Hello, I’m Katie, your teacher at medikate yoga.

I've practised yoga for around 20 years to keep me calm, strong and better able to cope with life’s challenges. I'm passionate about sharing my knowledge and experience of yoga with other people who could benefit.

My sessions have a community feel and adults at all levels, including beginners, are welcome. My in-depth teacher training allows me to adapt postures to the needs of individuals, while offering a well-rounded, enjoyable class with a variety of challenges at an appropriate level.

Why not come along to one of my three weekly sessions and see if you like my style of teaching? Explore this website for details or contact me to find out more.

Hope to see you soon!
