Katherine Collins, LMT, YTT 500
Connection. Purpose. Passion. Katherine lives to constantly bring those 3 key elements into her life every day. Her goal is to help others do the same. She started her career in the veterinary field and right away, felt a call to action. Witnessing the constant heart pull and strength that it takes to make an impact in that industry, she began to see that a true voice needed to be heard, not in just the veterinary industry, but everywhere that people pour their passion and purpose into their work.
As empowering and filling as that can be, if we don’t purposefully create balance for ourselves, our own drive can eat us alive and send us straight into losing connection with the most cherished parts of ourselves.
in 2014, Katherine found herself exactly there, burned out and unfulfilled. That’s when she found yoga. “The mat is what brought me back to myself”. The moment when she decided to step out of her babbling mind and into the feeling of her body, was when she bloomed. She is now a certified yoga teacher, with advanced credentials specializing in Kundalini, Ayurveda, moon cycles, and the Enneagram. She is a firm believer that nature is healing and that we are each our own healers.
Katherine is passionate about somatic therapy and understands that not all healing takes place between 4 walls talking to a professional. She is also a certified massage therapist, life coach, and Reiki practitioner. Her approach is multimodal, offering you the perfect combination to create the container for each person to build the life, skills, or attitude they are seeking.
Her favorite part of the job is having the ability to infiltrate each individual in a personalized way. Whether it is creating the perfect yoga/therapy session, healing the body through massage, or simply connecting with the right literature, Katherine revels in embodying the space that is needed to heal and grow. She strives to encourage others to live whole heartedly and to embrace the innate power this earth holds for each of us.
Katherine lives in her dream place, on the western slopes of Colorado with her partner, 3 dogs, cat, and horse. She is thrilled to have the privilege of traveling the states, helping people re-discover their passion and re-define what it feels like for our passion and purpose to infiltrate our work.
If she’s not traveling, or actually, even if she is, in her free time you can find her outside, horseback riding, hiking, searching for any live music or fun art, and, of course, loving on all the pups!
