Joining a yoga class for the first time can be overwhelming.
In April 2014 I tried yoga for the first time. I remember feeling self-conscious and inadequate practising yoga with people with years of experience.
So I can relate when you hold back and feel nervous about signing up for yoga classes online.
I know how daunting and scary it is to step outside of our comfort zone. I've been there.
But also know how powerful yoga is as a practice and how transformational it can be for your wellbeing and life in general, so I wanted to create a program that left no one behind.
Introducing our 12-week yoga course for complete beginners
If you've been holding back from starting yoga because the practice feels overwhelming, then this course was made thinking of you.
I know it takes courage to step outside of your comfort zone, so I wanted to make this as easy and as safe for you as possible, by creating a space that is exclusively dedicated to complete beginners.
Yoga is as beautifully complex as human beings, so during these 12 weeks together, we'll start slowly, and gradually introduce you to the different yogic techniques, disciplines, and principles.
There is no rush and absolutely no judgment. As a yoga teacher, I'll meet you exactly where you are and provide you with multiple variants of the exercises to make sure you feel safe and the pace of the lessons is appropriate.

Student Love
I did the beginners course with Cat, and as a beginner it was important for me to understand more the movements so she was very helpful with the instructions and support. I gradually progressed from easy to more complex positions which made me feel good and confident. Her energy is very peaceful and she is very good at listening, if you have any questions she is always open to help you.

"I started taking Catarina's online yoga classes, which are great for me to practice yoga from home. Cat's classes are well suited for beginners such as myself, the pace of the class is well balanced with breathing exercises and a multitude of techniques that help relax the mind and the body. Catarina is a great communicator and brings a calm reassuring energy to each class. She also provides alternative ways of doing each yoga pose to ensure her students are safe and to meet each of their levels of experience. I strongly recommend such a lovely and knowledgeable teacher
