PHYSICAL THERAPY
As a Physical Therapist of 20+ years, Katey has an aptitude for
listening to her clients, working with each client to understand
their unique challenges, and supporting them in healing. To
support this healing Katey uses hands-on manual techniques, well
thought out home programs and exercises that become each patient’s
toolbox for self-care, and education that gives patients the skills
to continue to heal themselves between sessions and beyond.
YOGA THERAPY
As a Yoga Therapist Katey recognizes that there are many paths
to healing and the benefits of addressing all levels of the
individual. During Yoga Therapy sessions Katey guides clients
in observing not only the sensations of the physical body, but also
the energy of the breath, and patterns of the thoughts and emotions
that may be influencing the challenges that they may be
presenting. Based on clients observations that unfold Katey
offers Yogic techniques to promote balance, healing, and an
increased sense of ease in mind, body, and spirit.
YOGA
As a Yoga teacher Katey teaches a spectrum of Yoga classes from
mindfulness, Yin, and therapeutic yoga to vigorous flow yoga.
In every class, Katey strives to provide an environment where all
students feel supported. Katey uses her in-depth knowledge of
the physical body to observe student’s individual needs and keep
them safe while finding a balance between offering instruction, and
allowing students to feel and explore the postures on their
own. As a result of this guidance and support, Katey’s
intention is to enable students the opportunity to experience the
many benefits of yoga at all levels of their being. Katey is the
founder and lead teacher of Tula Institute of Yoga and is a Yoga
Alliance Continuing Education Provider (YACEP).
