Wow, great reviews and all of them true. I have been going to Chrystal over 3 years and personally know most of the people that have written reviews. I have seen many people come in with various problems and it has been a joy to see them improve with yoga. Aside from the yoga practice our group has a wonderful sense of community. You may come feeling like a stranger but you will leave as a friend. Chrystal likes to have fun in her classes and you will feel relaxed and comfortable but make no mistake, Chrystal will make sure you know your stuff and know it well. She is like a mother over her children. She wants you to grow but she wants you to be safe and learn well. Namaste'

I started with Crystal less than a year ago. I weighed 240 pounds and I couldn't find my "muse". I had such a hard time sticking to a fitness routine. I never would have believed YOGA could help me find both focus and solutions to my weight. At this time I've lost 45 pounds, which I credit to Crystal and her caring concern to teach YOGA to all folks. Even the ones like me, whose obesity made it hard to do some stretches. Never once did I feel overly conscious of being "too fat" for yoga with Crystal. I love her classes (I attend Franklin Fitness Center) and I haven't felt his well in YEARS. Not just because of my weight issues, but because I've learned I can be strong again. I've decided that being obese can be conquered with YOGA and the right mental attitude and that I CAN do these poses and stretches and come away feeling stronger and more confident in my body and mind. For those of you who feel that you're too old, too fat, too any other reason you feed yourself for not giving YOGA and Crystal an HONEST try and workout, your missing out on feeling like you've actually made a bad day WONDERFUL by relaxing and stretching your mind and body with YOGA.

I've been taking yoga with Crystal for close to two years now. The benefits I've seen from yoga have been amazing! I began initially hoping to get some relief from back and hip pain that I'd experienced from giving birth. I had been in physical therapy from here to Nashville over a period of two years. What a difference yoga made! After *literally* my first class I could tell a difference, and within a matter of months, I began to see a major change. Now, the pain is all but gone! I am plus sized woman. When I first began, I didn't know if yoga would be for me, but honestly, yoga is for EVERYONE! Crystal is very supportive and guides everyone through. The one thing that's always stuck with me, she said "It's about the journey." It truly is. If there is something you have a hard time with, there are modified poses. Every person, every body can do yoga. It's relaxing, and truly has improved my mental and physical well-being. I'm so thankful that I've found yoga!

Crystal's yoga class provides relaxation in a quiet atmosphere which allows me to 'unwind'. As I complete the first set of seated movements which involve inhaling and exhaling to Crystal's directions, I find myself relaxed, calmed and ready for a gift of refreshment for my body, mind and soul. Yoga is not a competition. Crystal meets each person where they are and gently moves them along their spectrum of possibilities. I appreciate that she modifies as necessary to allow everyone to participate to their fullest ability. Yoga is encouraging. This begins with the attitude that Crystal offers and fosters in her classses. I have made new friends and feel completely comfortable in all the class settings. I really miss the benefits of the class and friendship exchanges when something interrupts my ability to attend. Yoga benefits the whole body. With Crystal's diversity of topics, you will experience 13 sessions before repeating a session. This variety reinforces a total body experience. I am always challenged and attentive to the diverse sequences. An added bonus is that Crystal clearly articulates the specific reasons and benefits throughout her spoken guidance in class. She is open to questions and is always available before and after class for individualized assistance.

From Mary B. Hi Crystal, Some thoughts on practicing Yoga at Samadhi: The Samadhi Healing Arts Center provides a welcoming atmosphere dedicated to promoting a sense of inner peace and harmony. For me the atmosphere enhances my Yoga practice and the exploration of a path to spiritual fulfillment. The subtle lighting, dÃÂ©cor, quiet music, and living things add to and encourage this process. Some thoughts on practicing Yoga with Crystal: My Yoga teacher is Crystal Gray. I enjoy practicing with Crystal because of her clear and guided instructions for every pose. These poses are taught for the students to increase strength, balance, and flexibility. We are taught how to improve and take our practice to the next level. Crystal offers several classes a week for all levels. I enjoy the evening "Glow" classes as well as the more intense Saturday morning classes. Leaving Crystal's classes, I feel relaxed and energized. My personal experience has led to better health and well being
