Runner, yoga teacher (RYT200), Primary Teacher and Dietitian – Kat brings a warm, friendly and inclusive energy into everything she does. Noticing a huge improvement in her own running after her intensive teacher training period, Kat has been excitedly exploring how and why yoga benefits athletes. Her yoga classes are tailor-made for all ability levels to ensure you get a seriously unique experience. She will guide you into stretches that target areas of the body commonly used by runners, as well as introduce you to mindful breathing techniques to help you better access your oxygen. All sealed with some relaxing savasana meditation and her contagious smile!
