Kelly King

Seeking relief of neck/ back pain, as well as spiritual guidance, Kelly was intuitively drawn to yoga during her first years of University. Since then, yoga has been the single most positive influence on her life, both physically, spiritually and emotionally. 

Due to her devotion to the practice, and genuine enthusiasm to learn as much as possible, she decided to pursue teaching yoga as a career. After having an open hearted conversation with one of her yoga teachers, she quoted “I want to make a living – living” and from that moment on, has followed her passion. 

Her passion for yoga led her firstly to the Trinity Yoga Teacher Training Program in Calgary, where she received her Level 1 certification, and became a registered teacher with the Yoga Alliance. This solidified her understanding that yoga was her true creative outlet, and endowment that she wanted to continue sharing. 
	
The quest to further her expertise within the field, led her to the Nosara Yoga Institute in Costa Rica. This one month long Interdisciplinary Yoga Teacher Training Program included 200 hours of training in the following areas:

 -	The philosophy of yoga
 -	Cleansing effects of the yoga practice
 -	Physical anatomy
 -	Anatomy of inhalation/respiration
 -	Pranayama techniques to suit the needs of individual students.
 -	Mediation methods and benefits
 -	Physical postures, flows and sequences to meet the needs of students
 -	The Bandhas, and Chakras
 -	The student/teacher relationship – and how to establish a safe environment, and strong level of trust
 -	The professional business of yoga

 	In her teaching –- as in her life -– Kelly strives to cultivate harmony: balancing effort with relaxation, flexibility with strength and encouraging a unity of body, mind and spirit. She looks forward in continuously learning from her students, and expanding her knowledge within the field. Most importantly, she is excited about helping others open their heart, find their inner confidence, and view life circumstances from the most positive perspective.
