Testimonials

Kat has that “special something” that all of the best teachers have in common — the right mix of knowledge, enthusiasm and patience that brings out the best in you! Years ago, I reluctantly gave up Yoga for medical reasons, but Kat designed a custom routine for me that addressed my concerns and reawakened my passion after only one session. So exciting to find a bright spot in 2020!    – Connie Wolfman

Kathy is a wonderful Yoga instructor. Her clear directions and soothing voice guide me to a deep connection with my body and all those micromuscles. I get into a flow state and by the end I say, ” Is it over already?”, then I practically float out the door. She is a deeply knowledgable and truly gifted teacher…. one of the best I’ve ever had ( and I’ve been practicing since the 70’s!) I so appreciate Kathy’s gifts!”      -Vicki  Macdevitt

“I really enjoyed your class tonight and the emphasis on breathing; your home studio, and you, are warm and appealing. Thank you!”
Fondly, Joan Douma

“Mom I learned in class that if you always think about the past and the future and your not in the moment, you’ll be sad”

Comment after a kundalini and breath 2 hour special practice:  “I am thrilled I found you & had the opportunity to be part of the workshop yesterday. The sensation I noticed most after the workshop was that everything made sense! I mean everything was seen through extreme clarity and a great sense of Humility and peacefulness!”   – Nancy 

 “Kathy is amazing! She truly has a gift for teaching yoga. I have always worked out with weights but found as I was getting older the recovery time was taking longer along with aches harder to resolve. I had my first yoga class with Kathy and couldn’t believe the results. That pain between the shoulder blades, impossible to reach was gone. Thanks to Kathy I have learned to incorporate yoga as a crucial part of my weight routine. Her sweet caring nature and love for what she does inspires all who work with her.”

-Coy Williams

“The Sunday class at Exertec was the best class I have ever taken. I love love love it. I feel lighter, taller, stronger, and more relaxed for about 48 hours afterwards. I will definitely attend another class in the future.”

“Kathy’s style of teaching yoga is calm and relaxed.   Her gentle reminders on keeping the body aligned through the different asanas, concentrating on breath, and flowing through the practice, are a few of the  reasons I enjoy her so much as a teacher.  Her pleasant demeanor is always uplifting and positive, and her demonstration of the yoga poses seems effortless, but not ego-driven.  She is does not “push” her students, but rather supports us at our own levels.  She recognizes that we are all there for different reasons, include alleviation of chronic pain (as in my case).  I’ve taken yoga for years under the guidance of many teachers, and I am happy to recommend Kathy as teacher who recognizes the uniqueness in her students, and provides instruction that seems to reach everyone in class. Kathy is a teacher who “walks the talk,” and extends her knowledge in a wise and lovely manner.”

Your kindness and teaching have been so life changing and encouraging. I had a heart stent placed last year and was still very short of breath, so had a 2nd cardiac catheterization but no heart issue was found. From your breath work I learned to breathe deeply and realized that I’d been breathing shallowly for most of my life. Now I feel the difference and can send breath where it needs to be so my chest and heart aren’t constricted. I was on a statin drug this past year that made my muscles weak. From you I learned to tune into my body and breathe fully. I stopped the statin a month ago and am feeling stronger and more optimistic. I wouldn’t have had the courage to do that without your teaching. Ellen
