Bio
Laura Przybysz
Christy joined the Youth Development Team at a time when the ASAP program she oversaw was in need of an increase in structure and direct management or mentorship of part time instructional staff. Christy is a person who can jump into a situation, quickly assess what needs to be done, and deliver high quality results in a very short period of time. In less than a year, the ASAP program saw huge leaps in overall program quality and through her guidance staff began to offer more innovative and engaging programming for youth. I would recommend Christy for any position where there is a need for thoughtful change management and quick results in challenging environments - especially if there is also a need for kindness and positivity!

When visiting Chicago for a race, a small group of runners wanted to find a yoga class that would fit our special running needs. Christy put together a fantastic session that included working the core, stretching and strengthening key muscles, and a special focus on the IT band stretches. It was perfect and I would highly recommend Christy for creating a personalized program for your needs!
