Kali Navada

Instructor

Salt Spring Island Wellness Centre

Kali Navada is certified in Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy (BCST) and Thai Yoga massage. From her experience of working with clients around the world, she has refined her listening, presence and therapeutic skills in order to hold trauma-informed, non-judgmental space. She deeply honours the inherent wisdom that exists within the human body, and aims to support rather than force change. Kali compassionately supports the resolution of held trauma by gently working with the nervous system, the joints, tissues, pranic body, as well as any emotional and psychological processes. She is eternally grateful for her teachers of craniosacral therapy and Thai yoga massage.She currently offers Thai yoga massage and craniosacral therapy at the Centre.She has also been deeply devoted to practicing, studying and teaching yoga since earning her certification in Rishikesh, India in 2013. She skillfully creates classes that are designed to activate, inspire and anchor students into their bodies. Each offering is intentionally crafted to integrate the body, psyche and spirit to a place of wholeness. Kali creates bhav (mood/tone) to quietly observe the quality of breath and connect to the inner landscape. She implements the tools of proper biomechanics, pranayama (breath), mantra and mudra to direct the currents of energy towards healing and transformation. While Kali respects the roots of traditional yoga, her passion is to provide a panacea for the afflictions we face in our modern world. To her, yoga moves beyond a physical practice; it is a way to harmonize our personal, cultural, sexual, ecological and social lives. As a passionate, articulate and dedicated practitioner, Kali is incredibly grateful to walk the path of yoga.
