Wow. Where do I begin? I cannot say enough about this woman and her studio. First of all, it is not just a pilates studio. It's more like a dojo where you get to train under a master teacher. In Krystallo's classes you get to confront yourself and meet your points of weakness and OVERCOME them. This is due to a mixture of Krystallo's unrivaled expertise and incredible focus on her students' every strategic move, but also in borrowing her energy and strength until you can get there yourself. Krystallo is so inspiring that every wish you ever had for yourself becomes more of a reality as you stretch and push yourself in her classes to get closer and closer to the best version of yourself. You don't just become stronger. You become the woman you were meant to be in order to live your dreams.There is a reason Krystallo is so beautiful - she works for it. And she can show you how to too. Krystallo also has a gift for challenging her students with great dignity and respect so that while you may be working harder than you ever have before, you are doing so with an ever present sense of joy and expectation for greater things to come. And boy do they come. I now stand up straight and tall when I enter a room. I am able to walk down stairs properly for the first time in 3 years after breaking my knee cap in half and several PT places that did very little for me. And I am hopeful. I am finally truly hopeful. Hope used to come and go with me depending on if my spiritual fitness was up to par. But now, my higher aspirations have a home - a strong, fit, lean body that means business and carries me where I need to go with the kind of athority you can only get from working it out - properly and thoroughly. And that's what you get with Kyrstallo. If you know you are meant to be a race horse, and you're tired of being a school pony - this is the teacher for you. And you will love her and laugh with her every step of the way. Welcome to the best chapter of your life. The first page starts with Krystallo!

I have been working with Krystallo for over 20+ years, which has helped me to maintain fit now into my late 70's. She is the ultimate professional in understanding any issue I have, creating a workout to deal with any aches and pains and being sure to include proprioception (balance and stability). Knowing she has taken many certifications throughout the years, it is no surprise she has the ability of an outstanding physical therapist. I am committed to our time together because I know when I leave, I will feel healthy not only physically, but mentally. I hate exercise but enjoy whatever program Krystallo has planned for my session. Her studio is cheerful, filled with every possible piece of equipment, including Gyrotonics, which is kept impeccably clean. If you are lucky enough to workout with Krystallo, grab that opportunity to take greater control of your body. She is a beautiful, caring, smart woman who is never anything but supportive and encouraging. She was recommended to me by a trainer in another Pilates studio years ago who realized my issues were too serious, and I needed someone who was the best in the field. How lucky I am to have her as my trainer and someone who has also become a trusted friend.

I started classes with Krystallo 6 years ago to do "pre-hab" before knee replacement surgery, and it aided and prepared me for the subsequent recovery process. I have continued with her and attribute my strength and flexibility to her excellent classes. Krystallo has the uncanny ability to conduct a class while tuning in to each person's physical being in order to modify the exercise for that person, i.e. an issue with their back, neck, shoulder, hip, etc., so as to both protect and strengthen that part of the body. And without skipping a beat or holding up the class! Also, her extensive knowledge of anatomy is apparent and comes into play in her classes, educating her students towards a stronger and healthier body.

A hidden boutique Pilates studio, with a powerhouse of an owner, meant only for the clientele who want and appreciate a brilliant and effective workout tailored to their needs. The epitome of “if you know, you know”, Krystallo combines years of experience and her multiple degrees to deliver the gold standard of pilates every time. If you get a spot, don’t walk but RUN!

I’ve been training with Krystallo for 7 years. I initially began pilates to help with a severe ankle/heel injury because I needed something that was gentle on the body and not weight bearing. But I VERY quickly fell in love with how pilates made my body (and mind) feel and I continued training well beyond healing my injury and to present day. Krystallo is the real deal. She is certified, educated, and highly experienced in Pilates. She is professional, friendly, welcoming, patient, and passionate about helping people. She has taught me the value of strengthening the body the safe and healthy way. Her pilates studio truly feels like a second home to me. I wholeheartedly recommend Krystallogy to everyone of all ages and all levels of fitness. You will walk out of the studio feeling stronger and standing taller. Your joints and muscles will say “THANK YOU, THAT FELT SO GOOD.” Krystallo is the absolute best. I will write a review in another 7 years to let everyone know that it is still and always will be the best pilates studio on long island. THE BEST.

Krystallo is the best! When I came in I was strong, but I needed a lot of help with my balance and posture. After just a few classes I was feeling much more centered and flexible. Love her!

Krystallo is highly qualified with years of experience and truly understands how to effectively work the body to see results. I’ve been training 2x a week for the past 8 months and I’ve noticed increased strength, but also such a shift in the way my body feels. I love that no workout is the same, and each session specifically catered to your needs. I love her personality and truly look forward to going each week!

Krystallo is the absolute best! I have done Pilates for 10 years at various places but trained with Krystallo religiously 2x/week for the past 3.5 years. I have trained with her pregnant and postpartum and she is amazing and knows the body inside and out! She is highly certified and has a deep understanding of the body which is essential. She can make adjustments at any time depending on what is going on with your body at that time. Each time I am there, the class is different, which I love! I love her personality and working out there and couldn't recommend her more!

Krystallo is a true expert in her field. She is extremely knowledgeable about the body and the mechanics that go into the full body workout she provides. She keeps each client accountable for their own personalized workout goals, and has a genuinely upbeat and positive demeanor as she coaches you through various exercises and stretches. She provides an ever-changing workout using a wide array of different machines, tools and equipment. I have been seeing Krystallo on a weekly basis for a year, and she has been crucial in my postpartum routine. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a fun, dynamic, and challenging workout. She is extremely easy and fun to talk to, and I genuinely look forward to working out with her every week!

I have been going to Krystallo for almost 2 years. I was 3 months postpartum when I started training with her and she was extremely knowledgable about postpartum works outs. Last year I also struggled with a herniated disc which she was also able to help rehab. I highly recommend! Her works out are always different and fun. She’s also high energy and super fun to be around!
