Kim Yates is a seasoned yogi, mindfulness practitioner, and the founder of KIYA Wellbeing. After more than 20 years in corporate event management, operations and administration she made a deliberate pivot to share what she'd discovered: that yoga and meditation aren't nice-to-haves. They're essential.
Her teaching is calm, grounded, and deeply compassionate. She specialises in yin yoga, meditation, and reiki — and brings the same thoroughness she applied in the boardroom to every session she holds.
