About Kathryn
Kathryn is a yoga teacher, turned powerlifter, turned strength and conditioning coach who runs a small countryside gym as well as global online programs. Kathryn’s specialty is applying ultra-progressive, step-by-step approaches to lifting weights, starting cardio, running, and training for big goals in smaller chunks.
She coaches clients from their 20’s to 80’s and has helped complete beginners progress to lifting heavy weights, building the strength to not only feel less fragile, but live life to the fullest. Kathryn’s coaching has been strongly influenced by her own experience as a competitive lifter, as well as her background in mindfulness and more recent education in pain science.
Her unconventional approach works incredibly well for clients who have felt judged or uneasy in fitness spaces in the past. Kathryn’s goal is to bring out the best in her students, whether it’s running their first mile, learning a pull-up, building bone density or summiting that epic mountain.
