Kristal found herself drawn to the mystical ever since she can remember, always sensing that there was more to life than meets the eye. Raised in an agnostic household, she found that art, beauty and creativity were instruments to tune into intuition & devotional expression. And so, for over 20 years she followed that spark with a career in fashion all while committing to deep self cultivation through many forms of sacred practices. After dropping into a Yoga class in her early 20’s that left her awestruck, she developed a deep reverence for the depths of Yoga. She spent years as a dedicated Ashtanga Yogi, years as a devoted Kundalini Yogi, as well as exploring other styles throughout her journey with many wonderful teachers who left their marks in her heart. During a life altering illness, Kristal realized she deeply wanted to help guide others to experience a little bit more joy, ease, and connection to their true self through Yoga. She also experienced the profound physical healing that Yoga can have, even in the most gentle forms. And so, Kristal was honored to graduate from the Yoga Secrets 200hr YTT in May 2024. She additionally has certifications in Buddhist Meditation, Kriya Yoga, and is a Reiki Master. She loves teaching the physical as well as the deeper aspects of Yoga, and will often include some chanting, meditation or pranayama in class. She is grateful to be a forever student on the path, and bows humbly to all her teachers who have lit the way.
