Kimberly's emphasis is finding the balance between effort and ease in each asana as well as learning to listen to the wisdom of your body. She is passionate about yoga and eager to share the deep, rich tradition which focus on healing from the”inside-out,” benefiting the WHOLE person, mind, body & soul. She believes every journey inward begins with a technique, but it can only progress if you allow yourself to move beyond the mechanics and into the movement. She has been practicing yoga since 2000.
Since the age of 14 Kim Salisbury has been dedicated and devoted to fitness. Running, surfing, swimming, resistance training, hiking, water and snow skiing....you name it and she does it. Kim has always felt alive and invigorated when moving and challenging her body. Her passion for fitness led her to a career in personal training and later a certified Pilates instructor. With all the physical wear and tear over the years and moving all day with her profession Kim started to feel her body breaking down. She then found YOGA! "Yoga has restored, regenerated and rebuilt my body.

I’ve been interested in health & fitness for most of my life and enjoyed running, playing tennis and attending the occasional yoga class. After completing my first (and last) marathon in November 2005, I decided to run less and devote more energy towards yoga, increasing my practice to 4-5 times per week. After several months of practice, I noticed my muscles became leaner, longer, and stronger and my mind became calmer and more focused. What began as a way of staying healthy and fit soon transformed into devotion and a way of life. I became a Certified Yoga Teacher in 2005.
