about kim’s classes

Kim models her classes after the voices, presence, and languages of her great teachers, and after her own daily practice of asana, pranayama, and meditation.  Both influences guide her toward a unique and energetically-charged combination of postures and breathing practices.  Kim grounds her alignment cues on a deep understanding of the musculoskeletal system so students will hold poses for more time.  She focuses on every student and often builds classes around the needs of the group for that particular day.

Kim’s all-levels classes typically progress along a linear path toward an “advanced” pose that combines the previous, individualized actions.  She builds the class on a progression of information around basic concepts of physical and energetic alignment.

Kim’s interest in energy flows and the vibrational essence of life, however, sometimes brings the esoteric into the concrete more creatively.  Her advanced classes could, for example, just as easily start with headstand as with a forward fold, while her all-levels yoga classes are structured.  Students should be prepared to work on every level of the body: physical, emotional, mental, and breath.

Students will find Kim’s yoga classes creative, specific, interactive, and physically and mentally challenging.  Lately she is interested in bringing her life-long love for all types of music into the classroom.

Kim also teaches specialty group yoga classes, and she speaks to corporate audiences about yoga, meditation, and the modern world.
