In a beautiful, high-ceilinged studio, Trish guided us through a moving meditation that took me outside of time. Simple, direct cueing and loving hands-on adjustments gave me a powerful sense that my needs were known. After a practice that proved my own strength to me, a final shivasana brought peace and truth that I have carried with me off my mat.
Kate Yanke completed her 500 hour Vinyasa Flow teacher
training certification with YogaOne. She began her yoga practice in
2003 and hasn't looked back since! Kate has studied Power Yoga and
Vinyasa Flow through various teachers, but takes her greatest
influence and inspiration from Trish Washburn and Meg Galarza. With
a background in dance and competitive swimming, Kate finds herself
drawn to a strong, fluid, and dynamic practice on the mat. She is
passionate about the benefits of movement and breath for body,
mind, and spirit. She hopes to help her students find joy in their
own Yoga practice and to also take the time to find the joy in
their lives. Life is too short to not have fun living it! In
addition to loving yoga, Kate also loves to surf, stand-up paddle
board, cook and spend time with her husband, Scott, and
spoiled-rotten dog, Frank.
