About Kendall
Founder of Vibrasana
At the heart of this work is a deep sense of purpose: to support people back into nervous system regulation through breath, movement, and vibrational frequency, and to live in true sevā - devoted, loving service - to the communities I am blessed to be part of.
My hope is that through this experience, you feel held - guided into presence, restoration, and renewal. Your Vibrasana journey will be uniquely your own.
My Roots:
I grew up in Auburn, California, a small town in the Sierra Foothills, with weekends often spent among the granite and pines of the Truckee area. Yoga first came into my life through my family - my mom and sister both completed their advanced yoga teacher trainings while I was in college. From there, they each followed their own paths: my sister became a Clinical Ayurvedic Specialist, and my mom went on to become a yoga and pilates teacher as well as a personal trainer.
At the time, I didn't feel a personal connection to yoga. I viewed it more as a workout - something I occasionally dabbled in through CorePower Sculpt classes. What did resonate with me were music, movement, and creative expression - I grew up playing piano, and it would go on to shape how I hear and create sound today.
Music, Movement, and the Corporate Ladder
After college, I became immersed in the Bay Area and global music scene - volunteer ushering at shows, and traveling across the country and world for music festivals. I also fell in love with fitness during this time, and the strength I felt through lifting weights and moving my body intentionally.
In my 20s, I was focused on climbing the corporate ladder and building a career in tech. For over a decade I've worked in the software industry, collaborating with global teams, leading complex programs, and building apps and tools that help teams work smarter. Now, I'm finding deeper gratitude and abundance in where I am, allowing space for expansion in other parts of life while continuing to enjoy working and creating.
The Turning Point
During my second visit to Electric Forest Festival in Michigan, I wandered into a meditation workshop led by Hannah Muse. I was inspired by the experience and continued returning to her sessions in the years that followed, eventually attending her retreat on yoga, myth, and devotion at the Esalen Institute. That experience opened a new doorway for me and inspired me to sign up for her 200-hour yoga teacher training in Santa Cruz, California.
I completed the 200-hour program, and also completed a 50 hour vinyasa flow training with Kelly Calahan of Indigo Yoga. Since then, I’ve completed several trainings (listed below), and consider myself to be a lifelong student of yoga and sound meditation. Throughout this journey, I’ve come to understand yoga as so much more than movement - embracing prāṇāyāma (breathwork), dhyāna (meditation), mantra, and ritual as essential parts of the practice.
Finding Sound Meditation
During yoga teacher training, I committed to a daily prāṇāyāma and meditation sādhanā (spiritual practice), which became an anchor in my yoga practice. One day, a dear friend lent me her crystal quartz sound bowl, and it opened up an entirely new pathway - one that allowed me to explore how sound could support and deepen the energetic and emotional layers of yoga. Following this, I completed both Zoom and in-person trainings with Simona and Guy of Sound Meditation Presents.
Today
Since completing my trainings, it has been such a privilege to share the Vibrasana offering with my Bay Area and Truckee communities, and I am filled with gratitude every time we come together to breathe, move, and rest in community.
I am so honored to have brought this offering to festivals like Coachella, and I look forward to returning again next year.
I would love to have you come breathe, move, and rest with me - check out my upcoming events, learn more about the offering, join the newsletter, and work with me. You can also get in touch here.
