Kimberly, Instructor

Kimberly's life passion is helping people better their lives and live a healthier lifestyle. 

After 17 years practicing as a pediatrician (2000-2017), she pursued a new career path as an Eating Disorder Intuitive Therapist (EDIT), Nutrition counselor and yoga instructor. Helping others experience health and wellness is her joy and focus in life.

Her personal yoga journey began in 2003. She initially took yoga classes at a local gym to help balance her strength and recovery while she competed as an endurance athlete. Yoga was a place allowing her to slow down, stretch, and enjoy recovery benefits. Her favorite classes were power yoga and slow flow ending in deeper yin and restorative poses.

She loves to learn and has been certified in 200hr YTT, 100hr Holy Yoga Training, and Disordered Eating Focused Yoga Teacher Training. 

Through the practice of yoga in her private medical practice, she helps women and teens find strength in their own bodies, love and appreciation for how they are built, and a place to let go of the stress and rush of life. Through nutrition education, exploring triggers, and rewiring old habits and patterns, Dr. Kimberly has led many through the recovery process into a life free of food and body image obsession.

She is excited to bring her love for power yoga and fitness to Blue Ridge Yoga. Her high energy and enthusiasm lend to a dynamic experience that you are sure to love!
