Esther S. says, "Working with Krista has truly been a transformative experience. From the moment I started training with her, I could sense her unwavering passion and dedication. Her commitment to her craft is not just evident but palpable in every session. What sets Krista apart is her remarkable ability to attune to her clients' energy, creating a personalized and deeply enriching experience every single time. Over the past year, my sessions with Krista have become a highlight of my week, blending physical training with soul-nourishing conversations that uplift and inspire. Her genuine care and insight have made each session not just about fitness but about personal growth and well-being. Beyond the physical workouts, I also had the privilege of participating in private meditation sessions with Krista. These moments were invaluable during a challenging period in my life. Through her guidance, I discovered a profound sense of peace and serenity, and a renewed feeling of hope that carried me through difficult times." Read more

Reviews for Boston meditation classes

Recent success stories from people in the Boston area.
Ramya V.
Krista is a very compassionate teacher, as well as being highly skilled. I feel really comfortable and at peace in her class, and I love that her classes are judgement free and not at all competitive. I came to Krista with minimal experience in yoga and a lot of limitations. Since practicing with her consistently, I have grown to be more flexible, and strong. The simple techniques she teaches such as joint mobility exercises have helped with knee pain while doing strenuous activities like hiking. My Yoga practice has deepened thanks to her and I feel inspired to continue to push myself further!
