Kate Yanke

Instructor

Soleil Lune Yoga Center

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.
