What to expect
My Thursday yoga to stretch, strengthen and stabilize class is taught with the assistance of blocks. I play music in the background and dim the lights to make. I guide students with verbal instructions and visual demonstrations. My Thursday evening classes are at a moderate pace, holding poses (asanas) and focusing on the breath to allow for deeper stretches and a chance to explore the asanas. I offer variations for asanas to ensure that all students are catered for while on the mat.

Getting there and setting up

• I recommend arriving at the venue 5-10 minutes before the start of class to give yourself plenty of time to set up and settle in.

• There are plenty of carparks available with the carpark accessible from Jimbour Street.

• Enter into the community hall through the gate and up the stairs.

• Spaces will be set up with blocks. Choose where you’d like to unroll your mat and set up for the evening. Feel free to get comfortable before class starts - taking a seated pose, some light stretches or lying down. Whatever you feel like doing.

• I honour your time so you can expect class to start and finish on time. If you’re running late - that’s totally fine. Just come one in, set up and join in on the practice when you’re ready.

About your teacher
Katie has been practicing yoga for 7 years, and has just started on her yoga teaching journey.

Inspired by the transformational effect yoga had on her while dealing with burn out, chronic fatigue and severe anxiety, Katie decided to pursue studies in the traditional, sacred and ancient practice of yoga. Her love affair with yoga was buoyed by the beautiful Adrienne Mishler and Kassandra Reinhardt.

Katie graduated her 350hr Hatha Yoga Teacher Training with Zama Yoga in 2021. She is a level 1 Teacher registered with Yoga Australia. Katie continues to deepen her understanding of yoga and is currently expanding her knowledge of Yin yoga (something she is incredibly passionate about) by completing her 100hr Yin Yoga Teacher Training with MyHealth Yoga, learning from the incredibly knowledgeable Carolina Vega.
