She believes that yoga is for everyone of all ages, shapes and sizes and that the essence and benefits of yoga can be accessed and felt by all. Although continually training and expanding her learning with teachers from India and around the globe, Catriona always comes back to the roots of classical Hatha yoga. Catriona has been teaching yoga since 2005 after becoming a hatha yoga teacher with the Saraswati Academy in India. With a corporate background in IT, Catriona made the move to full-time teaching in 2007.

She is currently working towards her two year Post Graduate Diploma in Yoga Therapy with ‘The Yoga Institute’. Catriona also curated a wellness area of a large music festival for four years running, which drew up to 15,000 people and was a huge success. It included everything wellness from yoga to sound healing, ecstatic dance, drumming, cultural activities and the healing arts. Catriona booked international teachers and musicians from around the world to be part of this multi-stage event. As well as working with her own private yoga clients, Catriona works therapeutically in drug and alcohol rehabilitation centres.
