Teaching Style
Kenzie’s teaching is centered around creating an accessible practice where every student feels supported and welcomed. She blends alignment with an understanding of yogic philosophy, crafting a holistic approach that honors each individual’s body and experience. With a focus on mindful movement, Kenzie encourages students to connect with their breath and body, guiding them toward a sense of presence and awareness.
How Yoga Serves Kenzie
For Kenzie, yoga is a moving meditation—a place where she can truly feel embodied. It provides her with the opportunity to be present and connected in a way that goes beyond the physical postures. Every movement in yoga encourages her to listen to her body and honor its needs in that moment. Through this practice, Kenzie feels grounded, creating a bridge between mind, body, and spirit. Yoga helps her tune into the sensations she experiences, which is a constant reminder of the importance of self-awareness and mindfulness. Embodiment in yoga means embracing each movement as an expression of who she is in the present moment, without judgment or expectation.
Words of Wisdom
One of Kenzie’s favorite teachings comes from the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali: “Yogas chitta vritti nirodhah” (Yoga is the stilling of the fluctuations of the mind). This sutra reminds her that yoga is more than just physical postures—it’s a way to quiet the mind and cultivate a stronger connection with the self.
Background
Yoga found Kenzie in 2022, and it quickly became an essential part of her daily routine. What started as a simple practice soon transformed into a powerful tool for self-discovery and well-being. As she immersed herself deeper into the practice, Kenzie felt its profound effects not just on her body, but on her mind and spirit. This journey inspired her to pursue a 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training. Yoga has since enriched every aspect of her life, allowing her to grow not only as a teacher, but as a person, friend, daughter, and neighbor. Kenzie has found a sense of community and connection, and she is passionate about sharing these transformative experiences with her students, empowering them to explore their own journeys of growth and self-awareness.
