Cleo Post, Owner & Director, E-RYT 500, B.A. Yoga

​Cleo has been teaching yoga for 11 years and practicing yoga for 13 years, starting at an instructors house in the magical woods near Canaan, NY. The connection with the birds, the stream running outside, the breath, and the yoga poses expanded her awareness and consciousness. Her love for yoga blossomed and brought her to complete her 200hr yoga teacher training from Kripalu in 2011 and later to Naropa University (Boulder, CO) where she received her 1000hr yoga teacher training and B.A. in Yoga in December 2013. The yoga program at Naropa enabled her to dive deeply into the ancient yogic texts, the practice of asana, the study of Sanskrit, and yoga nidra. Cleo has studied under many amazing teachers, and has gained insight through experimenting with different yoga styles, which ultimately enabled her to find her own distinct teaching method and flow. Cleo opened Rainbow Body Yoga in 2014 and is thrilled to offer and share the joy, peace, happiness, love, calmness, and serenity that yoga brings to all that come to practice.

​Chloe Higgins, RYT 200

Chloe has been practicing yoga since she was 15 years old. Her passion for & experience with the limitless healing powers of yoga led her to pursue her RYT-200 hr certification from Rainbow Body Yoga in Red Hook, NY. She believes yoga is the stilling of the changing tides of the mind, allowing us to come home to ourselves and feel true peace. Her goal as a teacher is to share the magic healing & connectedness of yoga with others. She believes if we all take the time to care for ourselves & raise our own vibration, we can collectively make the world a better place.

Mela Stevens, RYT 500

​Mela owned and operated a public relations and production business in Manhattan for 13 years before she found her way to upstate New York in 2001. This change allowed her to focus her career on holistic wellness and health and teaching yoga, too. Her classes focus on Svadhyaya (yoga’s Niyama of self-reflection) through a combination of movement, stillness, fun and the ability to allow/receive as primary intentions.

She is a member of the Yoga Alliance and a National Board Certified Health & Wellness Coach specializing in nutrition, self-care and stress management practices. Mela is also a small business coach, Human Resources practitioner and writer. She earned a BA from Long Island University with a specialization in Journalism, and is a Certified Coach and teaching facilitator for the Quantum Coaching Method. Mela lives in Rhinebeck, is Reiki first-degree certified and CPR certified.

Kristina Jamo, RYT 200, DP, PT

​Kristina has a deep love for anatomy, kinesiology (the science of movement), and witnessing others take control of their healing journeys and her classes reflect just that. Kristina is a Doctor of Physical Therapy with a bachelors degree in Kinesiology & Exercise. Kristina discovered yoga while in graduate school and was enchanted by the practice and many benefits yoga has to offer. Since her practice as a physical therapist and a yoga instructor began at the same time, the two fields naturally began to merge. She prides herself in introducing yoga to her patients healing from musculoskeletal conditions and utilizing her knowledge of the body and movement to craft her yoga classes. Her goal is to empower others in discovering their self-healing abilities while spreading awareness of the roles both physical and energetic anatomies have in overall wellness.

Jacob Friedman, RYT 200

​For Jacob, unconditional love is the goal, and yoga is the path. His classes provide a non-judgmental environment that is supportive and welcoming to all. He guides you safely through practices designed to cultivate introspection and physical development, to challenge and heal, and to inspire observation of and connection with every part of your self. By mindfully turning inward and working to uncover your own inner light, you will leave class feeling empowered and open to a deeper love and compassion everywhere in your life.

Jacob's classes are based in the Kripalu tradition: student-focused, accessible to every body, a balance of effort and ease, with bits of yogic philosophy and playfulness thrown in for good measure. Jacob is deeply inspired by his teachers at Kripalu, where he trained under Kari Harendorf and Yoganand Michael Carroll. He feels immense gratitude for the all teachers in his life: yoga teachers; school teachers; friends; perhaps wisest of all, his dog Maya; but most especially he is grateful for his parents, for their endless love and support. He remains an eternal student.


When not practicing yoga, Jacob may be found wandering in music, playing philosophy, stir-frying a forest or reading vegetables.

Testimonials
​

“Yoga Teacher Training at Rainbow Body Yoga was a life changing experience. I learned how to heal through Yoga & various energy healing modalities, how to put together a class, and how to effectively cue poses. This training fused together Yoga and all kinds of magic that allowed me to see the world from a different perspective. I made amazing friends and truly enjoyed spending every weekend spent in the teacher training. Additionally, Cleo helped me to figure out my "why" behind teaching, identifying my goals and seeing how they changed as training progressed. I graduated YTT feeling very certain on my path AND already had classes lined up to start teaching upon graduation! I will always be grateful for the magical way I was able to find & complete this yoga teacher training at Rainbow Body Yoga and the way it has impacted my life." - Chloe 

​
"Cleo Post & Rainbow Body 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training Intensive far exceeded any expectations I might have had or hoped for. It was one of the single best decisions I've made as she was the most wonderful teacher and perfect example of a Yogi." - Loretta

"I have been wanting to complete yoga teacher training for a few years. I'm so happy that I found Cleo at Rainbow Body Yoga! She provided a transformational journey during our yoga teacher training that was packed full of learning and teaching opportunities. If you're looking for the complete package when it comes to your yoga teacher training - Rainbow Body Yoga is a must!" - Jenna

​"My 200 hr YTT with Cleo was the best decision I've made in my 11+ year history as a fitness instructor and lover of yoga. The immersive training prepared me to teach yoga that is true to form and tradition, but also taught me how to embrace my own unique style of teaching. Since my training, I've led so many successful yoga classes, yoga combo classes, special workshops, and guided meditations. Cleo's training gave me the confidence to not only teach yoga, but also to confidently get out into the world and share my gifts. Her whole self approach really cracked me wide open and allowed me to discover interests in so many healing modalities in addition to yoga, and I am so grateful to have had such a thorough training that went so far beyond the asana practice of yoga and deep into the philosophy as well. In all honesty, she enlightened me." - Allison S

"Since the yoga retreat my life has changed so much for the better. I feel so empowered and inspired to spread knowledge and wisdom to others. Getting certified in yoga has improved my life and helped me to lead a happy, healthy life, loving what I do and guiding others on their own path to self love and healing." - Carmela 

"YTT with Rainbow Body Yoga was truly a life transforming experience. I cannot recommend this program enough. I learned all that I sought after and I discovered things about myself I didn't even know I needed to find." - Kristina 

“My gut told me to participate in Cleo’s immersive YTT retreat and I am so very glad I listened. I felt supported and safe to be my self from the moment I arrived. I also enjoyed the lessons on other healing modalities (e.g., tarot, herbalism, and ayurveda) that Cleo included in our syllabus. This illustrated the idea that while yoga is a powerful practice, it is even more beneficial when a part of a multifaceted holisitic healing routine. Cleo’s training empowered me to embrace my gifts, find/use my voice, and honor the calling I feel to help others heal and I am forever grateful for that. But most of all, I am grateful for the connections I made as I keep in touch with many of the beautiful beings I met and they continue to inspire me well beyond the training!” - Laura

"Loved the class so much! Great teachers and curriculum." - Allison R


"The Rainbow Body Yoga teacher training program was an immersive and enlightening experience. The program focused on the balance of body, mind, and spirit. Cleo is an experienced, knowledgeable, and exemplary teacher. Her calm energy and patient approach allow the student to feel comfortable with the learning process. I was able to gain the skills I wanted to acquire and apply them effectively in my life and my work." - Conny
