Want to work with Crysta?
One-hour video call lessons with Crysta Brown, available via Pivo, FaceTime, or WhatsApp, . Lessons may be conducted using Pivo’s tracking technology when available, or via live video call, allowing you to receive real-time coaching and feedback from anywhere in the world.
Lesson quality is dependent on the strength and stability of the internet connection in your arena, as live video and audio are required for real-time instruction. Wireless headphones are required so you can clearly hear Crysta’s coaching while riding.
Perfect for beginners and seasoned competitors alike, these lessons allow you to get immediate, actionable feedback without ever loading the trailer. Crysta is well known for her ability to break down complex concepts into plain English, helping you fast-track progress and ride with more confidence and clarity. Let’s get you winning.
How it works:
After purchase, you’ll receive an email with scheduling options. At your scheduled time, you’ll connect with Crysta via Pivo, FaceTime, or WhatsApp, depending on what works best for you, and your lesson begins.
