Firefly movements
FireFly Movements Yoga and Fitness was formed to provide a place to address healthy lifestyle changes in a welcoming, accessible and fun environment. Kalimba, a 200hr Yoga Alliance certified instructor, teaches a combination of Hatha and Restoriative Yoga using the philosophy she learned from her yoga teacher, “Force equals resistance. Ease creates space.” Each class infuses the 8 Limbs of Yoga teachings and focuses on creating a long term, healthy, relationship with our bodies one movement at a time.

Strongman
Kalimba competed in numerous competitions before falling in love with Strongman events. The functional strength developed through training for Strongman competitions is easily transferred to her job as a firefighter, which makes it a win-win. Kalimba, who has earned the title of Twin Cities Strongest Woman, aspires to compete at the national level in the future.
