Meet Christy Studant

Christy’s journey began in the world of healthcare, where she served as a Physical Therapist Assistant, blending over 25 years of experience in Pilates and fitness into her healing work. Her passion for the body’s innate intelligence and the sacred art of movement inspired her to become a 500-hour Certified Yoga Teacher (CYT) and to open Mindful Movements Yoga and Pilates, a sanctuary devoted to mindful living, embodied healing, and conscious connection.

Guided by her deep reverence for nature and the wisdom of the soul, Christy’s path expanded into the ancient science of Ayurveda—a journey that birthed Live Powerfully, LLC, a holistic platform for healing, transformation, and soul alignment. Through this work, Christy empowers others to live in harmony with their true essence, integrating the mind, body, and spirit through conscious practices that restore vitality and inner peace.

Her teachings invite individuals to move beyond fear, anxiety, and self-doubt into a place of authentic freedom, emotional balance, and embodied wholeness. Certified in Inner Alignment Soul Retrieval, Christy offers sacred spaces of remembrance, helping clients heal childhood trauma, regulate the nervous system, and awaken the light within.

Today, through Live Powerfully, Christy offers a variety of soul-nourishing experiences, from Ayurvedic nervous system healing, somatic and breathwork sessions, and seasonal yoga immersions, to community memberships, retreats, and transformational group programs. Each offering is an invitation to come home to oneself - to live powerfully, purposefully, and in devotion to the divine flow of life.

For Christy, connection is the heart of transformation. Through every breath, movement, and moment of stillness, she guides others to rediscover their own sacred truth - their radiant, powerful Self.
