“Hi, I’m Kathy! Learning and teaching yoga has transformed my life completely. I came to yoga when I felt completely lost. I trained my whole life to be a professional ballet/contemporary dancer, but the dance world broke me. I didn’t love my job, I beat myself down, and I felt utterly lost. I took a leap. I left everything behind, stopped training for the first time in years and moved back into my parents house not knowing what I would do with my life. At the time, my mom was a big yogi and dragged me out to a yoga class.

The moment I walked through those doors, I felt relief.

I knew I was safe to move and breathe however my body needed- not how some ballet teacher thought it should. There was a community of people who wanted the best for me. I felt safe. I found strength in the movement, patience and raw vulnerability. I wanted to learn more. I craved it. So I got my teacher certification from Charleston Power Yoga, and I never looked back. Since then, I have studied a variety of yoga practices and taught with companies all over Charleston! I’ve been on my journey of sharing yoga with others to bring love and light back into their lives!

Let’s be clear, I am a strong believer that yoga is for everyone!! You don’t have to be in perfect shape, super flexible or completely able bodied. This is a practice that is more than just the movement, think of the poses as the cherry on top of your yogi experience.
