A little about me

My name is Katrina and I am a Canadian Yoga Alliance Registered Yoga Teacher in addition to being an elementary school teacher and rock climber!

​

I started practicing yoga in 2015 for a rather trivial reason: I wanted to be able to touch my toes. I ended up being introduced to the many wisdom teachings of yoga, which have guided me to a place of acceptance and connection with my body on a physical, emotional and, to my surprise, spiritual level. 

​

I completed my 200 hour yoga teacher training in 2021 with Amrita Living Yoga under the sun and under guidance of Tiina Kivinin and Ally Boothroyd. They, along with my fellow trainees now dear friends, have inspired me to truly engage with yoga as a way of life and continue to deepen my learning moving forward.

 

I began my teaching journey by offering weekly yoga sessions to my colleagues on a pro-bono basis. I am excited to now also be offering classing in the wider community and in collaboration with some local organizations and businesses. 

I strongly believe that yoga is for all bodies and design my classes to have multiple entry points and options. My aim is to hold a space of compassionate non-judgement where we can explore the wisdom teachings of yoga while also nourishing the physical body through invitations to relax, stretch, and strengthen, all while having a little fun, lila!
