I love Kim’s calm energy! She doesn’t rush- she takes her time to make sure the students know that she is present and happy to help them with whatever they might need. She has a genuine passion for helping others- it comes through in her teaching and it is just who she is- I admire this about her sooo much!

Kim teaches from the heart. Her passion for teaching is apparent in how much she lights up when connecting with the students. She always has a kind word or thought for not only the students but her co-workers as well. It is always a pleasure to work with her and I consider myself lucky to have been one of her students!

Kim is a bright light, an old soul, and makes everyone feel important every day. She is immensely knowledgeable on so many aspects of the healing arts, yet incredibly humble. Kim makes you want to keep learning and be better.

Kim is a one-of-a-kind instructor who is beyond patient with her teaching style and a passion to make sure her students “get it”. She seamlessly blends tips from all programs into what she shows without overstepping the scope of practice. Kim never hesitates to give little extra tips and tricks that can take a service from good to great.
