Kathryn D. Kathryn's love for yoga grew out of an introduction to the practice from her mom during her younger years of life. She was re-introduced to yoga during college and quickly discovered she wanted to share yoga with others.
In 2007 Kathryn traveled to India to study yoga at the Yoga Vidya Gurukul Ashram where she became certified to instruct. Upon returning to Michigan, Kathryn set up yoga programs, taught low-cost, donation-based, and free classes to bring yoga to those who might not be able to afford it, and rotated teaching positions at yoga studios in the Kalamazoo, MI area. Her primary practice is rooted in traditional Hatha yoga but she has practiced and experienced many different styles including: Ashtanga, Vinyasa, Bikram, Kundalini, and Yin. Kathryn and her partner relocated to Portland in the fall of 2008 where she has continued to study, practice, and share in yoga. In addition to instructing yoga, she works as a massage therapist and nutritionist. She feels blessed to love her work and to be able to help others through doing what she loves.
