Hi beautiful people, my name is Kelly! I arrived to Costa Rica 19 years ago as a backpacker longing to see the world, take a break from the fast paced life I knew and begin a journey of self discovery. I was aware as soon as I stepped foot in Costa Rica it would be a place I forever held close to my heart. What I didn't know was the way my life would unfold over the next few years. To make a long story short, I fell in love with more than just the country, trusted my intuition and have been blessed to live here ever since. You will find me in gorgeous Playa Carrillo deep in study, on my sacred mat, facilitating yoga teacher trainings & retreats, relaxing with my toes in the sand, the sun upon my face and watching my children run wild and free along the beach. I am dedicated to personal development and my continued education as a yoga educator and mentor.
I am grateful and excited to share with you all that I have integrated into my practice and teaching over the last 20 years. My purpose as a yoga teacher is to empower you through the practice of yoga, awareness and personal development to create positive changes that allow you to show up more effectively in all areas of your life. I challenge you to face your blocks and limiting beliefs to create more freedom and flow. My public classes are intuitively guided and created around those who arrive each day, their specific needs and requests as well as the energy of the group. Your time on your mat is your experience - I am there to hold space for you to arrive into each breath and each moment exactly as you are. A space for you to get curious about who you are and how you’re showing up in your life and in your relationships.
I look forward to spending time with you on and off the mat!

Vinyasa
Vinyasa Flow
A Vinyasa Flow is a beautiful practice for mixed levels that connects your movements with your breath. Vinyasa means; to place in a special order. You will flow from one asana (posture) to another with the focus of breath awareness (pranayama) and connection. When the breath, mind and body unite this free flowing practice becomes a moving meditation.
Our experienced teacher is trained to adapt each class to the energy in the room and each student present that day. Classes vary each day and are suitable for all levels of experience, all ages and body types.
Gentle Hatha
Gentle Hatha
This is a slow, grounded practice for anybody. There are little standing postures. You will experience slow movement, gentle stretches, pranayama and light meditation throughout the practice. No experience is necessary.
Multi Barre
The Multi Barre Method does not incorporate ballet, dance, yoga, cardio or long dynamic movements. The movements are a blend of modern postural alignment theory, core activation, glute, leg and arm strengthening movements.
The goal of the class is to sweat, burn and shake! These classes therefore producing immediate results in a safe and effective way.
Classes are suitable for all levels, and no experience is necessary. You will leave your Multi Barre class having a full body workout.

“When carving stone, the sculptor removes everything that is not the statue. The art of revealing beauty lies in removing what conceals it. So, too, Patanjali [in the Yoga Sutras] tells us that wholeness exists within us. Our work is to chisel away at everything that is not essence, not Self.”
