Yoga Trails Founder
Kyle Willets has a doctorate in physical therapy and is a registered yoga instructor through the Yoga Alliance. One day, she woke up and thought “I think I’ll take my yoga on a hike”.
It seemed a natural fit: yoga + hiking and Yoga Trails soon became the vision inspired by nature and a deep love for yoga. Awake with awe and wonder, Kyle embarked on Yoga Trails throughout the Andes Mountains of South America. It was there that she found incredible spaciousness, beauty, and peace which transformed her yoga practice. The heightened experiences of sensation, breath and breath-taking meditation on the trail was like nothing she had experienced in the studio.
Kyle believes in Mother Nature’s intrinsic ability to awaken consciousness and guide spiritual and personal development. She is passionate about facilitating this transformation for her clients through the intersection of yoga and hiking.
As a healer, Kyle enjoys assisting students one-on-one through private Therapeutic Yoga Lessons. These individualized lessons include a full intake and analysis of the individual’s alignment, muscle tone, balance, and flexibility. Students learn a combination of life-changing skills including: mediation, breathing techniques, posture, body-mind-spirit awareness, and asana (yoga poses). With time and dedicated practice individuals will find their bodies transformed and a deeper awareness revealed.
