Hess Kim began her yoga practice well over a decade ago and it has evolved from a physical curiosity to a grounding way of life. She finds yoga an eternal lesson on mental flexibility, strength and compassion and teaches her classes with that in mind. Hess studied with Dharma Mittra for her 200 hr Teacher Training, received her Prenatal/Postnatal certification with Deb Flashenberg and Nikita Maxwell at the Prenatal Yoga Center and Alison West for her 300 hour Teacher Training. She is in the process of becoming an Elise Browning-Miller certified Yoga teacher for Backcare and Scoliosis and studies with Deborah Wolk and assists her Yoga for Scoliosis classes. She is also a birth doula (DONA) and holds a degree in Child Development and American Studies from Tufts University. When she’s not up to her C7 reading and exploring anatomy, philosophy and pranayama, you can find her somewhere outdoors hiking, biking or photographing nature.
