Private Yoga Classes & Instructors in Mott Haven, NY

I earned my Hatha 200 hr. and Children’s 95 hr. Yoga Teacher Training certificates in 2020. Since then I have taught babies, families, children, teens and adults.

I’m an ISSA-certified personal trainer and group fitness instructor with a 200-hour yoga certification and five years of teaching experience. My style is supportive, clear, and adaptable, with a focus on strength, mobility, confidence, and sustainable progress. I work with beginners, returning exercisers, and clients who want personalized guidance without intimidation. Sessions are inclusive, practical, and tailored to your body, goals, and experience level.

"Beba, 4 classes, Chris made me feel so comfortable as a beginner at yoga. His energy is so amazing and infectious, it kept me coming back week after week! He made classes accessible to all fitness levels and so much fun. The only reason I stopped attending was because I moved, otherwise I would continue going to class with him!!

Ryan Walters is a yoga instructor, performing artist and curator from Miami, Florida with a specialized focus in audio/visual arts and movement practices. For 10 years spent living in New York City, dedication as a student of variegated disciplines came to materialize as he began instructing and performing at institutions and events such as Dubspot, Ridgewood Yoga Studio and Ultra Music Festival. Shifting focus between performing arts and healing modalities, employing skills as an instructor of yoga styles including pre-natal and postpartum, endeavoring to curate an international label as well as record, produce, ghost-write and engineer for a myriad of artists, Ryan has advanced with a well-rounded perspective and teaching ability.

"Since taking classes with Ryan, I have gone from being completely unable to lift my arm without having severe debilitating pain, to entirely regaining my mobility and no longer needing to go to physical therapy. I highly recommend Ryan as an instructor and guide for various healing modalities.

As someone who had a major accident resulting in multiple surgeries at age 19, I have learned how to heal and transform my body, and share this work with others. I am certified in and teach bodymind practices such as yoga, pilates, Moving for Life, The Nia Technique and meditation. I am also a Reiki practitioner. In the twenty years that I have been doing this work I have come to believe that, given the right tools, we all have the power to heal and transform our bodies and minds.
