Kathryn and Jules first met when Jules appeared as a guest on Kathryn’s Mindful Strength Podcast where they shared an immediate respect for each other’s work. While Kathryn focuses more on the strength training aspects of mindful movement practices, Jules empowers yoga teachers with education that challenges the conventional yoga script. They share many of the same philosophies while maintaining their individual voices. Together these two women deliver a powerful course for students and teachers of yoga and other movement practices.

Recommended Education Path

While each online course stands on its own and has no pre-requisite, you may consider the following information to get the most out of your experience. If you have not yet take my foundational courses Yoga Biomechanics and Asana and Beyond Yoga Alignment, they will lay a foundation and help you get the most out of all my other work.

Building on your foundational training, my Resistance Stretching and Mobility-Based Conditioning courses will explore and teach specific methods of working with and improving range of motion.

In my years of working with teachers, recurring themes emerge which result in specialty courses. Like this course, my other specialty course Hypermobility and Yoga dives deeply into specific areas giving teachers a rich toolset and understanding to support their students.
