A note from our Founder, Shelby
Hi, I'm Shelby Isenhart. I founded KBY in the year 2021 in my backyard. Since then, we've evolved into a beautiful community! You can learn more about our story, and our values here. ​
​We have an amazing team of instructors with different styles and attributes they bring to our lineup of classes. If you're new here, I encourage you to check out as many classes and instructors you can to find your perfect fit. While we strive to keep this page updated, our app is the easiest way to see our present offerings. Learn more about our classes here.
I am a certified yoga instructor through the Roots of Yoga program facilitated by Rootead & Sangha Yoga Institute in Kalamazoo, MI. If you'd like to join me in class, here is my current list of offerings: Parent & Pipsqueak, Body Positive, LGBTQIA+ Yoga, No More Sunday Scaries, Body Liberation, and Check-in.
