Kimberly Wagaman - Registered Yoga Teacher, 500 hours
My yoga roots are in the Iyengar tradition and have spread over the years to include a variety of
practice methodologies and ideas. It is my desire and emphasis in teaching to offer the potential
for self-healing with yoga, a greater awareness of the body mind continuum, and the building
toward the beginnings of meditation. My own limitations with a severe scoliosis have shaped and
influenced my practice and teaching significantly, and I continue to explore and discover the
transformative and healing qualities yoga can offer. I specialize in yoga for people with scoliosis, I
teach regular classes, adaptive gentle yoga for people with limitations, and I offer private one on
one sessions. Contact Kim at 916-534-2721 or kcwagaman@gmail.com.
