Kat Yates

Kat is an Experienced Registered Yoga Teacher (E-RYT 500) and a certified Katonah® Yoga teacher. Before settling down to teach full-time, she spent much of her adult life traveling, learning, and teaching around the world. She got her 30 HR Yin certification through Power Living in Australia, studied Thai Massage at the Sunshine Massage School in Thailand, and has done Vipassana Meditation courses in India, Thailand, and USA.

Drawing from a wide background of travel, movement, breathwork, and meditation, Kat aims to help people explore, connect to, and embrace every unique part of themselves. She believes that the breath is one of the most important tools we can use to master our lives and weaves breathwork seamlessly into her teachings.

Her classes are designed to spark mindfulness, self-awareness, and self-inquiry, whether through intentional, invigorating, and functional movement or through the quiet, reflective practices of yin yoga. You can often find threads of Vipassana Meditation, Kundalini yoga, and Five Element Theory infused into her offerings.
