Erika Burkhalter began practicing yoga at an age when most of us were watching cartoons on Sunday mornings. Intrigued by a PBS yoga series at the age of nine, Erika knew from an early age that she had found something she loved. Years later, she went on to complete her teacher training programs and began teaching yoga in 1999. Over the next few years, she sought out advanced training with well-known yogis from all over the globe, evening practicing in India.
Today, Erika shares her gift and love of yoga at Yogaworks Costa Mesa, where she is an instructor. If you have ever taken her class, you know that’s a total mind and body experience. She will challenge you and help you take your practice to the next level. Erika’s passion for yoga is inspiring to all of her students.

Something you may not know about Erika is that not only is she an amazing yoga teacher, she also holds a Master’s of Science in Neuropsychology. While she no longer works in this field, she continues to be amazed and intrigued by the links between ancient wisdom and modern science.
