Kelly grew up watching her grandmother practice tai chi early in the mornings and an uncle who was Buddhist and was always either upside down or in meditation. She was always very curious about the mind and body connection and it wasn’t until 2003 that she would began her own exploration. While at a meditation retreat in Southern Thailand she practiced meditation and yoga at 4am as the sun rose. Each day, she noticed her flexibility rapidly changing. In addition to the flexibility, she found many poses that finally gave her control over her asthma and digestive issues. In 2005, Kelly began her 200-Hour certification at Yoga Space, Toronto, Canada and shortly after moved to New York City. She then completed her Advanced 300 training with Alan Finger at Ishta Yoga in 2011. She teaches with an enthusiasm and commitment that encourages others to find their special connection to the practice. Her intention is simply for her students to revel in the magic of yoga and to soak up all of its truly amazing benefits.
