"'Agency' is the technical term for the feeling of being in charge of your life: knowing where you stand, knowing that you have a say in what happens to you, knowing that you have some ability to shape your circumstances."
—Bessel A. Van Der Kolk, Author of 'The Body Keeps the Score'
Hi! I'm Kat. I help people cultivate a sense of agency in their bodies and show up more fully in their lives.
​​​
I live and work in Portland, Oregon, where I see clients for 1-on-1 work in my Rolfing® practice, lead weekly yoga classes, and teach workshops.
​
In 2024 I saw a need to expand my offerings to make them accessible to folks beyond my region, and now offer online courses as well as virtual "office hours" for anyone working with my digital offerings. ​​
Experience bodywork that gets at the root cause of your discomfort.
Rolfing® is a form of manual therapy that helps you get out of pain and get back to life. As a Certified Rolfer®, Kat's approach to bodywork focuses on relationships between myofascial and skeletal structures as well as the body's nervous system to get at the root cause of discomfort and improve your ability to move with ease, find support in gravity, adapt to changing demands, and experience greater freedom in your body.
Explore yoga through a fun, functional, accessible, and inclusive lens.
​
As a certified yoga instructor, Kat brings a trauma-informed approach to her yoga teaching. Sourcing from more than 1,000 collective hours of functional anatomy training, and 600 hours of education related to holding space and guiding others in embodied movement, Kat offers public and private yoga instruction designed to deepen your practice both on and off the mat.
Learn new skills for supporting your body as you navigate life.​
​​​
Explore one of Kat's movement, self-massage, or embodied anatomy courses to learn more about your body and its unique needs. Practice the art of sensing your body and its movement patterns, supporting yourself with nourishing practices, and connecting back to your own sense of embodied agency. Kat offers monthly "office hours" for anyone enrolled in her online courses, and a low monthly cost to access this transformative work.
