Kathleen Egan first connected with yoga as a teenager in Australia and has integrated yoga practices into her daily life, growing her personal practice and establishing herself as a Vinyasa (E-RYT200), Children’s (RCYT95) Yoga Teacher and Trauma Sensitive Yoga Facilitator (TCTSY-F) and YACEP.

Kathleen spent her early adulthood working with at-risk children and families where she saw the need for an alternative to traditional therapeutic methods and interventions.
