With over 30 years of experience, Kia Naddermier is the founder of Mysore Yoga Paris, a global community dedicated to an embodied, holistic approach to practice. Her teachings encompass Buddha Dharma, Yoga Philosophy, Aṣṭāṅga Yoga, Somatic Practice, Anatomy, Meditation, Kriyās, and Prāṇāyama. 

Drawing deeply from both Yogic and Buddhist traditions, she is the creator of Yoga Bhāvanā, a unique and integrative approach that strengthens every dimension of practice.

Weaving compassion and insight with clear embodied guidance, Yoga Bhāvanā illuminates the full spectrum of our experience – body, breath, heart, mind, and relationship – inviting practitioners into a transformative journey of becoming.

A devoted Dharma practitioner and certified Mindfulness Mentor, Kia teaches with authenticity, clarity, and generosity, making ancient practices alive and relevant in daily life as means for spiritual growth and inner healing. Her deep love and decades of dedication to all aspects of yoga continue to expand her teaching. Practitioners and teachers return year after year to benefit from the evolution of her ongoing research, study, and guidance. When not travelling, Kia lives in Paris with her husband Magnus and two daughters Uma & Devi.
