I began my teaching as a fitness instructor starting with high impact aerobics and moving towards lower impact like step and spinning and now, yoga. I began teaching yoga about 15 years ago and started with Yogafit as it offers a lot of flexibility. I was able to balance my training with a full time corporate job. I completed my 200 hour RYT in Spring of 2015, and what a celebratory moment that was!
I loved the journey through certification and learning about yoga philosophy in addition to the postures (Asanas). As I continue to deepen my understanding of yoga, I realize there is much to learn and apply off the mat. Yoga challenges me to balance effort with ease, and I find it helps in my other athletic pursuits of cycling and swimming.
I tried my first paddle board yoga class in 2015 - and loved how it brought a different feel to the yoga postures, including falling off the board! I became certified in SUP Yoga in 2020 and hope to find a place to lead some classes.
Kathy will be teaching Saturday mornings at her home studio and online via Silverheart Yoga & Pilates on demand site.
