Class Pass Review
Christopher is always a calm, reassuring, compassionate presence. I am in my third year of practice with him and the evening classes are central to my exercise regimen. I love the long holds, which are very good at loosening up difficult joints and restoring range of motion to old injuries. I highly recommend Christopher’s Yin Yoga.
Melinda
The classes have been just what I need. And the Gong Meditation was phenomenal! Like a sound bath…very enlightening and trance-like. I was able to truly relax but felt energized and connected at the same time. Always love the opportunity for a “righteous stretch” with Christopher! Please, keep that going!
Cindy
Through years and years of exploring the universe of mindfulness classes I’ve come to recognize those rare, genuine, and authentic teachers. Christopher is one.
Tara
Prior to Christopher’s class I was in a great degree of pain in my hip area. I didn’t think I would be able to do any poses. I was amazed that at the end of class I was pain free! Thank you Christopher for your guidance and attention to your students. It was a class that seemed designed just for my needs.

Progress! I stood and walked unassisted for a meeting today. Given I wasn’t able to stand longer than five minutes four months ago [due to back issues], I welcome these rather intense postures.

Yin Yoga
Yin yoga is a long-hold, deep-stretch practice that effectively rejuvenates the joints and surrounding tissues of (mainly) the hips and low back.
An ideal complement to more active, rhythmic, and repetitive endeavors — flow yoga, dance, martial arts, swimming, cycling, running, weight-lifting, and such — Yin yoga is the real yoga for athletes.
Along with its respect for each student’s skeletal realities, Yin yoga’s magic resides in selectively stimulating fascia, ligaments, and the joints themselves through relaxation and postural stillness.
You won’t sweat, but Yin yoga isn’t easy.

Christopher Drozd
My students include: competitive athletes, novice to elite; general exercisers from nine to ninety; and, Yin yogis from a much broader population than solely the yoga community. And for good reason.
You see, any 20 year-old trainer will kick your ass in the gym, but only a seasoned fitness advisor knows when to and when not to do that.
As a dedicated fitness professional since the mid-1980s, and as a Yin yogi since 2006, I bring to the training table the insight and experience of maturity.
And, even after these four decades, I’m as enthusiastic as ever about sharing my expertise with those committed to improving their health, fitness, and sporting performance.
