What do you get when a girl grows up discovering yoga & motorcycles as powerful therapies ?
You get a great yoga teacher who considers the thunder of a v-twin engine one of her most healing mantras.  You get a professional educator, author, and therapist who uses yoga as a vehicle for herself and others to live and ride longer.  You get a goddess of Biker Yoga !

K. Lee Kappmeier founded YogaWell on the Himalayan tradition of yoga and meditation. After years of experience and education in the Holistic Health field (and on her Harley).  Her expertize and leadership in the industry led her to the design of programs for hosptials, directing yoga teachers/therapists certification programs, presenting at international conventions & rallies, as well as writing and video work.

K. Lee had many miles on her yoga mat and motorcycle.  She rode ironbutts and crosscountry trips on her Indian Scout. 

 



Like many of her students and patients, K. Lee began to practice yoga because of great physical discomfort.

K. Lee was born with a weak and crooked spine. Upon adolescence, her scoliosis worsened. She was a competitive athlete and didn't like the idea of braces and surgery but was willing to be disciplined physically, so she finally turned to yoga and began her life-long journey of healing and teaching. She was amazed by the benefits and became more content physically, mentally, and spiritually.

Her yoga education was always eclectic and in-depth. She learned and practiced many styles of yoga including: Ashtanga, Iyengar, Kundalini, Raja, and Shivananda.

K. Lee’s first trip to India was in 1987. By that time she had worked as a recreation therapist and taught preschool. Upon her return to the States, she went back to college and earned a double major in Physical Therapy and Psychology.

K. Lee culminated all her learning into her practice as a licensed Holistic Health Practitioner. Seeing clients and teaching yoga, she had the experience of working with diverse populations including those physically challenged in wheelchairs, terminally ill, accident victims, athletes, and pregnant couples.

She completed the Childbirth Educator Program at UCSD in 1991 and attended many births. In 2001 she started the Pre/postnatal Yoga program at SHARP Mary Birch Hospital.
