Testimonial

A refreshingly authentic, grounding, and beautiful experience. -Anonymous

The first time I ever felt home in a yoga class was with Kevin. He has been a pivotal teacher in my life and his one-on-one mentorship has helped me connect with the deepest, most inner part of myself longing for meaning. Through getting to know me, Kevin shared his knowledge and experience with me in ways that felt so intentional and resonated with my soul. He helped me come out of my head and into my body – With our sessions, it was never about knowing something, it was about feeling it. I can feel qi/prana in my body, I can tune into its movement as I breathe, I can trust it as a life-giving force. This wisdom, and so much more from the mentorship, has held me in times of darkness. Kevin’s light will always be a guide for me and I am forever grateful to call him my teacher & friend. -Zahura A.
