Hi, I’m Katie

I’ve been a Licensed Massage Therapist since 2015 and a Yoga Instructor since 2019. I have a passion for anatomy, movement, and recovery.

 

Massage

Growing up an athlete as a competitive cheerleader, USTA tennis player, and female weight lifter, I’ve experienced my fair share of injury. Before my training as a Massage therapist I was regularly on the table’s of Physical Therapists, Acupuncturist, and Massage Therapists, grateful that I was able to work with such knowledgable people who helped my body return to optimal functionality. To this day I continue to live a very active lifestyle with minimal pain and maximal energy because of regular bodywork! After graduating from The Sarasota School of Massage Therapy in 2015, for the last 7 years I have had the honor of practicing massage.

I am currently based out of Richmond, Virginia. Some of my training and continuing education include, but are not limited to;

Acupressure/Meridian Therapy

Myofascial release

Cupping

Neuromuscular/Trigger Point Therapy

Thai on the Table

Reflexology

Yoga

My goal as a yoga teacher is to guide students through a journey of self-discovery by virtue of movement and breath. There is a special kind of release that happens in the abyss of a well deserved Svasana and I hope to usher practitioners there every time.

My personal practice began in a Bikram Studio the summer of 2013, immediately falling in love with the intensity and how grounded I felt during that 90 minutes. Later transitioning from hot to traditional Vinyasa, and finally finding Rocket. I specialize in Flexibility training , Rocket & Restorative, and Inversions.
