Kim Drake

INSTRUCTOR

Kim lives in Simsbury and graduated from 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training at Journey of Yoga in 2023. After many years in competitive sports, including gymnastics, Kim turned her focus to the growing of mind, spirit and body through the practice of yoga. After a serious back injury from skiing, Kim learned how to use modifications and body awareness to aid recovery.

Kim thrives on variety and teaches/practices vinyasa, gentle, restorative, chair, and yoga for golfers. Many people say, “I can’t do yoga.” But Kim’s reply is “if you can breathe, you're a yogi.”

Kim worked at ESPN for 43 years and recently retired. She is an avid sports fan and loves to ski, swim, paddleboard, and play pickleball.

Kim is a proud mom of a son and daughter, Ryan and Darby, who both grew up in Simsbury. She recently welcomed a grandson, Charlie, to the family.

She hopes you'll join one of her classes to feel renewed, restored, rejuvenated and feel the energy she brings to the class.
