Finding the Strong by Nature Community has improved my daily life through guided meditations, journal prompts, yoga classes, and community. The community of Impact Makers all striving for self-care and love has been a blessing. We are all learning from one another. We are not alone. There is a sense of togetherness, in that each and every individual is rooting for one another. We are here to grow and learn to better love and accept ourselves. It is a beautiful gift. Everytime I open the Facebook group and/or join a Zoom program, I am greeted with the knowledge that we’re all on a path of growth and support.
That day I felt like I was coming apart much like a thread hanging from a piece of cloth. I reached out and asked for help. Larissa was the first to answer my call. She set up a time with her for the NEXT morning. She was heaven sent. Her work with me that day was clarifying and empowering. I immediately felt calmer and more centered. It is no exaggeration that Larisa saved my heart that day.
I didn't realize how much a coaching session could help me gain clarity until it happened. Larisa provided a supportive and trusting environment so that even through a virtual appointment, she helped me break through what I needed to charter through a new chapter in my life. We turned it from a foggy unknown to a hopeful and positive journey. Thank you Strong By Nature!

I recently had the pleasure of working with Larisa to plan a fundraiser for our charity, Burgers and Bands for Suicide Prevention. We did a virtual gentle yoga class and I loved it. Being virtual was great because even my 14 year old son as able to participate and afterwards when we were nice and relaxed we didn't have to worry about driving home. Larisa is one of the best yogis I have met. She has such a kind and giving heart and it shines through in her entire class.
Larisa has been a fabulous coach, accountability buddy, meditation mentor, and overall kind person! She frequently checks in on me individually to make sure I'm ok and progressing. At every session, she ALWAYS asks for any client needs so she can tailor her sessions to meet those specific needs! I love the way she provides beautiful daily intentions, and even has her daughter help with readings sometimes! If you are looking for a person who can bring calm, encouragement, and love into your heart and home, you MUST reach out to Larisa!
I just moved to Frederick and was looking for a way to start exercising more. I found Larisa’s site and, participated in one of her free Facebook classes and decided to dive in. I’m so glad I did. I spend every weekday morning in Larisa’s class. Larisa is motivating, centering, and challenging. I’m getting stronger and more mindful and I’ve never been happier!

As a veteran who suffers from a back disability and chronic migraines I found Larisa's gentle flow meditation class to help start my day with the stretches needed ease pain and keep the migraines at bay. I've also attended her stretch and meditation combo class, I must say I left refreshed, pain free and mentally strong for the day. What I enjoy most about her way of reaching is how personable she is. She guides you through many alternative positions to match any experience level. She also takes the time after class to message you to see how you're doing. For me that meant a lot coming from an instructor who honestly cared for my well-being.
My daughter and I just completed a gentle yoga/meditation class; Larissa's gentle, affirming, supportive and meaningful class provided us exactly what we needed to find some peaceful calm in the midst of all the COVID chaos. Our bodies and our minds are refreshed, reset and restful. Can't wait until our next class. Larissa is soulfully genuine, a phenomenal coach and teacher.

She has a special gift and loves what she does.

I've had the pleasure of working with Larissa over the last couple years and it's truly been a blessing. I've received counseling and coaching from Larissa through some of my most trying emotional times.
Additionally, I've had nothing but great experiences through multiple retreats with Larissa. Her experience as a yoga instructor really shows and working with her has helped my body feel and perform better.
Every time I have a session with Larissa I feel better physically and spiritually and I recommend her to just about anyone I know who I think would benefit.
I highly recommend you reach out to her and see how she can help bring more light into your day and life.

Larisa is as knowledgeable as she is helpful. Having first known her as strictly a yoga instructor, she has branched out even further into total body wellness. She recently did a total body evaluation on me, in particular focusing on recurring soreness in my right knee. She examined my posture, inquired about my workouts, worked on my stretching, and then added in some yoga. We then moved on to Trigger Point (which is a challenge!) and then finished with a massage. I felt much better that day and have remained feeling better days after (and avoided the anti-inflammatory meds recommended by my Dr). If you are looking for someone to take your whole life and goals into consideration, get over and see Larisa!

I've taken many different classes with Larissa and have enjoyed every single one of them. Larissa makes sure that everyone in her class is comfortable with the poses/movements and offers alternative poses/movements to anyone who may need to modify a little. She ensures that all of her students are getting the correct form and hitting the poses correctly. She's a wonderful teacher, and is caring and supportive. She does a wonderful job facilitating and puts a lot of work into each class she teaches. 10/10 would recommend taking any one of her classes!
