Katie Idell

She has been walking the path of building self-awareness and self-compassion since then. Katie teaches yoga with a gentle, restorative, and mindful approach, with the intention to let the body and mind slow down and find more stability, space, and ease. She assists students in bringing compassionate awareness to thoughts, feelings, and sensations that might arise when we slow down and make space. Katie also teaches mindfulness meditation classes, which focus on bringing awareness and grounding to the breath and body. Katie was certified as a vinyasa yoga teacher in 2011 at Yogawood in Collingswood, NJ, and trained as a restorative yoga teacher in 2011 through Wake Up Yoga in Philadelphia. Katie is also a psychotherapist, and she brings a trauma-informed lens to her teaching.
