Kendra Rickert

Drawing from the blessing of having studied for years at the feet of many masters, her asana classes incorporate an in-depth knowledge of precise inner and outer body alignment coupled with deep devotion to practice and a longing for all the benefits that it breeds. Kendra was first certified to teach by Bikram Choudhury in 2002 and taught under his guidance at his International Headquarters in Los Angeles for four years before going on to years of training and finally certification with Sri Dharma Mittra in New York City. She then went on to study principles of Yoga and Buddhism focusing on meditation, theory, dialectic, and service for nearly a decade at Diamond Mountain University and has taught these topics, and asana infused with these topics in the China, Europe, and the United States. In April 2014 she and her husband completed a 3 year, 3 month, and 3 day traditional silent meditation retreat in a small cabin in the Chiricahua Mountains of Southern Arizona.
