Crystal believes living an active lifestyle and practicing yoga helps maintain overall mental, emotional and physical health. A burnt out child welfare social worker struggling with compas-sion fatigue and poor mental/emotional health from personal trials, she found that yoga helped her gain confidence, clarity and a new community of love and support. Crystal has a Bachelor of Criminology degree and received her 200 hour RYT certificate after immersing herself into the jungle of Costa Rica. She enjoys helping others to step out of their comfort zone, making yoga and fitness accessible to every body, and sharing the empowering benefits of creating a mind-body connection. Her classes incorporate movement that allows students to leave feeling stronger and more flexible on and off the mat.
