Katie earned her RYT-200 from the Yoga Center of Columbia in 2022, where she trained in alignment-based yoga. She was first introduced to yoga when she was a child, occasionally attending classes with her mom, where they both discovered that yoga helped with managing Katie’s anxiety and panic attacks. She reinvigorated her yoga practice as an adult to complement her running habit, and has been practicing regularly since then for both the physical and mental benefits. Through life’s ups, downs, and everything in between, Katie’s yoga practice has supported her well-being and she is eager to share yoga with others. She loves the mix of science and philosophy found in yoga, and she believes yoga is for every body. When she’s not on her mat, she enjoys discovering new music, painting, hiking, and spending time with family and friends.
