About Kira Maar
For more than 15 years of practice, I have learned that yoga is much more than just a physical exercise. It is a practice of compassionate discipline, breath, meditation, energy work, as well as asana. The practice of yoga is to unite all the parts of our body, mind and spirit in order to create in our lives balance, stability and peacefulness. In my yoga classes and in our private sessions you will experience a unique blend of strong alignment based asana practice, mindful meditation, Kira’s Bliss essential oils, and pranayama. The meditation you will experience in all my classes allows you to become more aware of exactly who you are, and your truth in every moment. Through meditation practice, I will help you hone an ability to be present in life no matter how challenging.

"Kira is an exceptionally gifted teacher and mentor, and I always leave her classes feeling like I've consciously worked and enlightened my body. I adore her, especially her off-beat sense of humor. What is most impressive is her attention to alignment and physiology. A lot of yoga classes leave me feeling I've gone through the motions--and often, too many of the same motions. Kira is always inventive, curious, and nimble with her intelligence. She is an inspiration and a gift!" - Claudia S.
