“After visiting extensive yoga studios throughout San Diego, I am very grateful to have found Kendall! I have attended morning yoga classes with her for several months and it is my pleasure to write this endorsement. Kendall brings wonderful poise and mindfulness to our classes. I appreciate her attention to pace and breath, her consistent attention to the mental and physical aspects of yoga practice, and that she offers modifications for individuals who want more challenge or more surrender. As a Yin/Restorative yoga fan, I am thrilled with Kendall’s abilities and I selfishly look forward to even deeper experiences she continues to learn.”
Another excellent Valentine’s Day in the books with @mattsonaction. I’m so happy that we didn’t let my broken wrist stop us from enjoying another adventure to Mexico. We kayaked across a little bay so we could have our own private beach to drink beers on and treasure hunt for seashells, fish bones and coral. I’m the luckiest lady. 😍

This time last year @mattsonaction & I were in #elpotrerochico climbing our hearts out.
.
Here’s what I wrote last year after this climb “This climb was the most challenging climb of my life so far. Both mentally and physically. I’ve climbed higher grade climbs but this one required the use of some techniques I’m not super experienced in and was the longest & tallest climb I’ve ever done. The climb is called SNOT GIRLZ: The first pitch is a 10d crack climb with some face holds but it was the most challenging climb of the trip so far and really pushed my limit. Following that is 2 pitches of 10c Climbing and 4 pitches of 5.9. The 5.9s definitely required some hard moves and a little patient sequencing. After being in direct sunlight on the last 4 pitches on a 85 degree day I was ready to call it and head down. I took a little slip on the final pitch that got my heart racing. I was relieved to make the summit and crack open a couple warm beers with @mattsonaction. We then repelled the route and spent the rest of the night drinking margaritas and celebrating our last night in EPC with good food and new friends. It was a damn good day! A huge thank you to Malcolm for leading this climb like a f-ing boss and to our new buddies for making me laugh until I cried at dinner! Such a perfect end to an epic adventure.

I’ve gotta give a shout out to one of my absolute favorite local ladies - Dana of @eve7swimwear. She is lovely to work with, she’s a bad ass surfer and last but not least she makes the best damn swimwear I’ve ever worn. She makes her suits by hand out of her shop in Oceanside and can custom design the suits or switch up the fabrics to fit your style and needs. She doesn’t pay me to make these shout outs btw - I just love her. And now that it’s almost summertime you should start thinking about hitting her up for a suit! Here’s a pic from a photoshoot I did with her in collaboration with @goldensolisairbrushtanning last summer. Go give these ladies a follow and support these small businesses! 🙌🏼

This is such a special memory to me. My first day climbing a multi-pitch & first time following a trad climb. (October 2017) I was nervous but so excited. Climbing makes me feel so connected and puts everything into perspective. There’s something really magical about being ON nature. Not just strolling through - but actually ON these rock formations or on the side of a mountain. Touching, feeling, observing the details up close. Add all of that to the incredible views you’re rewarded with at the top and it can’t be beat. Climbing has brought so much good to my life. Stay tuned for more climbing pictures so you can see what I’m up to when I’m not teaching yoga.

Gotta love long walks and good talks with my man. Figuring out life and planning our future adventures. Life’s not always easy but I’m happy to have a partnership where we always make the best of any situation that’s thrown our way. I can’t believe that it’s been over a year since we fell for each other. It’s been a beautiful ride and we’ve still got so much to explore. I love you, Malcolm. Here’s to many more days like this one! 😘
