Katherine Twigg

Open Doors Yoga - Duxbury

Katherine is a certified Yoga Instructor, with a background in Human Services, Education, and Art. While completing her BFA, Katherine encountered yoga and found herself spiritually and philosophically connected. Since then, Katherine has pursued yoga from her hometown studios to the yoga shalas of Costa Rica, and many places in between.  Yoga has supported Katherine through the ups & downs of life, and it is a constant source of joy, and peace. It has led her to incredible teachers and mentors, and brought her on wonderful adventures. In 2015, Katherine traveled to Costa Rica for her 200 hour training, with Marianne Wells, a student of B.K.S. Iyengar. Later that year, Katherine moved to AmaTierra Retreat & Wellness Studio in Costa Rica to teach yoga & meditation in the mountains. While nestled in nature & Pura Vida, Katherine experienced healing and growth as a person and as a teacher. The owner taught Katherine many wonderful practices, including meditation techniques and how to play the crystal singing bowls; all of which she continues to use today. Since then, Katherine has completed a number of certifications and trainings: Reiki I & II with Linda Cleary, Kids Yoga Certification with Kim Taylor of Cardio Kids, Backcountry Yoga & Wilderness First Aid with Laura Loewey & SOLO Wilderness School, Trauma Informed Yoga through Unplug, among others. Katherine is so grateful for these experiences and the incredible teachers that influenced her practices and instruction style, and she is continuing the tradition of sharing what she has learned. Katherine’s classes are a culmination of practices that build strength and balance.  She guides her students to honor themselves by turning inward, exploring the body, breath, & the magic within. Beyond the Yoga studios, Katherine loves to be in the water, hiking, skiing, and exploring with her dog, Jaco. She is an avid traveler, and has been back to Costa Rica and AmaTierra many times. She spends a lot of her time teaching Art in various classrooms from the MFA to North River Arts, and creating in her own studio space in Scituate. Katherine has held many workshops offering diverse yoga and meditation practices ranging from Yoga Nidra, Kundalini, to Reiki infused Sound baths. She continues to offer specialty sessions that incorporate creating and deep diving within. Katherine welcomes all with warmth and excitement to co-create a beautiful practice that can be carried on and off the mat.
