About Kino & Tim

Kino MacGregor and Tim Feldmann, co-founders of the renowned Miami Life Center and the newly opened Miami Yoga Garage, met over two decades ago in India through Ashtanga Yoga. Their lives revolve around their shared spiritual practice in sunny Miami, where they enjoy beach walks and cultivating mangoes. Together, they bring a magical synergy to the yoga room, infusing their teaching with compassion, authenticity, and inspiration honed through over 25 years of disciplined personal practice.

Tim, originally from Denmark, holds an authorized Level 2 certification from K. Pattabhi Jois and R. Sharath Jois, and he has practiced yoga since 1994. His background as a successful international dancer and acclaimed choreographer informs his teaching, emphasizing anatomy, alignment, and technique. Tim’s extensive studies in South India, guided by scholars like Vidwan Nagaraja Rao, Jayashree, Narasimha and others, have deepened his understanding of Patañjali, Sankhya, and Vedanta.

Kino, on the other hand, discovered yoga at 19, embarked on a journey to India at 22, and crossed paths with her teachers, K. Pattabhi Jois and R. Sharath Jois. Since then, she has devoted herself to a daily sadhana of Vipassana meditation and Ashtanga Yoga, shaping her teaching around these two traditions. One of the few people to practice into the Fifth Series, Advanced D, she received Certification to teacher from K. Pattabhi Jois before his passing. With a prominent presence in the yoga community, Kino is the founder of Omstars.com, an author of seven books, the producer of the Yoga Inspiration podcast, and boasts a vast following on social media platforms, including over 1 million Instagram followers, 800,000 YouTube subscribers, and more across other channels.

Thank you and hope you have a great day!

Adaptive variations, hands-on adjustments, pranayama explication, sound healing, etc. will be integrated and explored, especially during the afternoon-themed workshops.
