Kripalu Inspired Yoga
 These special start-to-the-week and end-of-the-week yoga classes are inspired by the Kripalu yoga tradition and include the physical practice of yoga asana, breathing, relaxation and meditation. These classes integrate an emphasis on safe alignment in the teaching of the postures, with an encouragement to stay fully present in the body, practicing from a place of inquiry, exploration and play. In this practice the whole organism can become liberated to find its own natural movements and wisdom, and students can enjoy a deeper sense of wholeness and balance both on and off the yoga mat.

About Kate
 Kate has been practicing yoga since 1998, and started teaching in 2001 after completing the Integrative Yoga Therapy Teacher Training Program. Three years later she also became certified to teach prenatal yoga.
In her early years of teaching she taught at various locations including the NDG YMCA and different yoga studios in Montreal and the West Island. In 2005 she was inspired to open Ambaa Yoga Studio, and was co-director of Ambaa until 2009 when she decided to dedicate her time towards her yoga teaching and practice.
Kate has studied with many wonderful teachers over the years of her practice, including John Friend, Todd Norian, Rodney Yee, Seane Corne and Donna Farhi, these teachings and experiences widening and deepening her viewpoint of life and her understanding of yoga.
Over her years of practice, Kate has become an experienced teacher of all aspects of yoga including yoga asana, pranayama, meditation, energy anatomy and the underlying philosophies of yoga leading to a deeper and fuller understanding overall.
She also has studied extensively at the Institute of Natural Health Consultants which has allowed her to understand the human being in a truly holistic way, seeing beyond the body-mind to an experience of true self and wholeness. This is reflected in her teaching and overall approach.
Kate has been particularly attracted to the teachings of Krishnamurti, Ramesh Balsekar, and other teachers of the non-dual wisdom. These teachings have brought her on a journey of self enquiry and exploration which is reflected in her teaching and in her life both on and off the yoga mat. She is also continuously inspired and influenced by her yoga teacher, Clearlight Gerald and her homeopathy teacher and mentor Judyann Macnamara, who embody these practices and teachings.
She was inspired to teach yoga to children and to moms and babies early on in her career, and over the years has come to the understanding that the children are really teaching her. She continues to learn from them how to be fully present in the moment, to approach life from a place of curiosity and exploration and above all to have fun! Her passion for kids yoga naturally led her to become certified in prenatal yoga in 2004.
Over the years Kate has witnessed the benefits of yoga for women during this time in their lives through the practice of yoga, in their abilities to be deeply present and connected to a deeper wisdom within themselves and with their child through the experience of pregnancy, childbirth and parenting. She loves to be able to follow her students and their children on their yoga journey through pregnancy, mom and baby yoga and eventually toddlers and children’s yoga. She is director and principle teacher with Little Lotus Yoga for Kids, who run training programs for Kids Yoga Teachers and workshops and classes for kids of all ages.
Kate’s teaching approach is one that helps to bring her students into a place of observation and awareness of the movement of both body and mind in their practice, and into a deeper awareness of themselves. In her teaching of the postures the emphasis is on being fully present in the body and in themselves, bringing them into a state of inquiry, exploration and play, in which the whole organism can become liberated to find its own natural movements.
This practice can help to release tension and stress, and help to empower individuals to connect with their own strength and wisdom. In addition to asana practice, Kate’s teachings also include yogic breathing, chakra awareness, yoga philosophy and sharing and meditation.
Kate recently completed her studies at the Montreal Institute of Classical Homeopathy and is a practicing homeopath and member of the Association des Naturotherapeutes du Quebec.
