Aura Haus is a pop-up wellness collective rooted in Chicago and powered by connection. We blend mindful movement with modern culture — rooftop yoga flows, post-class lattes, and soulful hangs with electric energy.

Meet Kristine Palka, your resident Instructor

Detroit-born, Chicago-based, and movement-obsessed. With a background in dance and a passion for connection, she became a certified instructor in 2019 and turned it into her full-time groove by 2020.

Kristine’s classes are where flow meets fun, and community comes first. After years of building friendships through fitness, she dreamed up Aura Haus as a space for like-minded, feel-good humans to sweat, stretch, and vibe together.

Whether you're new to group classes or a seasoned ClassPass pro, Kristine’s here to make you feel at home — and hype you up along the way.

We’re a haus — a vibrant space for movement, meaning, and a little mischief. Whether you're here to sweat, stretch, or just sip and vibe, you’ll find:

✅ Real people

✅ Good music

✅ High vibes

✅ Zero judgment

And yes —

*you’re grounded*…

just not the way your mom meant it. :)

🌿 We’re not your average wellness brand.
