A yoga session with Cathy was the perfect way to start off our joint Bachelor/Bachelorette weekend. She was so responsive, open, and easy going. On the day of, Cathy got to our Airbnb and set up a session for 13 perfectly on time. She adapted to everyone’s skill level and made everyone feel extremely comfortable. It was one of the highlights of our entire weekend! Thank you, Cathy, for being so kind and reminding us how important movement and connection is!

I would love to book a session with Cathy again – she was absolutely incredible and my entire group loved her. Everyone felt so at peace afterwards and wanted to do another session in the future. Don't look elsewhere, Cathy is the one to book with. Thank you Cathy!

We hired Cathy for a large work event where she led a class of 30 people. Cathy was so sweet and willing to work with us and tailored a session exactly to our needs. She is a "PRO" for a reason! The session was amazing and I can't recommend her enough!

How did you get started doing this type of work?
I stumbled upon my first Yoga session during my college years and soon realized that you don't have to be super bendy and flexible to start yoga! This was the beginning of my yoga journey, that eventually led to my desire to teach the benefits of yoga to others.
