Have you ever read your favourite yoga teacher’s biography?

It usually starts with them talking about their journey to yoga and how they immediately fell in love. It’s a common and beautiful story. They humbly step onto their brand new mat and a full millisecond after their first vinyasa - they’re hooked. In that moment, their life has been changed permanently and for the better - thanks to yoga. I have always wondered how many of these stories are actually true. Continue reading…

I hope we can spend some time together. On our mats, off our mats.In workshops or trainings or even on YouTube. I hope my guidance in this practice can aid you, even if it’s a single step on the journey towards who you really are. Trust me, you’re going to want to meet them.

What People Are Saying

 

“As a yoga teacher myself, I have high standards for who I trust in my professional development. Crystal May is spot on with her anatomic knowledge and you are in safe hands. What you won’t expect from Crystal is that she is also the most down to earth instructor who will make it all accessible to you, like you were talking with an old friend. I am so lucky to have had the opportunity to train with someone so competent and fun.”

“I would recommend Crystal’s classes to anyone. They are fun, low key, no stress, and I always learn something new, and love the background info she provides. I so appreciate her willingness to help improve my practice, following an injury too - when no other instructors would help with modifications, She took the time to teach me how and why to change my positioning.  Highly recommend!”

~ Liz

“I had the opportunity to take a Yin training with Crystal. She is genuine, funny, open minded and an all around fantastic human. She is a very knowledgeable teacher and will open your mind and your heart with her unique style and take on teaching. Her classes are strong, well sequenced and good for everyone. If you have a chance to practice or train with her do so, you won't be disappointed!”

“I have had the pleasure of having Crystal guide my practice for the last five years at various studios.  She has a unique ability to balance challenging western techniques with traditional eastern practices.  She makes everyone feel at ease with her sense of humor and teaching to various levels. She is encouraging and always makes you feel good about the level you are practicing at.  When we are done with class I feel better about myself both physically and mentally.  Plus she has a beautiful voice that is so soothing at the end of the class.”

~ Jenn B

“Crystal has an incredible presence that you can sense the first time you take one of her classes.  She possesses such a positive energy, that it envelops you and makes you want to practice yoga, even on days that you’d rather go home and put your PJ’s on.  She has an infectious, playful presence and she truly believes that yoga is for everyone and every body. She has a passion for learning and sharing knowledge about anatomy and how yoga is so beneficial, not only for the physical aspect but that leaving the world outside when you arrive on your mat, is so great for our “selves”.  She leads some yoga practices that can be very challenging but this is where Crystal truly shines as a yogi.  Even when we get caught up in our egos and start to get way too serious about how our practice is going, Crystal has a way of injecting some fun … to lighten the mood but at the same time share some deeper profound message which makes everything ok and provides a sense of community within the space itself. I am so grateful that I have had the opportunity over the last 5 years to practice under the guidance of this beautiful soul and looking forward to many more.”
