Catherine Black Born – London, UK Birthday – October 28th Languages – English Growing up I played various of individual and team sports, and so yoga was introduced to me as a way to heal injuries and to rehabilitate my body. It did exactly this but it also made a huge imprint on my life. The more I practiced the more I found my breath, I found my mantra, my focus; and most importantly, I found my meditation. Through yoga, I found that asanas started to strengthen my body and I found that meditation started to heal my mind. I like to consider myself creative, having studied Textile Design and having worked as a freelance Artist in London for the design industry for several years (a stressful yet fulfilling time). So, I found that exercise and the exploration of my body were the only ways I could ease the stress of my 9-5 job. My creativity helped shape me and it continues to shape the way I work, the way I interact with people, and the way I pursue and follow my heart. I will never give it up. I now use yoga to aid me in living a more conscious and holistic lifestyle. I feel it is incredibly important to explore. Every day, every practise – I focus, I dedicate and I try to explore. I explore and create shapes and silhouettes artistically and it is through this art that then I have found that the healing and strengthening of my body and mind due to yoga continues to help create harmonisation and balance in my life and the world I live in. As a yoga teacher, my goal is to have students leave my classes refreshed and revived through intention, gratitude, meditation, pranayama, and asana. My classes vary: some are and fun and dynamic, others are more restful and restorative, yet both are always kind and inclusive. I bring a strong focus on breath awareness as well as a deep connection to the core. I always want to encourage and engage the mind into the body and thereby creating freedom of expression & energy. I have a deep fascination with the body, the way it works and ways in which we can all learn to treat it well. This fascination with well-being has led me to study nutrition and recognise the interconnection of body, mind and spirit - looking at the importance of treating the whole person rather than separate body parts, and thereby adopting a holistic approach to life.
