My name is Kristel Elling. I’m a classically trained actress from Estonia.
I studied acting at the Estonian Academy of Music and Theatre and earned my master’s degree at the Royal Central School of Speech and Drama in London. Since then, I’ve worked across film, television, and theatre in Estonia, Europe, and the U.S.

Along the way, I’ve discovered practices and disciplines that have helped me grow as a performer and human being. I’m a certified vinyasa yoga teacher and a dedicated martial artist, holding a black belt in Taekwondo.

I also sing, tap dance, ice skate, and play the piano.

When I’m not acting or training, I’m traveling the world or connecting with nature.

My mantra is simple: be kind. I want my work to turn a key in someone’s heart—hopefully filling that heart with kindness.

I look forward to collaborating with you or having you in the audience—whether it’s live theatre or through the screen.
