Meet Katherine
Katherine is a yoga teacher and speech-language pathologist (SLP). She started practicing yoga in 2015, and was amazed by yoga’s ability to make her body and mind feel calm, strong, and grounded. She became a certified yoga teacher in 2020, and has participated in trainings in vinyasa, restorative, adaptive, and chair yoga and mindfulness meditation. She is also certified in LoveYourBrain Yoga, a research-based yoga and mindfulness program designed for people affected by brain injury. She believes that yoga and mindfulness can be powerful tools both on and off the mat (or chair!), and often integrates principles of yoga and mindfulness into her work as a speech-language pathologist.
Her calm, welcoming, inclusive approach to yoga combines movement and the breath to meet you where you are and promote wellness in the body and mind.

What do I need to practice yoga at home?
You will need: an internet connection and a device to view the practice (the bigger the screen, the better, but a smartphone will work too!). A chair (ideally without arms) for chair yoga. Yoga mats are encouraged – they are easy to find at affordable prices; otherwise you may use a nonslip rug. Yoga blocks (or books), a blanket or towel, and a bolster or pillow may be helpful props for your practice.

“Mindfulness is life-changing.
Laurie J. Cameron
It is a superpower that allows you to deliberately direct the beam of your attention instead of being tossed around by racing thoughts and turbulent emotions; to choose your mindset; and to shift how you relate to your experience, so that you have less stress and more joy.”
