Ashtanga Yoga in Ipswich

I'm Katharine teaching Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga in Ipswich and around...The dynamic practice of Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga uncurls on the mat as a moving meditation allowing you the time to just be with the breath in a totally absorbing way and for the mind to calm of the everyday chatter. For me this is the most cohesive and powerful form of yoga, not just on a physical level but the way that it transpires into the everyday.

I am influenced and dedicated to my teachers John & Lucy Scott who have taught me Ashtanga Yoga in it's pure form, with the correct method and count, as learnt from their Guru Sri K Pattabhi Jois (Guruji).

I have completed John & Lucy's 200 hour Teacher Training Course recognised by Yoga Alliance, and am therefore qualified to teach Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga. In addition to this I have spent a month in Mysore in 2008, the home of Ashtanga studying under the guidance of Sharath and Saraswati the teaching family of Guruji. Study with Sharath at Purple Valley in Goa 2009 and more recently with John Scott for a week again at Purple Valley. I have worked with Manju Jois and also completed David Swensons 40 hour Teacher Training programme. I have a dedicated daily self practice, Ashtanga is all I practice so therefore it is not diluted by other styles. I see my teacher in the UK on a weekly basis for the development of my own practice and attend workshops and on-going teacher training regularly.

I teach with enthusiasm and devotion for the practice and love to see the blossoming of yoga practitioners on the mat!

I completed a PGCE with the Institute of Education in London in 1999 and am CRB checked and fully insured to work with adults and children. I also completed Sivananda Teacher Training in 2004.
