Kat is an exceptional yoga and breathwork instructor with deep expertise and rare intuition. I've been attending her classes for years, and she's helped me navigate life's ups and downs through movement and breath. Her guidance has been transformational, especially during some stressful times in my life. Yesterday, after a full busy week I attended her much needed Saturday AM breath class. It was a great way to segway into a nice weekend and prepre for my week ahead. She's truly one of Napa Valley's best. Highly recommend! read more

Kat is truly one of a kind. Her deep understanding of the body and holistic wellness makes her yoga and breathwork classes incredibly impactful.

Whether it's yoga or breathwork, every class with Kat leaves me feeling more balanced, energized, and connected. She creates a safe, welcoming space and genuinely cares about each person's healing journey.

Kat has been my yoga teacher for 2 years. Her studio has a very zen vibe to it and I always look forward to going there. The breath work we do can be calming or energizing depending on the intention. My practice has deepened in these 2 years. Along with breath work, the focus is on strength and balance. Kat is a dedicated teacher who meets you where you are. I can wholeheartedly recommend her! read more

I have been taking classes from Kat for many years. Like all yoga classes, there are poses that improve strength and flexibility. Her classes, though, are unique in that they have a focus on the breath. As a respiratory therapist with a specialty in physiology, I can attest to the power of the breath to do whatever you need at the time; relax, energize, increase lung capacity, and more. She is a wonderful teacher, kind and attentive. Her Yoga Studio is lovely. You ALWAYS feel better after Kat's classes! read more

I had taken taken yoga many years before I landed in my perfect place with Kat as my teacher. It was the first time I really understood the methods and reasons for different breathing techniques. Additionally, her instruction is simple yet very specific and she is incredible with individualizing for body types and injuries. The studio is magical and has special lighting etc. Treat yourself to a few sessions with Kat and you may discover your perfect yoga teacher. read more

Kat's Yoga Studio - Yoga Near Me

Kat exceeded expectations! Every time I'm in Napa I will be seeing Kat. She is a breath of fresh air, adjusts to your specific style of practice flawlessly and somehow manages to be the perfect balance of traditional and modern yoga. I had Kat come to a private residence I rented where 12 of us were staying. From beginners to intermediate, Kat challenged each and every one of us - even completely converting my one friend completely to yoga. Professional, courteous, simply lovely and full of happiness and light. Kat is as good as it gets when it comes to yoga! I only had the private session, but I imagine her group classes are equally as enjoyable. read more

I am also somewhat reluctant to give Kat well deserved rave reviews as I want her to myself. Because of Kat's patients, skills and thoughtful approach, I now know how to meditate effectively. I am now doing breath work with her and I find that her willingness to share what she is learning and has learned, makes for a very safe and accepting environment. I admire her willingness to give herself and her knowledge to those of us in the community. Thank you Kat! read more

Selfishly, I'm almost reluctant to review Kat's Yoga because I don't want the classes to fill up so much I can't get in! Kat is amazing and her classes are remarkable. I've done yoga over the years in a variety of settings, but recently injuries made me feel like I had to give up yoga. Then I heard about Kat's yoga classes and contacted her - she assured me I could do it and she would modify anything I needed. I had never done Yin or Restorative yoga before and I'm so glad I've found Kat and these yoga styles. After my first restorative yoga practice I was so peaceful I could barely drive home. Many of Kat's classes are in her beautiful home which is also very relaxing and peaceful. The classes are small and personal. Kat is very intuitive and seems to be right there to help you with a pose, or a prop or a modification, every time you need it before you even ask. The physical and mental benefits of practicing yoga are immense and I'm so thankful I've found Kat. read more

Amazing place to learn, restore and relax. Kat is a really good teacher who teaches , nurtures and helps you grow on your journey. The studio is very comfortable and peaceful. The class schedule provides many different options and works for different schedules. Highly recommended. read more

Kathy's Restorative Yoga class left me both relaxed and blissful. I had never attended a Restorative class before and it was amazing! Most certainly a mini vacation from the typical busy lifestyle I am used to. This is a gift you will be so happy you gave to yourself. I plan to go to the once a month classes and treat myself to the physical, emotional,and spiritual retreat I deserve. We have to keep our hearts full in order to give to others and what a perfect way to do it! Kathy is an inspirational and insightful teacher. She attends to each of her students individual needs in order to ensure they feel like each pose is comfortable and deeply relaxing. It was definitely like a little piece of heaven! read more

Kat's yoga class has become an integral part of my week. For me, it was an instantaneous realization that this was the right class for me. Kat truly believes in the spirit and core of Yoga, and everything we do is rooted in centering ourselves, and the "workout" is a nice byproduct. I've been practicing 2x weekly and I've seen a huge improvement in my physique and overall well-being. Kat brings a warm touch to all her classes, truly caring about every detail from the temperature to music to personal variations on poses. Her classes are slow-moving, non-aerobic, but leave you feeling refreshed and restored. I highly recommend her classes. read more

I found Kat on yelp and was I ever greatful! We had a family reunion In Napa the end of March 2016 in which I hired Kat to come to a home that we rented in the area. Kat was very easy to deal with via email booking the class, no hassles whatsoever. The morning of the class Kat promptly arrived at the house, we chose a spot, and she set us all seven of us up with mats, blocks and eye masks. Kat offered the perfect class for my family of first time yogis, as well as challenging me as a more advanced beginner. I wanted to share my passion for yoga with my family and Kat has inspired two of my family members to continue practicing yoga! I wish I lived in Napa and could practice with her more often. I will definatly book another session with her on our next visit from NY! read more

A group of 9 of us, in Napa for the Napa to Sonoma half marathon, practiced with Kat at her lovely back yard studio yesterday. Kat was fantastic. She designed the yoga to stretch us as runners and her quiet but informative style was wonderful. I highly recommend Kat's yoga studio in Napa. read more

I have gone to Kathy's classes at Health Quest, as well as her home studio. She has been so helpful and encouraging, particularly as I have been challenged with low back pain for 4 years now, and even though many of the poses helped me, some provoked pain, to the point where I almost gave up. I met with Kathy privately a few times, and too my amazement some of the poses helped the pain, and strengthened my core more than any physical therapy I have ever done! She is a great teacher, and guide, and helped me to intuitively feel my way deeper into the poses as well as modifications to poses I needed to adjust, and still keep the flow. She frequently draws your attention, to subtle shifts or awareness with the body and breath during the class.... so I felt nothing was ever the same, I was always learning, or deepening the poses... or finding something new. I think she is a very intuitive and compassion teacher, healer, and person. She is obviously deeply committed to her practice and to her students, has so much experience and knowledge, I would highly recommend her to anyone, beginners or advanced! Her home studio is beautiful, full of natural light and open to her gardens, candles always flickering. I think her classes are smaller in her home studio, so she can give more individual attention. She keeps her website active with frequent reminders of the times of her classes, and poetic and encouraging spiritual reflections of the practice, which I also found valuable. read more
