  • "I recently attended Aqua Yoga training with Katherine here in Austin TX. I have taken yoga classes but by no means consider my self to be an expert. I was really intimidated to take the training course especially when I learned several attendees were already teaching yoga. I took a deep breath and decided to go for it. The course was delivered in a precise and easy to follow along method. I encourage anyone who has an interest to take the course. I had a fun and extremely educational experience. I definitely will take Level 2 training!!!"

  • "“I highly recommend certification if you've ever thought about helping yourself while learning to help others on their journey of health and happiness. MAYA-MAKING AQUA YOGA ACCESSIBLE was taught and I know I  am now a firm believer in my journey and possibly helping some others along the way.  Well worth the time and money. Katherine's teaching style was so warm and welcoming. She was truly patient and informative. It was a wonderful opportunity that I hope will have a large ripple effect for many others to learn and share in this beautiful practice."
