I specialize in Iyengar-based and Therapeutic Yoga for those living with arthritis and chronic pain, experiencing stress and anxiety, and recovering from injury or surgery. Due to the number of emails I receive regarding yoga, please no inquiries about prenatal, postnatal, children's, family, or hot yoga sessions. I'm flattered you contacted me but there are many more talented Calgary yoga instructors who specialize in those areas of instruction. I always appreciate hearing from you and will respond to your request within 48 hrs, Monday to Friday.

About Kim..

I'm a freckled, all-Canadian, Montreal-born gal who discovered yoga after her competitive swimming career came to an end. After retiring from the sport, I tried kickboxing, karate, and knitting but nothing filled the gap. As a last resort, I took my 1st yoga class in 1998. The rest as they say is history.

I began my yoga practice over 13 years ago and have been teaching Iyengar-based yoga for over 6 years. I have trained under Geeta Iyengar and several senior-level teachers from across the world. My current beloved teacher is Margot Kitchen without whom I would not be the teacher I am today.

Causes close to my heart are Power of Movement arthritis research fundraiser for which I am an Ambassador and Yoga Thrive therapeutic yoga for cancer survivors program. Most importantly, I love teaching.

See you in class!
