Hi! My name is Kerry and I have been a student of yoga for 23 years and teaching for more than 10! I have studied and taught several lineages throughout the years, including:

• Power Yoga

• Dharma Mitra

• Anusara

• Shivananda

• Kundalini

• Restorative

• Jivamukti

• Iyengar

• Vinyasa

• Hatha

• Yin

I have been submerged in the wellness field and healing arts for over 15years. A combination of surviving a traumatic childhood & sudden chronic illness led me on a journey towards self-healing and empowerment. Yonah Mountain Yoga & Wellness Adventures is the result of that process.

I was a very sensitive to energy as a child and often felt like a misfit, wondering how & where I fit in. Aways a deep feeler with a strong sense of “knowing,” I was told by many in my young adult years that I had extra sensory abilities and that’s when life began to make a bit more sense.

It was no accident that the illness was a huge catalyst in bridging the gap between my childhood experiences and the reality of how far off my path I had ventured. I was essentially forced to slow down, pivot and re-direct my focus and life choices. Our bodies are so intelligent and our higher selves our always working in our favor. The “illness” was in essence a guidepost, leading me down a different path and showing me a new way forward.

I have since explored both spiritual and clinical avenues to healing and what I have come to realize is that healing is in the LIVING. See my Blog post, “Healing in the Wild”.

I ‘ve obtained multiple certifications thoroughout this process, in a persistent pursuit for wisdom, including:

• 200RYT (Hatha)

• Aerial Yoga

• Trauma Sensitive Yoga

• Chinese Medicine for Yoga

• Nurtured Heart Approach

• Mental Health First Aid

• Wilderness First Aid

• Elementary Education

• Health & Wellness Practitioner

• Peer Recovery Coach

• SMART Recovery Facilitator

• Mental Health Professional (Pursuing a master's in Clinical Mental Health Counseling)

I created a Youtube video underlying some of the traumatic events that brought me here, if your interest is piqued:

I am so grateful to have you visit and look forward to adventuring with you!

Stay Wild

Kerry
