About
”Though we travel the world over to find beauty, we must carry it with us or we find it not.”

‣Techniques For Joy
I'm Kat, a yoga + breathwork teacher based in Atlanta, Georgia. A former nomad and a southern girl at heart, I'm drawn to the mysterious, inspired by the extraordinary, and grounded by the wisdom of the natural world. I believe nature is our greatest teacher. I've always been drawn to yoga's healing, non-competitive spirit and am passionate about helping people explore, connect with, and embrace every part of themselves.
My teaching is rooted in the belief that our connection to the world around us begins with our connection to ourselves. I believe the breath is one of the most powerful tools we have for cultivating awareness, resilience, and joy, and I design my classes to encourage self-discovery and curious self-inquiry - whether through intentional, functional movement or the quiet, reflective practices of yin yoga.
I am deeply inspired by life's polarities and mysteries, and believe that learning to embrace both can create profound opportunities for growth and transformation. My offerings are informed by Great Nature, my studies of Katonah Yoga and Vipassana meditation, and the wisdom traditions of Five Element Theory, Kundalini, and Kula yoga.
“It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us.”
