ABOUT KIRA
I am a PNW born and bred girl. I love it here! You’ll find me doing just about anything OUTSIDE. I am incredibly grateful to have found such joy as a healer, a yogi, and most importantly, as a MOM!! I have two amazing teenage boys that remind me what it’s all about every single day.
I have been practicing (and loving!) bodywork for over 19 years, after receiving my training at Brenneke School of Massage in Seattle. I continue to fill my "toolbox" with different techniques, modalities, knowledge and experiences that I bring to my sessions.
I don't have a set "sequence" or routine, I've never given the same massage twice. I listen, with my hands and with my heart. Most of the time my eyes are closed when I work. It is my honor to hold space for your healing, to give your body and mind permission and encouragement to let go. I offer my intuition, love, energy and work together with my clients to create and construct a truly unique, healing experience.
A deep need and a sincere curiosity brought me to yoga. In the beginning, it was the physical connnection I was seeking, and craving. Similar to ultra running, skiing and backpacking, it was an avenue to explore myself physically, to just BE in this exquisite union with my body and nature. Later, as I gave myself complete permission to be open to a deeper connection within myself, I started to understand the way it could and would change the way I practice my life and how I choose to experience the world.
My Mom has been my most powerful and constant teacher, bringing the practice into our home, her classrooms and her interactions with all of us lucky enough to know her- but I have also been blessed with practicing and learning from extraordinary teachers throughout the Pacific Northwest, and most anywhere I travel. I completed my training at Shakti Vinyasa Yoga with a foundation in Baptiste Power Vinyasa.
I want to inspire curiosity and authenticity in my students. I strive to foster a space of freedom for exploration, possibility, acceptance and FUN- to make every class an invitation to GROW. A return to LOVE.
