What would it feel like to be at home in your own body and mind?

It’s possible, even when life is complicated.

Private sessions are your space to find strength, ease, and clarity. We work out what you need most right now, and build from there.

Some students come for more strength, flexibility, and ease. Others want relief from anxious thoughts, overwhelm, support with changes – and to find peace that lasts.

“Within weeks, I felt a real shift. I was calmer, less caught in my thoughts, and able to handle daily challenges without reacting the way I used to. My sleep improved, and even saw improvements in my blood pressure.”

“Despite peri-menopause and repeated injuries, Catherine helped me rebuild a safe, stable practice. Her anatomical knowledge and subtle cuing changed everything. I’m practicing safely again.”

“My sessions with Catherine have transformed my entire life. Her kind, genuine approach created a safe space for me during a vulnerable time. I’ve experienced easier breathing, better sleep, and feeling more grounded.”

“I came to Catherine new to yoga and quickly found her both highly experienced and very approachable.
Working 1:1 turned out to be one of my better decisions. She helped me understand the practice more deeply — especially the breathing — and adapted everything around a bad knee, strengthening the joint along the way.
She has a way of encouraging you to improve, gently but firmly, without pushing too far. I’ve become stronger, more mobile, and much more confident in my practice.”

Hi, I’m Catherine

I was introduced to meditation early in life, exploring Transcendental Meditation, Vipassana, Buddhist practices, and other meditation and mindfulness techniques. From the start, I felt a deep connection to the mystical and spiritual path.

In 1996, I discovered Ashtanga Yoga — a practice that has been part of my life ever since. I immersed myself in asana, yoga philosophy, and pranayama, and soon began teaching in Zurich for my teacher.

Back then, yoga knowledge wasn’t packaged into teacher trainings as it is today. Instead, I gathered knowledge piece by piece, from many teachers from many different sources and people.

My first journey to Mysore in 2005 was a life-changing year. I had the privilege of studying with Sri K. Pattabhi Jois† and Sharath Jois†, and I returned year after year to continue learning and deepening my practice. It was in Mysore that I also met my husband, and in 2007 I moved to London to be with him. A few years later, I opened my own yoga studio until the pandemic brought it to a close.

My curiosity for learning kept expanding. In 2013, I began my studies in Yoga Therapy with Yoga Campus, becoming a recognised therapist (CNHC, C-IAYT). Later, I completed my Master’s degree in ‘The Traditions of Yoga and Meditation’ at SOAS, University of London, diving into the philosophies of Jainism, Buddhism, Hinduism, and Daoism.

My background also includes extensive training in anatomy, mindfulness, and meditation, which I integrate into my teaching and therapeutic work.
