Testimonials

"Krista is the best yoga teacher I've ever met. Fortunately enough, she was my Master Teacher and certified me to teach. Her teaching style is rythmic, dynamic, and challenging. Krista has a unique ability to tune into her students' needs. As a teacher, she enables them witht he means of becoming more aware of thier own bodies. Krista has taught me that being a Yoga teacher is much more than instructing proper asana practice. She has shown me what it means to be a healer."

"Krista, as a teacher of yoga practice, is knowledgeable, spirited and caring. As a beginner, I have been guided through the nuances of the various positions in a way that in each class I can feel my progress. Most meaningful to me, however, is Krista’s emphasis on the practice of yoga being part of a larger spiritual journey. Each class is laced with time for reflection on our practice and on our journey on this earth. Krista provides beautiful queries for us to think about and tells meaningful stories. I will never forget the story about the froggies and I tell it to my elementary school age students! Each class with Krista is a jewel that can completely transform my outlook."

"Krista has been a guest speaker to a women's group to which I belong. Our focus is on health: heathy eating, healthy lifestyle, and emotional health. Krista has helped us on a number of levels. She has shown us how to do self massage, how to meditate and took us through a 10 day elimitation diet that was difficult and stimulating at the same time. She offers advice and insight in a non-judgmental way. Krista listens!! 

I have also taken a few yoga classes with Krista and after each one I feel that I have really worked my body, gotten my breathing under control and tried many new positions to help my body become more flexible. I leave there feelng totally relaxed."

"I recently suffered a back injury, and no amount of ice, medication or chiropractic treatment seemed to be really effective. Krista performed therapeutic MAGIC, easing me through the awful disk pain I'd endured for over two months, reawakening my spine and energizing my spirit. Her massage skills are sensitive, knowledgeable AND intuitive - what a great combination."

Here is my quick story: "I only visited Shakti Yoga once or twice before I was diagnosed with kidney cancer a few years back. It was the scariest experience of my life. Fortunately, I had a relatively minor case of the ailment...as minor as that sort of thing can be. I contacted Krista at Shakti Yoga for some guidance and advice. My objective, as one would imagine, was healing. I was searching for the best combination of traditional western medicine and alternative healing strategies. I also am Jewish and knew that my faith was going to be an imperative portion of my healing. Talking to Krista at that intense time in my life was imperative. She recommended a number of different ideas and was completely supportive of any decision I made. After talking to Krista that day, I knew that she was sharing all peace and blessings she had received over the years. I just knew I would be fine. Between my faith, a relatively easy surgical experience, and affiliations with phenomenal people like Krista and phenomenal places like Shakti, I was healed. I am now in perfect health. I don't spend as much time practicing Yoga as I would like, but, I will say that I see Shakti as a space that helps me locate a center and find calm. I will often drop in and take a beginners class when I am out of sorts, confused, etc. Krista and her team are skilled, talented and most important kind and concerned. They really want you to experience your Yoga practice, and they are really interested in your overall good will. Even if you don't go all time...do yourself a great service...drop in a take a class whenever you're not quite yourself. "

"In a frustrated last-resort attempt to ease my years of digestive troubles, I scheduled a massage appointment with Krista. I was confused and hoping for a small relief from my physical pains and ended up leaving the session with more knowledge and tools and freedom than i could've hoped for. Her hands and heart and skills were fundamental in healing both my physical tension and layers of accumulated anxiety. She was compassionate and willing to dig deeper with me. She was wholly involved in helping me regain the courage and knowledge to find my own balance. I have much gratitude."

"After seeing a specialist for months and taking 3 prescription medications to treat continuing stomach problems I finally decided to try something new. I had my first consultation with Krista in August at which time she provided nutritional counseling and recommended a list of supplements.. I followed Krista's advice and am happy to say that I feel 100% better.. Just by changing my diet and adding herbs and minerals to my daily routine I no longer have to take any prescription or over the counter medications. Not only have my stomach problem gone away, but I have more energy, my complextion has improved and I just feel so much better all around!"
