Kelly Hardy, 200RYT

Kelly found her way to yoga in 1999, stumbling into a six-week series at the local Y. After changing gyms and realizing that she was only visiting the gym to practice yoga, she made the leap to find a steady Ashtanga practice at a nearby studio. As her asana practice grew, so did her belief and dedication to the precepts of the yoga scriptures and she made the decision to take her commitment a step further, completing her 200-hour RYT certification in August of 2006. In 2008, under the direction of Chandra Om, she began the North Carolina School of Yoga 500 hour certification program.
Kelly is inspired by the teachings of Rolf Gates, Chandra OM and Dharma Mittra and incorporates aspects of their teachings into her classes. She believes in promoting self-acceptance through nurturing each person’s unique experience with yoga.
