Kelly Collins

Teaches at Bird Rock Yoga

Born and raised in Southern California, Kelly began practicing yoga in 2009 to remedy chronic back pain. A former gymnast and cheerleader, Kelly became an NASM certified personal trainer and group fitness instructor in 2008 while getting her degree in Kinesiology at San Diego State University. After 5 years of practicing yoga on and off, Kelly decided to take a leap of faith and go to Bali to become a 200hr certified yoga instructor with the Awakened Life School of Yoga. While receiving her certification, Kelly experienced a lot of physical and emotional healing. By immersing herself in yoga, Kelly had a major life shift and fell completely in love with the practice.

In her classes, Kelly uses her energetic presence and creativity to both challenge her students and leave them feeling rejuvenated. She strives to push her students to new lengths and show them that they are capable of anything, on and off the mat.

When Kelly isn't practicing yoga, teaching clients, or planning out bucket list retreats, she enjoys running around with her beloved furbaby Coco, going on adventures, and drinking a glass of wine.
