“A class with Catherine engages movement, strength, mobility, and mindfulness, exercising both body and mind.
With calm, steady conviction, Catherine guides a class through sequences that build awareness, resilience, and ease. Corrections that encourage one to move more confidently. The subtext is a quiet connection to the natural world, breath, gravity, and ground. Leaving you feeling clear, strong, and restored”
