Certifications | Education
Katie received formal training in Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction at the University of California San Diego, and incorporates this practice into her therapeutic work. She began practicing yoga in 1989 when she stumbled into a class and found that afterwards she felt stronger, more flexible, and calmer. She has developed her own practice and draws her experience from Ashtanga, Anusara, Iyengar, Hatha, restorative, and heated power yoga.
