"Thanks so much for introducing me to a Yoga that is geared to my needs. I am not just talking about the actual yoga poses, but the atmosphere, patience and easy going vibe that your classes have. You understand how yoga benefits runners and that is what you do. Your class is like a greatest hits album that has only the greatest hits. Your understanding of yoga as a supplement to our running is the key to making the classes so beneficial and special to me. You are a great teacher that really understands her students." ~ Phil Block-Verk ~
"I've been running since the 1980s, getting more stiff and inflexible with each passing year. But I've never been able to get into a routine of stretching. Something clicked with CHristine's Yoga for Runners series. She has developed a yoga practice that builds flexibility in the hips and hamstrings while also reaching the often-forgotten upper body. I actually feel lighter with regular yoga practice. I won't be joining the Cirque du Soleil anytime soon, but I no longer feel like a cardboard box when I get up each morning." ~ Kate Bell ~
