Introduction: My name is Kate, and I consider myself to be a genuine, down to Earth, fun-loving yogi, with a passion for spirituality, metaphysics, holistic health, and wellness. I find joy in helping to relieve you of stress, pain, tension, or any other negative energetic blockages weighing you down. Being a naturally empathetic intuit allows me locate and give specialized attention to your problem areas, whether they be physical, emotional, or spiritual in nature. I have experience teaching yin yoga (Restorative poses are held for 1-5 minutes allowing for release and elongation of the tendons and ligaments while diving deeply inward in meditation as you receive reiki energy healing/adjustments) and gentle hatha (As opposed to vinyasa where you flow quickly through poses, hatha allows for ample time to hold the posture, focusing on breath, and proper alignment). My yoga sessions are usually (unless requested otherwise) therapy based rather than focusing on "exercise" (we get enough exercise from day to day, yet rarely do we get enough therapy), however with enough practice you will gain strength, muscle tone/definition, endurance, and flexibility. We will work on breathing techniques (pranayama) and guided meditation (such as Yoga Nidra for profound relaxation) leading to deeper insight and a spiritual connection. I like to incorporate reiki energy healing, (a method of reading your auric emotional/physical energy bodies directing the flow of prana by giving hands on or off adjustments), Thai massage (Assisted stretches and asanas, while using the body's meridians and channels to direct flow) and aromatherapy into my sessions.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Generally I work with my clients on a sliding scale based on what they can afford. Usually my rate is hourly starting at $50 per hour and goes up to $80 per hour, depending upon the services rendered, the distance traveled, and the specialized/individually designed routine/healing modality.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
If possible I prefer to speak on the phone (or via email) before our first session together in order to gather some background information about your previous personal experience, any physical limitations/injuries/disabilities, and current level of health and physicality. We'll also discuss your goals (long/short term), specific requests and expectations for our sessions, your personal motivation, personality type, meditation methods practiced, personal spiritual beliefs (Optional, in no way will I judge nor attempt to change your beliefs) and comfort level. With this information I will be able to design an individualized class tailored specifically to meet your needs. I am happy to listen to your thoughts, feedback, or critiques and to answer any questions ??Namaste
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have a Bachelors Degree of Science in Community Based Public Health/ Health Education. I received my 200 Hour RYT Yoga Teacher Training Certificate focusing on Gentle Hatha, Vinyasa, and Restorative Methods (Registered through the Yoga Alliance). Over the past 3 years in addition to the listed above, I have taught mommy/baby yoga, Yin yoga, Yoga Nidra meditation, Yoga for Runners, Self Massage techniques, Chakra Tuning/Balancing Workshops, Ayruvedic based yoga, and yoga-dance. I am a certified Reiki Master under the Usui lineage. I am a self taught crystal and aromatherapy healer.
