Kristi Sell

Certified Yoga Instructor
Kristi Sell, yoga instructor at Golden Root Yoga

Kristi Sell first came to yoga as a graduate student in music performance. As an oboist, she was aware of the high rate of overuse injuries in her profession and began experiencing aches and pains herself. Yoga became both a way to build physical strength and a practice of calm meditation that continues to support her musical career.

The foundation of Kristi’s training is Baptiste Power Yoga. She earned her 200-hour certification in the Dominican Republic with Dancing Dogs Yoga, studied Yin Yoga with Carol Morissey, and completed her 500-hour certification with Caroline Wybar. In addition to yoga, Kristi is also a Les Mills–certified Body Pump instructor.

Kristi has taught at the Ford Field and River Club, Great Oak Yoga, and the Ramsey Student Center at the University of Georgia. Across these diverse teaching environments, she has shared her passion for yoga as a holistic practice that strengthens both body and mind.

Through her own journey, Kristi has developed a deep appreciation for what is possible when caring for the body and mind with intention. She inspires her students to cultivate strength, mindfulness, and resilience both on and off the mat.
