Kathi K.Teacher
Diversity is Kathis motto – having completed an impressive 950 hours of Yoga training in a total of 7 different styles. Kathi doesn't believe in "one size fits all" but rather in your authentic practice. Her mission is to creatively guide people to their own unique movement practice – to learn to feel and explore, and through subtle nuances, challenge what has remained hidden until now.
Kathi N.Teacher
Kathi is a dedicated yoga, breathwork, and fascia flossing practitioner and teacher, as well as a lifelong student. Her teachings combine Hatha and Vinyasa and are deeply inspired by Katonah Yoga® theory.
Her approach is functional, pragmatic, and undogmatic, guided by a universal metaphoric dialogue. She places great importance on precision and shares techniques that support the organs and enhance their functionality. She believes that in yoga nothing is static, and that measuring the body against archetypal forms helps dissolve patterns, habits, and inefficient technique.
In 2024 she launched her own yoga project, BODIES.TALK, which aims to help students recognize movement patterns and cultivate an awareness of how their practice can be used effectively and in harmony with the body.
