About Me

Feel calmer, stronger, and more like yourself — one breath at a time.

Katja Patel is a yoga teacher and Ayurveda educator who helps busy women restore energy, reduce stress, and return to a sense of inner steadiness through simple, practical routines rooted in ancient wisdom.

Qualified as a yoga teacher since 2000, with in-depth training in anatomy, restorative yoga, and Ayurvedic health, Katja is known for creating spaces where students feel safe to slow down, reconnect, and rebuild trust in their bodies.

Her classes leave you feeling clearer, calmer, and more resilient — mentally and physically — while gently cultivating strength, stability, and nervous system ease.

Drawing from her own healing journey with scoliosis and colitis, Katja brings empathy, precision, and a truly holistic perspective to her teaching.

Whether you’re navigating burnout, sleep disruption, digestive issues, or emotional ups and downs, she offers grounded, down-to-earth guidance that fits into real life — not just an ideal one.

Katja’s Mission

To help busy women who feel overwhelmed and out of rhythm restore balance through Ayurveda and Yoga.

Stress, poor sleep, low energy, and struggles with food are not isolated problems — they are signs that daily rhythm has slipped out of sync.

Through simple Ayurvedic shifts and supportive Yoga practices, I guide women back to calm, confidence, and a way of living that moves in harmony with their body and the seasons.

Rooted in Tradition. Inspired by Teachers.

I’m deeply grateful to the teachers and mentors who have shaped my path, from my family, who continue to teach me daily, to Shree Guruji Shri Balaji Tambe at Atmasantulana Village, whose Ayurvedic wisdom has been a guiding light for decades. My training with Judith Hanson Lasater in anatomy, Restorative Yoga, and Pranayama has also been foundational. Their wisdom — and the lessons I continue to learn from my students — live on in every class I teach.
