“My friend and I go here 2-3 times a week. Great classes for beginners and intermediate learners. Yoga instructors and reiki practitioners go out of their way to make sure you are comfortable – with suggested variations of poses for every single body, no matter what stage of practice. The vibe is very calming and cleansing. Classes are affordable! Please check out this GEM of Hamilton, Ohio.“

Kim
500 Hour RYT Yoga Teacher
Kim discovered the transformative power of yoga shortly after her husband died in early 2008. Kim believes that the beauty of yoga lies in its invitation for us to tune into our bodies, minds and emotions. And that the true power of the practice is exemplified in our daily lives, not on our mats. Kim’s passion for the practice led her to complete a 200-hour teaching training course at It’s Yoga in Cincinnati, OH and acquire the RYT 200 certification through the Yoga Alliance in 2017. Kim successfully completed her 500-hour RYT certification in 2021 through Indigo Yoga’s Teacher Training program. On the mat, she found that if nothing else landed, her default intention was always “playful focus” – a reminder to practice with purpose, to be intentional in though and movement, and to have fun. Kim believes that functional and fun movement, filled with attention and intention, is the key to a healthy body and mind. Off the mat, Kim is a recently retired Chief Operations Officer for a local financial planning practice. She is perpetually learning and enjoys spending time with friends and family, hiking, gardening, cooking, and participating in triathlon.
