Work with Christy

Welcome to The Yoga Room, my private yoga and holistic wellness studio in Ann Arbor, Michigan, where I offer personalized in-person and online experiences for anyone who wants to feel better in their body, navigate life's transitions with greater ease, and cultivate lasting health and vitality.

Blending the wisdom of yoga with the science of lifestyle medicine and nervous system health, my approach goes beyond yoga poses. It's about learning to listen to what your body needs, restoring balance, building resilience, and developing sustainable practices that support you through every stage of life.

I offer a personalized, holistic approach to well-being, designed to help you:

  • * Navigate stress and burnout
  • * Move through menopause and aging
  • * Manage chronic illness
  • * Cultivate nervous system resilience

If you're looking for a more thoughtful, holistic approach to yoga and whole-person health in the Ann Arbor area, I'd love to work with you.

My Brush with a Bobcat–and Other Highlights from Our 2026 Fall Yoga Retreat

A peaceful walk in the woods took a wild turn at this year’s Fall Yoga Retreat outside of Big Rapids, MI. Yes, really, I saw a bobcat while taking a solo walk on the trails behind the Inn where I …

Your Yoga Practice Is About to Get Stronger: Yoga with Weights

If you had told me at any point during my nearly 30-year career as a yoga + wellness educator that I’d one day be adding weights to my yoga practice, I would have said, “Absolutely not.” Fast-forward to today…and, well, …

My Bumpy Ride with Chronic Illness: Central Sensitization, Nervous System Healing, and Finding Hope

I have been trying to write this blog post for several weeks now. In some ways, that isn’t surprising. As I write this, it’s been nearly two years since my journey with chronic illness began after an unexpected bacterial infection. …

IN THEIR OWN WORDS

I have been practicing yoga with Christy for over 13 years and I can say that I have learned more about yoga and grown more as a human in that time period than I ever would have imagined.

Jessie C.

Christy's attention to mindfulness is something I particularly appreciate...The best yoga classes I've taken, and I've taken many!

Kellie M. R.

I love the personal attention and Christy's teaching style. Oh, and the studio is GORGEOUS.

Sadie W.


Your clear instructions, gentle reminders and most of all your calming voice are what put your yoga classes above all others.

Amy J.

I wanted to thank you for supporting my re-entry into yoga. These 30-minute Zoom yoga sessions are just right.

Stephen N.

The energy of having so many HSPs together in a gathering was amazing!  It was so calming to me and that is something I didn’t expect. I haven’t felt energy like that at a gathering….ever.

Jen W.

Christy’s studio is incredibly warm, inviting, intimate and personalized. I couldn’t recommend this studio more!

Tim W.

All of the “pearls” in the Self-Care online course continue resonating with me every single day. Thanks for all your wisdom and direction, Christy!

Lori B.

Christy’s “Yoga Room” is unique and genuine. It is indeed a quiet refuge.

Dave R.

[Christy] is simply a lovely person, a qualified instructor and a centering influence on the mat. This is a special place. And I feel special when I am there.

Andrea B.

Your audio files have just been so centering and strengthening, just like I remember your in person classes. Thank you so much for offering them virtually!

Megan A.

Christy is a skilled instructor...She makes you feel comfortable no matter your ability or level. The hour I am doing yoga, I feel like I am far away from everything. I leave in a better state of mind.

Elaine N.

I just finished going through your Perimenopause e-guide and I absolutely loved it. It is wonderful how you combined science and personal experience to make it feel like a self-guided journey with a knowledgeable friend.

Megan A.

I so love your audio classes and doing the zoom recording. I'm really enjoying being able to take your classes again! I have taken classes at a lot of studios in a lot of cities (San Diego, Boston, Baltimore, to name a few) and yours are the best I've ever found!

Anna V.

I was very hesitant to do yoga, and the second I walked into your studio everything about it was welcoming and healing - for the body, mind and spirit.
