Facilitator for 200 HR Yoga Teacher Trainings with Awakened spirit yoga

Following two significant foot surgeries, the practice of yoga played a vital role in my recovery, facilitating both my mental and physical rehabilitation and guiding me back to myself. This transformative journey led me to rediscover the love within, allowing me to reconnect and heal…and also lead me to India to study the teachings of Yoga.

With over 18 years of personal yoga practice, my journey took a turn when I spent six months studying in India. As an assistant to an esteemed teacher of the 'Iyengar method' during a 200-hour yoga training in Rishikesh, India, I gained invaluable insights. One particular quote that stuck with me was: "Teach yoga as an offering." This experience highlighted the significance of giving back through teaching yoga and sharing the profound gifts I have acquired along my path.

During my light-hearted yet invigorating vinyasa classes, I motivate students to step outside their comfort zones while maintaining a playful mindset. Flexibility, core stability, and strength development are emphasized, accompanied by a focus on proper alignment using props and offering appropriate hands-on adjustments and assists inspired by Thai massage.

Thank you for joining me on this journey.

P.S. All of my classes end with songs in Savasana. I love singing along with my ukulele, harmonium and/or guitar. Sharing the music I’ve learned from my travels is a deep passion of mine. Check out the Boulder Kirtan & Medicine Music Band I’m involved with here!

“You hold space like a master. Your presence is very grounding and safe. Your are succinct and clear in everything you say. You have a radiant smile and a very warm heart. And choose music like no one I've ever known! Each time you adjusted me, I felt shifted -not just physically - I felt shifted deep inside on an energetic and emotional level. This is rare. Your adjustments are wise and intuitive and your touch is very powerful. Your authority is also warm and kind. You're also skilled at balancing encouragement with constructive feedback and you make corrections in a  clear but warm way. Thank you Kylie. " - Practitioner of Yin & Restorative YTT Sedona 2018

Honestly, at least 3 of these practices are among the best yoga classes (yang) that I've ever had. Thank you Kylie! I was able to have deep releases and emotional experiences that shifted me. internally. It's rare to get that from a yang practice.
