Meet the Instructors
I'm Kellie Hoffman and I have lived in West Virginia all my life. I have degrees from Marshall University and Mountwest Community College. I have practiced yoga for 16 years. In 2020, I decided to go ahead and become a certified yoga instructor. I attended Brooke Sullivan's The WIld Temple and am now an RYT-200 Yoga instructor. I have done many types of yoga such as Kundalini, Hatha and HIIT Yoga. I trained in the Himalayan Sage tradition and I absolutely love it.
I'm also a 600 hour certified Ayurvedic Health Counselor and am the owner of Be Centered Health Coaching and Yoga. I love teaching others how to live healthier and take care of themselves by using the ancient sciences of Yoga and Ayurveda.
