Kyra Weinberger

E-RYT 500, YACEP

Kyra grew up with dance, music, and yoga filling her home. She took the path of musical theater and ballet performing with professional companies from the age of 8. It was her first love and career, but it was not a forever love. Kyra knew at 19 years old, walking out of her first Intro to Ashtanga class she had found something that had always been missing. Unfortunately, the path wasn't exactly simple. Having dealt with an eating disorder and the anxiety for many years, it was not until recovery that a real practice was possible.

She was given the opportunity to study under Lisa Schrempp KPJAYI level 2 and quickly became her mentee. After receiving her 200hr, Kyra assisted Lisa in Mysore classes and became certified to teach in 2009. Along the way she has been honored to study asana with Laruga Glaser, Kino MacGregor, Richard Freeman, Laura Spaulding, Harmony Slater, Ruth Lauer-Manenti, and others. She is now a student of Sharath Jois and looks forward to her next trip to Mysore. Kyra is also trained to teach vinyasa with heavy Juvamukti influence, as well as Acro Yoga. She studies chanting and Sanskrit with Tara Mitra.

The practice of Ashtanga has given Kyra tools to create a life of discipline and love. She hopes to translate her passion into her teaching.
