darkest times as a reminder of the guardians and angels of the world and their gentle guidance of love and patience. 

Teaching From a Trauma Sensitive Perspective

I was in an abusive relationship for nearly a decade. I didn't see, or even feel, the full effects of the trauma until I started to unfold the layers through a daily sadhana practice and how I share the teachings of Yoga with my students. Creating a safe place and a somatic experience with effective therapeutic language to ensure that you receive the full effects of your Yoga practice.
