About Kendra Hinton
Where Kendra’s yoga practice began
Kendra fell in love with yoga after her first class in about 2010. The reduction of physical pain was the first reason for her practice, but she continues to practice for spiritual growth, mental/physical health/wellbeing. Yoga influences how she approaches each person she cares for in a professional capacity as a Registered Nurse and yoga teacher as well as in her personal life. She will often tell folks “yoga saves my life everyday.”
Motherhood & Burnout
Journeying into motherhood in 2019 with the premature birth of her twin girls, followed by returning to an understaffed workforce quickly became unsustainable. This is where Kendra learned rest is dharmic (honours divine order). This experience has led Kendra to love and appreciate practicing truly restorative and rejuvenating yoga that soothes the nervous system and provides you with the opportunity to replenish your energy by utilizing the guided awareness of yoga nidra (yogic sleep), pranayama (breath work), the gentle flow of asana (pose) sequences and restful restorative asana.
Kendra’s Inspiring Teachers
Kendra has had many inspiring teachers. She started her practice in Ashtanga with Lindsay Gulanes, which was very supportive for her battle with depression. Then took her 200h YTT with Denise Davis-Gains, who’s approach of Samasa (Fusion) Yoga, which includes easeful, gentle flowing and yet dynamic asana, pranayama, visualization, yoga nidra continues to be a staple in what Kendra shares with her students. Nora Benian’s teachings on therapeutic yoga provided a deep impression on Kendra’s approach to asanas for varied abilities. All the teachers of Amma Yoga in Kitchener, especially the inspiring and supportive owner Thea Mistry have impacted how Kendra teaches. Kendra currently is focusing on study with Kaya Mindlin, deepening her understanding of yogic philosophy and the restorative practice of Supreme Release Yoga (SRY). SRY has exponentially impacted her healing journey in postpartum, IBS, eczema and burnout and she loves sharing this transformative practice with others!
