Christa Avampato
More $10 yoga! More great teachers!
Christa Avampato, who has blogged here on Yogoer, has launched an awesome new initiative called Compass Yoga. She not only offers affordable yoga, she donates 20% of the proceeds to the charity of your choice. (She also writes an inspiring blog on entrepreneurship, Christa in New York.)
I attended the very first class last night, and was really impressed. Christa managed 26 students, of all ages and experiences, with ease and charm. She offered variations for the injured folks, and lots of helpful focal points throughout class. I came away relaxed, restored, and ready to face my week.
Classes are held from 6–7pm every Sunday at Pearl Studios, near Penn Station. Christa did her teacher training at Sonic Yoga; classes are slow flow Shiva Rea style.
