“I actively encourage self-exploration and
self-expression through intuitive movement”

Fast forward a few years of consistent practice, and I enrolled in a 10-month 200-hour Yoga Teaching Training course with CAMYOGA, which I completed in the summer of 2019. In early 2020, I went on to study Advanced Assists and Touch Methodology (50hr) with Sunday School Yoga and am currently participating in Liberate, a 6-month mentorship programme with Naomi Absalom.

Whether I’m teaching a flow class, or a gentler practice, my focus is on empowering each student to fully inhabit their experience, be present with their bodies and anything else that may arise on the mat. I actively encourage self-exploration and self-expression through intuitive movement, to make each practice unique to the practitioner, fine tune our awareness and, ultimately, connect to Truth. Expect a breath centred and creative practice, accompanied by some funky, and soothing, beats.

“I was mesmerized at the positive rewards I
gained physically, emotionally and spiritually”

I then joined the fast pace and ever growing fitness industry and have been teaching for over 20 years.

I started practicing yoga and was mesmerized at the positive rewards I gained physically, emotionally and spiritually, so went on to teach yoga after RYS200 training at Hot Zen Yoga Studios.

My experience teaching in fitness has certainly had an influence on my yoga teaching style.
I am always amazed at how I have learnt to accept savasana!

“By practising yoga it gave me a safe space in
which I could leave any stresses at the door.”

By focusing on my mind and body, it allowed me to relax whilst also contributing to maintain a healthy lifestyle and keeping fit.I was privileged to immerse myself in my training on the beautiful tropical island of Koh Phangnan in Thailand, famed for its yoga and healing centres. It gave me a life experience like no other. I stayed on the island for sometime and enjoyed teaching there looking out over the ocean or across the mountains from the yoga shala. Bringing this experience home with me I now teach Vinyasa, Power Flow, Hatha and Yin.

My style can vary depending on the energy of the class, I like to see how people are feeling and create a sanctuary where you will have the best practice on your mat. I am also a Reiki Practitioner and believe that Prana (energy) needs to flow deeply and freely through our bodies, removing any blocks so that we can relieve stress, increase immunity and enhance our general wellbeing. With that in mind I like to create a practice which allows any blocks to open gently and bring you an overall sense of full body, mind and soul recharge after every class.

See you on the mat!

“Yoga was also my introduction to the art of
hand balancing, which i am a keen practitioner of!”

I am a Black Belt and qualified instructor in contact karate and kickboxing. Yoga has been a hugely beneficial part of my training and preparation, both physical and mental, for the many gradings and competitions that i used to do. Yoga was also my introduction to the art of hand balancing, which I am a keen practitioner of!

I qualified as a Yoga teacher in 2019 after studying in Rishikesh, India. I teach an Ashtanga Vinyasa class here at Tring Yoga Studio loosely structured around the Ashtanga Primary Series but influenced by others styles of yoga which i practice.

My aim is to help students progress in their asana practice. To help develop their strength and flexibility. My class offers a chance to work towards some of the more challenging postures in a playful and supportive environment.

Kim has a very clear mantra ‘breathe & enjoy’ which comes from a complete understanding that every student is on their own journey and brings their mat into class for a reason.

At the core of Kim’s teaching philosophy is the desire to ensure that every student understands and feels how their body moves within a posture/asana and/or through meditation. Her expertise and knowledge of Yoga combined with her desire to empower everyone to achieve their best practice is extraordinary.

Kim has always been involved in health, wellbeing and fitness, initially qualifying as a Fitness Instructor/Personal Trainer in 2002. She continued her learning and qualified as a Level 3 yoga teacher, through the Yoga Alliance & British Wheel of Yoga, in 2012. 

Kim’s areas of expertise include; Hatha Flow, Yin Yoga, Restorative Yoga, Yoga Nidra and Guided Meditation, for both groups and private sessions. Kim has also successfully led and supported workshops and retreats within the UK and Internationally. 

The proud mum of three boys, who are the greatest achievement in her life. She is also very grateful of her time working as a volunteer supporting various street children charities, which included projects in Calcutta, Nairobi, Rio, Romania and Bulgaria.

With everything that life throws at you, Kim’s secret indulgence is her fondness for cake. She is a keen baker, who loves the science of bringing a range of ingredients together to make something scrumptious. Which is very reminiscent one of her yoga practices…….delicious!
