I’m Kerstin Brown, founder of AURA Wellness. My work lives at the intersection of strength, mindfulness, and energetic care. My mission is to help others radiate confidence, align their energy, and thrive in body, mind, and spirit.

Originally from Austin, Texas, I spent my youth moving across Georgia, South Carolina, and California, rarely in one place for long. Sports were my anchor - from gymnastics and competitive swimming to cheerleading - teaching me resilience, discipline, and how to find connection wherever I landed.

After studying at the Fashion Institute in San Francisco and Los Angeles, I discovered my first love for helping people feel good in their own skin through beauty, style, and airbrush tanning. That work taught me about confidence, presence, and the deep connection between our internal and external worlds.

From confidence to connection

After studying at the Fashion Institute in San Francisco and Los Angeles, I discovered my first love for helping people feel good in their own skin through beauty, style, and airbrush tanning. That work taught me about confidence, presence, and the deep connection between our internal and external worlds.

When I stepped into my first hot yoga class, everything changed. The heat, the breath, the presence - it all brought me back home to myself. From that moment, my healing and teaching journey began.

I became a certified yoga instructor (RYT-200) and continued expanding my education across power, sculpt, yin, restorative, and sound healing. Over time, my work naturally evolved to include Pilates, TRX, cycling, barre, and NASM personal training.

I’ve taught for brands and organisations including Nike, Lululemon, the San Francisco Giants, the 49ers, Diplo Run Club, the Ritz-Carlton, and Delta Airlines. I’ve led large-scale community events, corporate wellness experiences, and deeply personal private sessions.

After years of managing fitness studios and building wellness brands for others, I realised it was time to create a space of my own - one that reflected everything I had learned about healing, growth, and empowerment.
