Meg K.

Dealing with loneliness and isolation while living in Hong Kong, Meg discovered yoga as a physical outlet and mental practice, but also as a way to connect and build community. Years later and back stateside, she pursued a path as as a healer through yoga teacher training, earning her massage license, practicing herbalism and rounding it out working as a doula. She developed Trigger Point Yin while managing the yoga program at a climbing gym and seeing the injury and postural misalignment that the sport could cause as well as the mental control and breath management required to stay present and calm while pushing yourself on the wall. After the class took off, it was obvious that not just climbers were suffering from these problems or in need of reaction management and a shift in mindset. Having enthusiastically studied anthropology and literature, Meg finds the observation of humans to be endlessly fascinating and informative, and loves to weave what she’s learned from the folklore, philosophy, poetry and teachings of all cultures into her classes. From the Baba Yaga, the Bagivagita, and the Stoics to modern gems like Michael Singer and Elizabeth Gilbert, she finds that delivering the same message through a variety of paths helps more people pick up what she’s putting down.
“I love to work with bodies as a ‘way in’ to working with minds. When you’re in the flow of a really dynamic seamless yoga sequence, I believe your mind becomes much more open to possibility and even change. Same with trigger point yin; if you can get the physical hold-ups out of the way, if you can actually relax what you’ve been holding onto on a subconscious level, you can access more on an emotional level”
When she’s not working with clients, Meg can be found climbing or yoga-ing, but prefers to remain un-found while playing in her garden, horseback riding or backpacking.
