"I'm deeply honored to consider you alongside Ram Dass as one of my teachers. For you would certainly make him proud as a living example on and off the mat. You are a clear shining light in a sea of confusion, you are the horizon as I bob on the sea, you are drishti, Christy."

"Christy is truly an amazing [private] instructor who mixes in all types of yoga-related techniques to suit one's individual needs."

"Christy creates a consistent yoga experience with her calm, abiding presence, a voice that opens one's heart space, and a precise way of communicating the various asanas. She allows students to move deeply inward while helping them to build core strength and explore their edge. She's the real deal--caring and compassionate, magical and wise. She will often share teachings through quotes and poems, setting the mood of the room with candlelight and her gentle healing adjustments."

"I first met Christy through a YogaWorks 200-Hour Teacher Training that I attended and she led. She's been an incredible gift to my yoga practice and learning. Practicing with Christy is truly transformative. Her classes and teaching stand out in what seems an ever growing sea of yoga instructors and studios. She possess profound knowledge of the principals of yoga, relationship of the body to the asanas and yogic philosophy. What really inspires me is her warm kindness and keen observance to sense where each student is at and what is needed to bring out the best in you as a practitioner and teacher. During the pandemic, practicing online with Christy was especially therapeutic and valuable and while I thoroughly missed being in person, the livestream experience was still profound. I look forward to her livestream classes every week and feel truly blessed to have her by my side as I continue my own yogic journey. No matter the asanas, a class with Christy will leave you filled with strength, inner peace, stillness and new found awareness."
