Hi, I’m Kat,
I am an enthusiastic and holistic-minded yoga teacher and Reiki Master with over eleven-years experience & 1150-hours of yoga training. I teach public classes through-out Perth, Western Australia. Occasionally I’ll pop up at studio’s in other Australian states as well as Europe.
My teaching journey started in 2011 when I attended Bikram Yoga Teaching Training in Los Angeles a Hatha based set sequence in a heated room. Since then I have gone on to expand my training into Yin & Vinyasa yoga for my personal development as well as increasing my teaching offerings.
Having trained with some of Yin Yoga’s founder Paul Grilley’s most senior teachers, including Jo Phee & Sarah Powers. I weave knowledge of the physical body with my own experience of energy and healing into my yoga classes. Yoga is more than an exercise class; I believe firmly in yoga as a lifestyle and a deeply healing modality. The lessons we explore on the mat assist us to live a more connected and conscious life off the mat.
I’ve studied Advanced Yoga Psychology under senior teacher & licensed psychotherapist Ashley Turner. This course is assisting me to take yoga beyond the asana practice to a deeper level to understand on a psychological level why yoga heals.
I’m currently finishing my last module in the Yinspiration 300-hour certificate with Jo Phee in Yin Yoga.
Why choose me as your yoga teacher?
I aim to offer more than just a yoga class and create a space for a holistic healing experience. I weave my passions into my yoga classes; combining essential oils, sound healing, metaphysics, Traditional Chinese Medicine theories & Reiki. Every class has a different theme & sequenced to current energetic influences. Within the class, I tap into my intuitive guidance & share unique wisdom for the present moment.
In my Vinyasa alignment classes, I understand that everybody is different & we can adapt the yoga postures to suit our Western bodies. I focus on safety, control & above all fun. Classes are beginner-friendly moving at a steady pace offering corrections, adjustments & extra guidance as needed.
I’ll look forward to connecting with you all on the mat soon,
Kat.
