Catherine Hartshorn

Introduction: I'm an Austin-based yoga teacher with over 6+ years of teaching experience and 10+ years of personal practice experience. I received my year-long training in Mysore, India with Sharath Jois and am one of five Authorized Level 2 Ashtanga yoga teachers in Austin. I previously taught at the University of Virginia, at various studios in the Washington DC area, and in Bali, Indonesia where I lived for 5 years. I now teach private clients both in person and online to individuals, families, and corporate clients in the Austin area. I specialize in Ashtanga yoga, which combines gentle stretching, targeted postures, and controlled breathing to promote flexibility, circulation, and strength. Modifications and variations are available to accommodate different levels of practitioners, making it accessible for beginners and adaptable for experienced practitioners. Never tried Ashtanga yoga? No worries - being a beginner is the best place to start, regardless of your yoga background. My approach combines traditional teachings and personalized attention to empower clients on their wellness journey.
