Kathleen discovered yoga much like many of us do—through the trusted recommendation of a friend. What began as a simple suggestion quickly evolved into a lifelong path of self-realization, inquiry, and growth. For Kathleen, yoga is more than a physical practice; it is often the answer to questions of what, why, and how, offering clarity, connection, and presence both on and off the mat.

Her teaching is rooted in the Baptiste tradition and informed by a broad interdisciplinary background. Kathleen holds both 200- and 500-hour certifications in Anusara Yoga and has completed extensive anatomy studies with Leslie Kaminoff and Matt Giordano. Her practice and teaching are deeply influenced by Vinyasa, Somatic Movement, Yin, Hatha, Ashtanga, Rocket, Bikram, Prana Flow, and Yoga for Recovery, allowing her to skillfully meet students where they are while honoring the integrity of each modality.

Kathleen’s work extends well beyond the studio. She has led numerous yoga retreats, most recently in Nicaragua, and previously in Guatemala. Her commitment to service has taken her around the world, including teaching with the Africa Yoga Project in Kenya, supporting the Lemonaid Fund in Sierra Leone, and serving as a certified Yoga Activist in Washington, DC, where she taught weekly classes to survivors of torture and trauma seeking asylum in the United States.

In addition to teaching public classes and retreats, Kathleen has assisted and supported multiple teacher trainings and is frequently invited to teach and assist in trainings at her local studios—a role she takes great pride in. In her classes, students are encouraged to move mindfully into, out of, and through postures with intention, curiosity, and awareness, gently interrupting habitual patterns. Her teaching is a thoughtful blend of the traditions that have shaped her, offered with the hope that they will resonate, empower, and support each student’s unique journey.
