A Journey Of Movement, Yoga and Self Discovery

In the world of yoga and movement, there are teachers who not only guide but also inspire profound transformations within their students. Caterina, an international yoga teacher, movement specialist, and dance movement psychotherapist, is one such facilitator who brings a unique blend of wisdom and creativity to her classes.


A Nomadic Mover with a Passion for Yoga

Caterina's journey as a mover began at an early age, shaping her nomadic spirit. Over the years, she has accumulated a wealth of experience as a teacher and facilitator of movement, dance, yoga, and embodiment practices in diverse corners of the world, including Germany, New Zealand, England, Portugal, Italy, Greece, and Indonesia. With more than 18 years of experience, Caterina holds a 500 Hour Yoga Alliance certification, making her a seasoned yoga practitioner and instructor. Her life has been deeply intertwined with dance and movement, which she has passionately studied for the past two decades in various forms and capacities. Yoga, in particular, holds a special place in her heart and daily life.


Yoga as Healing and Harmony

Caterina's introduction to yoga occurred during her Bachelor's in Contemporary Dance. Yoga provided her with a healing balance to the rigorous dance training, offering a space to cultivate peace and harmony within both body and mind. The profound connection between the body and mind has been a central focus for Caterina, leading her to pursue studies in psychology and eventually earning her master's degree as a dance movement psychotherapist. What continues to inspire Caterina is the striking parallel between Western psychology and the ancient texts of yoga philosophy. This connection has fueled her curiosity endlessly, forging a deep and lasting bond between her two passions.



Living Yoga Beyond the Mat

Caterina's yoga journey is more than just a practice; it's a way of life that extends beyond the confines of a mat. It's a philosophy that permeates her daily life, influencing her choices, interactions, and approach to the world. Caterina's embodiment of yoga's principles serves as an inspiring example of how these ancient teachings can profoundly impact modern living.


A Fusion of Wisdom, Fun and Creativity

Caterina's classes are a testament to the rich tapestry of her diverse movement backgrounds. In her teachings, you'll find not only playful creativity but also a deep understanding of the physiology, anatomy, and emotions of the human body. Her education spans both India and the Western world, reflecting her commitment to staying connected to the roots of yoga's ancient body of wisdom and its living tradition. Her fun-loving nature creates an atmosphere where laughter and learning go hand in hand.


In her classes, Caterina strives to create a safe space where individuals can explore their bodies from the inside out, fostering a deep connection with themselves. She skillfully incorporates concepts from the Chakras and Elemental theories into her creatively sequenced classes, adding an extra layer of depth to the practice.


Unlocking Your Creative Potential

One of Caterina's core beliefs is in unlocking the creative capacity within every individual. She passionately supports her students in discovering their holistic and authentic selves, helping them remember how to play and celebrate their unique expressions. Her teachings promote a profound connection with the body, mind, heart, and soul, offering a journey of self-discovery and transformation.


Caterina's classes are an invitation to embark on a journey of movement, yoga, and self-discovery, where each step brings you closer to your most authentic self. If you're seeking a teacher who walks the talk, blends wisdom, creativity, and a deep understanding of the mind-body connection, Caterina is an inspiring guide on this path of exploration and growth.
