Natarajasana! The cosmic dancer… birth, life, death, hidden, revealed 🌌

It’s interesting (and an edge) recording myself, I usually don’t have a mirror or anything. Neat to see where I can improve (like lowering more in the 3rd variation here).

For so long, I’ve been like… listen … asana is fun & cool, but I was very much on the “yoga is so much more than postures” train 🚂 & focused more on philosophy and meditation (which is great!), but I was kinda bypassing the body 🥴 (ya, common pitfall)… and kinda ironic since I’ve been teaching & practicing the poses so long. But dang it’s just rough being in a body sometimes! Yet here we are… soooo as I’ve been trying to get more grounded, asana has been my #1 bae 🫶 I’m feeling a totally new passion for her. I’m continuously humbled and challenged and delighted. I’ve been loving it and hating it & am trying to strengthen my discipline & keep leveling up. It’s that whole cosmic dance spinnin round.

Anyway, we’ll be practicing these (with props 😙) all August @riffsyogastudios & @reunifyyoga 🧑‍🩰🪩

Humbled to be part of such a special community at Riffs Yoga Studio. During this week’s breathwork class, @katelliss brought in a #shrutibox and it was truly special getting to jam alongside her while she guided the room. Watching her seamlessly move from leading the breathwork to singing and playing harmonium created a powerful atmosphere that you could truly feel.

There’s something profound about how breathwork and yoga help quiet the noise of the daily grind. Just slowing down, breathing together, and sharing music in that space reminds me how simple practices can bring us back to center.

Thank you @riffsyogastudios for creating such a beautiful experience and for inviting me to add a little to the journey. Very special thanks to my comic bro and music partner @jerrywilliamusic #greatleadership #yoga #community 🎥 🤍@healinfeelinyogaa taken in La Jolla Cove by @katelllis

We are SO excited to share with our studio’s expansion, we are expanding our family and welcoming on new teachers!✨🙌

Meet @katelliss 💚

Deeply humbled by nature, music, and simple living, Kat draws inspiration from the rich lineages of yoga, the mysterious jungles of Peru, and her vibrant community. She considers herself an eternal student, seeking truth and harmony through yogic practice, artistic expression, and attuning to the rhythms of the natural world — our waters, our mountains, our winds, our forests, our people, our Spirit.

Born and raised on the East Coast, Kat pursued studies in psychology and art. After graduating, she embarked on a transformative journey across Southeast Asia, studying yoga in Ubud, Bali. Now finding her sanctuary on the West Coast in Ocean Beach, Kat is devoted to sharing the awakening powers of sound and yoga.

With over 600 hours of formal training, teaching since 2018, Kat continues to steep herself in the ancient roots of the yogic tradition, offering renderings relatable and practical for the present-day western human. She encourages challenging poses with an emphasis on alignment, breath, and heart-centered awareness.

Trained in sound healing, pranayama, mantra, meditation, yin, vinyasa, hatha, and Anusara, Kat brings a rich blend of flavors to her classes. She finds joy teaching asanas, believing they offer lessons in perseverance, surrender, and grace. For Kat, yoga includes, but also expands beyond postures — it is a path to unity within ourselves and the world around us. It’s a pause from the noise of modern life, inviting stillness, focus, and sensitivity to nature’s subtle language. Kat invites students to remember this oneness, guiding them in a ceremony of the heart.

Love all ॐ Serve all ॐ And dream extreme ॐ

i’ve now lived twenty-five years on this planet. somehow that number feels like i’ve passed through the gate from girl to woman

and so i’m learning something from the ancient redwoods who still stand despite the fires, with beautiful charred skin and hollow bodies

that with age come crazy stories and deep scars and unanswered questions. and that all things hold each other so perfectly

like the tree who hugged these two little humans inside her. like the three owls who guarded our campsite. like how we laughed at the elephant seals and fed the squirrels and played with pebbles in the sand

thank you 🌎🤍😋 taken in Big Sur by @katelllis

one side craves simplicity and peace, but my other side craves adventure and chaos. and so i end up the most excited by a piece of fruit or a really good cloud. the most torn up over the tiniest problems. the most tranquil in violent storms. the most clarity during the hardest things. it’s those inbetweens where feel like i’m crawling out of my skin. those spaces between the back and forth where i grow restless. and so i’m very grateful for the moments of stillness when i can just stare out over rooftops or into the eyes of an animal and that’s just all there is to do. taken in Barrio San Blas by @katelllis
