TRE & Education…
Hi, I’m Kiara, your healing partner, advocate and educator.
My education in stress management has been both personal and academic. Having healed from both PTSD and cancer, I learned firsthand how chronic stress leads to disease, while also learning the tools that work to make ongoing stress manageable and even healthy. I offer one-on-one, couples, group and corporate sessions ranging from individual bodywork to large group trainings.

Looking for weekly one-on-one yoga instruction? Wanting a private yoga session for your group while on vacation? Or seeking to host a tailored yoga session for a corporate group?

Massage Therapy
Receive skilled and advanced bodywork treatments for an affordable price. I’m experienced in working with and helping to alleviate chronic pain and tissue injury symptoms. My understanding of anatomy helps me to target the issue and address the problem. Providing numerous techniques, I help clients with targeted pain management and ongoing maintenance care.
TRE®
Tension & Trauma Release Exercises (or TRE®) is a simple yet innovative series of exercises that assist the body in releasing deep muscular patterns of stress, tension and trauma. Created by Dr. David Berceli, PhD, TRE safely activates a natural reflex mechanism of shaking or vibrating that releases muscular tension, calming down the nervous system. When this muscular shaking/vibrating mechanism is activated in a safe and controlled environment, the body is encouraged to return back to a state of balance.
Trainings
I have taught thousands of classes over the past decade including both 200 and 300 hour yoga teacher trainings. I have also attended thousands of trainings myself. All of this experience helps me be an effective educator and mentor. I lead Rubber Band Method® CEU trainings in-person and online, Mind-Body Fitness Trainings for private groups, 200 + 300 Yoga Teacher Trainings and individual mentorship.
What Clients are saying about Kiara
Yoga
“Kiara is gifted with strength and intuition and is an incredible leader. She has a deep understanding of all aspects of yoga; her classes incorporate a vast knowledge of anatomy, history and energy. When Kiara is leading a class, workshop or training, you sense quickly that you are in very capable hands and you will leave more open, stronger, wiser and a little closer to unlocking the secrets of the universe.”
— ELIZABETH
Massage
“Kiara is an extremely talented healer that has a scientific and holistic approach. As a retired professional athlete with several injuries, I can say there are few massage therapists that understand anatomy and body work as well as Kiara. I have worked with some of the best over the last 30+ years and no one has helped me as much as she has; the combination of her strength and energy is a healing experience.”
— NICOLE
TRE®
“I’m loving my TRE sessions. I cannot get over how much easier it is to deal with stress. I’m inherently a bit tightly wound and a perfectionist, but I seem to get way less activated and just feel calmer. Thank you!”
— DANIELLE
Trainings
“After taking this course, I feel like a much more equipped teacher, and I have more knowledge on how to keep my students safe in their practice. Beyond diving into anatomy, we learned so much about how to properly prep the body to go into certain shapes safely, and how these shapes will always look different from student to student. I especially loved studying the nervous system, brain, lymphatic system and nerves. I feel like that is so important for yoga teachers to know about, but it is generally overlooked! I feel very prepared to teach public classes and privates with all of this new knowledge, and also have learned so much about my body and my own practice.”
— ASHLEIGH, 300 HOUR YOGA TEACHER TRAINING GRADUATE
