Antoinette Kruse

Antoinette Kruse is a highly-credentialed Certified Yoga Teacher (RYT 200) with 2 years of experience specializing in using movement and breathwork to build mental and physical strength.

This practice is the cornerstone of The Mind Body Movement Living Laboratory (MBMLL), where she is the Founder. MBMLL is a pioneering platform dedicated to advancing the future of systemic trauma recovery through integrated, evidence-based solutions.

 The Power of an Integrated Approach

Beyond the mat, Antoinette is a University of Michigan-trained Clinical Social Work Educator & Trauma Professional. Her methodology is unique, expertly blending her trauma-informed yoga instruction—which includes mindful breathing and meditation—with:

• Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

• Applied Neuroscience

• Nutritional Awareness

This powerful combination creates classes that are not only physically enriching but also deeply restorative for the nervous system, helping participants foster genuine resilience that lasts long after class.

 Academic & Clinical Leadership

 Her commitment to high-quality care is grounded in extensive academic leadership, including teaching roles at institutions like Columbia University and Walden University. She translates this clinical and academic expertise into innovative, community-based solutions, including founding and leading a 501(c)(3) since 2008 to support individuals with mental illness and co-occurring disorders.
