MEET THE TEAM

I have practiced yoga for 6 years.

Some things I love most about teaching are: 

helping others realize their own capabilities. 

Watching students work hard in their practice and grow, and find a personal love for yoga. 

Teaching has helped me to love others more authentically.

Yoga has helped me to have a healthy outlet. 

I have better control with how I react to the world around me. 

I’ve become more of my authentic self. 

Yoga has helped to me gain strength and confidence 

I began practicing yoga 10 years ago.  I knew from the first few yoga classes I took that I wanted to teach it one day but it took a while for me to get to a place of being ready to do so.  Yoga has helped me to find myself and know that no matter what life throws at me, I can always beat it.  It’s helped me to find a place of grounding and presentness that I can always carry with me.  I love sharing these transformational benefits with my students and seeing them grow into who they truly are through the yoga practice.

I’ve practiced yoga since early 2023.

What I love most about teaching at Shanti is the magic of the individual practice in a

collective setting, the feeling of being in flow with others, and the ability to provide the

support and guidance to students that I am so lucky to receive from my teacher.

​

While the asana practice has helped me gain strength, confidence, dedication, and

resilience, yoga philosophy has helped me see that the transformation yoga brings is

also deeper than the physical. Yoga has given me a practice that helps me progress towards inner peace. 

I love teaching yoga because I get to share the joy yoga brings me, to others. Yoga has taught me to trust myself, take chances, and never give up. To work hard and push myself, but to also remain soft and surrender when the body and mind call for it. Yoga has brought balance to my life, navigating between effort and ease. 

Yoga has helped me stay present, calm and mindful no matter what life throws my way. It has also helped me gain flexibility and strength, physically but also mentally. I am so grateful for the yoga practice and thankful I get to share it with others!

Katie began practicing in 2020, and ever since has enjoyed the physical AND mental/emotional benefits of this holistic practice. She is a detail oriented instructor who believes in helping students reach their goals and supporting them as much as possible.
