Trainings shaped by technique.
Choose the format that meets you where you are. Every training is rooted in the same philosophy — slow, anatomy-aware, and built to last in your hands and your business.
Small Group Class
An intimate workshop for up to 6.
Comprehensive theory, hands-on practice, ergonomics, and real-time Q&A in a small-group setting. The most accessible entry into Kim's teaching.
Facial Flow
Anti-gravity techniques inspired by Kobido.
Dance-like hand movements that increase blood flow and sculpt the neck, jawline, and cheeks with rapid, medium-pressure work.
Facial Manipulation
Get to the root of facial asymmetry.
Release muscle immobility, tension, and pain to improve blood and lymphatic circulation. A highly effective approach to releasing sticky fascia.
Online Courses
Kim's techniques, on your time.
Self-paced video courses in development for estheticians who want depth without travel. Same anatomy-rooted approach, designed for digital learning.
Join the WaitlistLIVE EVENT
Catch Kim in the wild.
Kim takes the stage at the country's largest wellness convention to teach the techniques behind her practice. Kobido-inspired flow, sculptural lifting, and the small details that turn a service into a signature. Open to all licensed estheticians attending the show.

IN DEVELOPMENT
A massage oil shaped by thousands of hours of touch.
Kim's signature oil has been quietly in development for months — formulated with the glide, absorption, and ingredient integrity she's been searching for in every bottle on her own studio shelf. Crafted for estheticians who care about what their hands carry into a treatment.
Case study
Facial massage transformation.
This guest was experiencing a loss of facial volume and elasticity due to natural aging factors. I worked with this client for 3 weeks treating her once a week for 60 minutes. By using deep facial tissue massage paired with intraoral/buccal release I was able to relieve muscle tension and increase blood & lymph circulation to improve overall skin health.
