Our Story
Tide & Pine Wellness grew from a long-held vision to create a safe, healing space for yoga, wellness, and community connection. When the Cape Elizabeth location was discovered, it felt like the perfect place to bring that vision to life.
We offer regular weekly yoga and meditation classes, curated wellness events (workshops, sound baths, and guest teacher series), community donation classes, and a flexible event rental space suited for intimate gatherings, private classes, and creative workshops. Our offerings also include a monthly book club, covering a range of genres and topics to foster conversation and connection beyond the studio.
Our purpose is to provide a welcoming, secure environment where you can move your body, find peace in stillness, and build meaningful relationships.

Heather Maloney (she/her)
Yoga Instructor
Heather's practice of yoga found her at a pivotal moment in her life, offering the clarity and balance she needed to heal and move forward. Her intention is to hold space for others to feel supported to begin their own journey of self-discovery. She seeks to create an environment where students can awaken their energy, challenge their bodies, and reconnect with the present moment. Her teaching style emphasizes the importance of fluidity in both mind and body, encouraging students to find strength and flexibility. She has historically taught Hot Power Vinyasa Flow, encouraging students to cultivate inner fire through ujjayi pranayama, resilience, mindfulness, and a deep sense of empowerment. She now also leans into teaching slower paced classes that allow for stillness and rest. She leads all of her classes with a take-what-you-need approach. All bodies and experience levels are welcome.
Kay Kerina (she/they)
Yoga Instructor
Kay Kerina was born in Bath, and left Maine after high school for college. She returned to Maine in the spring of 2016, and has been working since then in Human Services and Social Work with the youth of Portland. She is involved with many organizations in the community and did her a 200 YTT training at Arcana in downtown Portland. Kay has always loved what yoga was able to do to help restore her body when she was a young dancer, and she loves diving into yoga in a more meditative and healthy way as an adult. Kay has found that within her studies in social work and her current work, she is ready to expand her knowledge of yoga and practice into social work endeavors to help the "cura personalis", or the care of the whole person. Kay's goal for her yoga spaces she holds is to make safe, adaptive, and inclusive classes that welcomes those that would not usually have the opportunity or feel safe enough to join a yoga class.
Jessica Foley (she/her)
Therapeutic Musician/Harpist
Jessica Foley is a therapeutic musician, and founder of Intuitive Harp Healing based in Tucson, Arizona. Her signature harp sound baths held seasonally at Tide and Pine, are designed to promote relaxation, peace, and well-being.
These special events are an invitation to experience the cascading waterfall like sounds and warm tones of the harp, with crystal singing bowls, and chimes. Jessica has professional training in harp therapy, and holds certifications in sound healing, and Reiki.
She completed 200-hr Kundalini yoga teacher training in Spain through Ra Ma Institute in 2017, and at Kashi Ashram in Florida in 2019. Jessica also earned a standard 200-hr yoga teacher training certification in 2021 from Well Heart Yoga in Maine.
Julia Galbraith (she/her)
Yoga Instructor
Julia’s yoga journey began in 2011, when she traveled to Maui, Hawaii, to complete her first yoga teacher training. What began as an immersive experience grew into a lasting curiosity about movement, mindfulness, anatomy, and holistic well-being. More than 14 years later, that curiosity continues to shape her teaching and inspire her ongoing learning.
Julia’s approach is rooted in the LYT Yoga Method, developed by physical therapist Lara Heimann. Blending yoga with principles of biomechanics and functional movement, LYT offers an evidence-informed approach to building strength, improving mobility, optimizing posture, and supporting longevity. Through this practice, Julia helps students cultivate body awareness, deep core stability, and more efficient movement patterns. Her goal is to support people in better understanding their bodies and learn the tools to experience greater physical and energetic alignment, both on and off the mat.
