A little something about me

Welcome to my little corner of the (yoga) world! I'm Katreine, and it’s really nice to meet you.

If you google (or ecosia, if you're more environmentally conscious) my name, you'll discover titles like MSc and PhD. Yes, I’m a doctor in Earth Sciences, and while I’m incredibly proud of those achievements, the title I hold most dear is “Mom” to a highly energetic toddler.

And as of the summer of 2024, I’m excited to add “Kids and Family Yoga Instructor” to that list.

My yoga journey

My own personal yoga journey began over more than a decade ago (wow writing that makes me sound old…). To be honest it was more out of necessity than interest at the time.

had always preferred more intense workouts and the “esotheric yoga” classes at my gym just didn’t appeal to me. That is until a knee injury forced me to take it more slowly. So rather reluctantly, I decided to give them a try and was lucky enough to really vibe with the teacher and soon I became a regular. Turns out, holding stretches can be a challenging workout.

After moving, it was difficult for me to find a class I enjoyed and so I figured I might as well get a certification so I could just train at home, without having an intention of actually teaching. The timing was weirdly perfect, because shortly after completing my teacher training, the pandemic hit. Now my simple at home practice became a way of connecting with friends and co-workers, despite the rudimentary set-up of just a laptop and teams

However, it wasn’t untill I becamse a mom that yoga became a way to find some calm amid the chaos of well… everything. It also helped me bound with my baby as we could practice together (both in the carrier as during tummy time).

Inspired by the transformative effects of yoga on my family life, I pursued certification as a Kids and Family Yoga Instructor in 2024. My goal is to share the joy, mindfulness, and connection that yoga brings with other families. Whether it's through playful poses, calming breathing exercises, or moments of stillness, I aim to create a space where families can bond and thrive together.

Each class is designed to be accessible, fun, and meaningful for every member of the family—from the tiniest tots to the most seasoned adults. My approach blends storytelling, games, and creative activities, ensuring that everyone leaves the mat with a smile and a sense of peace.

Yoga has been an unexpected journey for me, that I’m excited to share. Let’s explore this path together, creating moments of joy, connection, and well-being for you and your family.
