Kiki Says It All

From her early origins in a full Opus Dei Catholic school in England to landing the part of Ariel Sharon the Israeli stripper in the blockbuster movie Striptease to becoming a leading figure in the Ashtanga yoga community and now holding the Guinness World Record for the longest held downward facing dog, Kimberly “Kiki” Flynn has lived a fantastical life.

As student of Lee Strasburg’s “Method” School of Acting in NYC, she also began learning Kundalini yoga in 1982. Shortly afterward, she was recruited by the CIA for her linguistic skills (the first of three attempts). Kiki became a student and teacher of Ashtanga yoga in the early 90s at Jivamukti Yoga. Shortly after Sri K. Pattabhi Jois came to visit on at teaching tour in 1993, she made her way to Mysore and quickly became the Doyenne of an ever growing group of new students who continued to gather year after year to learn from Pattabhi Jois. She was our personal Sanskrit tutor and guide to all things culturally appropriate in India.

Ms. Flynn presciently opened her first yoga school in chic Silverlake, Los Angeles in 1996. She has since led workshops and events throughout North America, Latin America, Asia, Europe, and the Middle East. 

As a wellness coach and private yoga teacher, her clients include Oscar and Grammy award winners, Pop Queens and crowned royalty. 

Kiki also creates transformational yoga programming for individuals and communities with Multiple Sclerosis, Spinal Cord Injury, TBI, PTSD and other neurological and mobility related concerns. She has taught and coached 1000s of students, and 100s of teachers and yoga school owner/entrepreneurs.  

She recently launched and produces Kiki TV, a cloud based center for Wellbeing, Yoga, and Optimal Living with 100s of hours of video-on-demand, live Zoom classes, Sanskrit, chanting, tutorials and inspiration. Try a Free 10-Day Trial.

She is also passionate about coaching yoga teachers and wellness professionals to entrepreneurial success and 6-figure incomes. Find out more here.
