KENNY
LANDIS

He/Him

Teacher Training

What is something that would surprise me about you?
I started school when I as 3 in Germany, was held back in 4th grade in Alabama because I was too young, and then was emancipated my senior year at 17… and I have three middle names.

What can I expect from your class?
You can expect me to ask you to show up as you are and find comfort in this human form – along with some physically challenging insanity.  

No matter the class title, you’re invited to explore your needs in that moment – even if that means you take savasana for the entire vinyasa class.

What is the most essential part of practice for you?
The most essential part of the practice for me is to continually remember to redefine the practice in terms of a way of being and not reduce it to the postures on the mat.

Kenny’s journey into yoga has been a series of happen chances starting from his first yoga class in a group fitness class at his gym in the early 2000s.  His journey has always paralleled between his success in the traditional corporate environment, his passion for the study of yoga and the interplay they have in our modern culture of the “more is more” mentality.  Throughout his time as both a student and teacher of yoga, Kenny has had the great opportunity to study with many of yoga’s contemporary wisdom keepers and yoga luminaries.

After years on the mat, he stumbled yet again onto the idea of bringing some of his most influential teachers and wish-list teachers to his home community in the pacific northwest during a Wanderlust adventure in Canada.  In 2014, he co-founded YogaLab NorthWest, the leading yoga training & workshop-based production company attracting international teachers from around the globe to the Seattle & Portland area.

In 2016 Kenny became the Director of Logistics & Communication as well as served as a teacher training faculty member for an international yoga teacher training school, where he brought his business acumen and experience in training & development to support the expansion of global and domestic programs.

He brings his keen eye into every class he teaches where he threads insights not only from posture to posture, but from class to class. You can expect to see physical challenges and philosophical themes carried across multiple weeks in order to provide the space for you to be a student of the practice and explore not only your physical possibilities but ultimately your mental landscape while on the yoga mat.

Kenny views yoga as a practice of introspection and personal growth built on the foundation, we lay for ourselves daily. He is enthralled with the endless journey that combines the calming of your mind, tuning into every fiber of your body, and the pure athleticism of dynamic asana and their ability to transform our lives!
