Private Yoga · Maitland, Florida

Your yoga practice should begin with your body, your breath, and where you are today.

Private yoga gives you uninterrupted time to learn, ask questions, and build a practice around your body, experience, breath, goals, and life. Begin from the ground up, deepen an established Ashtanga practice, or return to yoga with thoughtful individual support.

In person or virtual Beginners + experienced students 60- or 90-minute sessions

Yoga becomes clearer when there is time to understand it.
You learn the practice rather than simply follow along.

Why choose private yoga?

Different stages of practice need different kinds of attention.

Every session is adapted to what you need that day. The work may be foundational, technical, restorative, contemplative—or a thoughtful combination of all four.

01

Begin yoga with confidence

Learn foundational postures, breathing, transitions, and practice principles at a pace that allows questions and clear understanding.

03

Deepen an established practice

Refine breath, transitions, postures, sequencing, or advanced Ashtanga work with time to investigate the details.

04

Build a personal or home practice

Create a practical sequence you can continue at home, while traveling, or alongside Mysore and group classes.

What private yoga can include

Your yoga practice can be taught from more than one doorway.

You do not need to know exactly what style, sequence, or technique you need. Tell Krista what you want to understand or change, and the practice will be organized around the most useful starting point.

FoundationsPostures, breathing, transitions, and practice principles taught clearly from the beginning.

02

04

05

Breath + AttentionPranayama, meditation, and the inner skills that allow yoga to become more than physical exercise.

The goal is a practice you understand. What you learn privately should help you practice with greater clarity inside the studio and on your own.
