Born in Vietnam, Ky Ha has lived in Houston, Texas since the age of three. Growing up, Ky suffered numerous car accidents and as a result incurred chronic ailments throughout his body. He took his first Bikram Yoga class in July 2003 at the request of a friend and found something that truly changed his life.
"I hated going to class so much in the beginning. I was so weak and inflexible, I couldn't even touch my toes." Through sweat and determination, Ky has practiced yoga every day since then and has made a transformation of his mind, body and soul.
Ky graduated from Bikram Yoga teacher training in the summer of 2004 and has gone on to compete in the International Yoga Asana Championships in 2005, 2006 (bronze medal) and 2007, when he won the U.S. and International gold medals. Ky currently teaches and practice in Houston.
