Hello!! My name is Katie, and my core values are Communication, Compassion, and Family.

I was always active growing up in Virginia, playing soccer in high school and college, and even took Yoga as an elective my sophomore year. I was a bartender all through college, graduating with a BA in History and eventually starting a job working Proposals at a large government contracting firm. My job moved me out to San Diego, where I fell in love with the beach, the chill vibes and met my husband Tom. We eventually ended up living in Leucadia, and where yoga is everywhere! I took classes at a bunch of different studios with a lot of different teachers, and this helped me really connect to my practice, and to myself in the process. I participated in a yoga-for-trade program at a corporate studio, and even took a 25-hour SUP YTT with The Floating Yogis. I really wanted to take a 200-hour YTT program, but could never find one that fit into my schedule.

A few years, another baby, a LOT of work, and a pandemic later, I was ready for something new. I took to social media. I found Nichole and The Traveling Yoga Studio on Instagram, started taking classes, and fell in love with Nichole, the studio and the teachers. Everything just fit, and when I found out that she was offering a teacher training, I knew I had to do it. I graduated from YTT in December of 2020, and not only did I feel amazing connections with the other humans in my training, but also I felt an amazing connection with myself.

I loved my training so much that I am currently taking my 300-hour YTT with Nichole at The Traveling Yoga Studio, and I am learning SO much! Not only about yoga but also about myself!

We recently moved to Surf City, NC (back to the East Coast!) and we love it here! I’m looking for more places to do in-person yoga, and more people to connect with here! Join me for a virtual class!

I am so full of gratitude for all of the good that yoga has brought into my life, which is why I decided to become a yoga teacher. I love guiding others through the physical Asana as well as the breathwork! I can’t wait to connect and share my joy with all of you!

In addition to my classes at The Traveling Yoga Studio, I’m super excited to now offer private and group in person and Zoom classes for my friends near and far!

Your first session with me is FREE and will include an introduction to breath work and a mini-flow customized to your needs...these one-on-one sessions can be held in person or via Zoom!
