Kimberly's Style of YogaKimberly uses an Iyengar-style training and more than twenty years of experience with diverse yoga practices to challenge and welcome students of every ability and body type. She has taught yoga styles ranging from vinyasa, yin and restorative, to prop-assisted hatha yoga for people who don't feel comfortable in fitness settings due to size, health or anxiety. Her classes encourage personal sovereignty, inner voice and an entitlement to health and vibrancy at all sizes, ages and abilities.

It sounds cliche to share that her work changed my life, but I do not have other language for it. Through her, I am learning to not only accept my body but to treat myself with kindness. Her work plays at the intersections of queerness, fat, gender and anti-racism work. Through her, I've learned about self-reflexivity and the complexities of performance as activism. Kimberly Dark mentored me the summer I took her course, and continues to do so via interactions on Facebook, email, and through revisiting her performance work myself. Her belief in continued relationships as being powerful is one of her largest strengths.
