About Kate Forest
   
Certified ~ Insured ~ Experienced ~ Reliable  
 
Kate Forest, RYT, is an Advanced Level Yoga Instructor and a Mindful Living Consultant. She is the originator of Self Care Yoga, a safe and effective healing style of yoga and a contributing author to the book Yoga in America in which she shares part of her journey as a student and teacher of yoga. Kate educates the whole person, helping him or her to manage stress and live a more healthy and balanced life.

“In my nine years of teaching yoga and mindfulness based stress reduction techniques I have taught thousands of yoga classes. For nearly six years I owned and operated a yoga center in my hometown of Wilbraham, MA. I now teach onsite yoga classes in gymnasiums, conference rooms, senior centers, and wellness centers, teaching to students of all ages and abilities.
My trainings and personal practice include yoga, meditation, non-violent communication, stress reduction, and self-care. I am a Registered Yoga Teacher with the Yoga Alliance as an RYT 500, with over one thousand hours of yoga teacher training. My teachings and personal practice have evolved into what I call Self Care Yoga, a healing style of yoga with emphasis on the mind, body, breath connection, and on bringing this connection into everyday life.
My intention as a yoga instructor is to share the benefits I have gained from my personal practice with others. In addition to the practice of yoga, I offer students mindful living techniques to practice outside of class, which help them to integrate self-care and mindful living into their busy lives. This benefits not only the students, but those around them as well.”


Kate's Philosophy
“I believe that a healthier, less stressed individual offers greater support and strength within their family, their organization, and their community. I also believe that living more mindfully, or consciously, can enhance the health of the whole person, including physically, mentally, and emotionally. These are the benefits that I receive from my practice of Self Care Yoga and Mindful Living, and these are the benefits that I share with students.”

What is RYT?
RYT stands for Registered Yoga Teacher. Kate is registered with the Yoga Alliance as an Advanced Level Yoga Instructor with over 1000 hours of Yoga Teacher Training and nine years of teaching experience.
