Testimonials
BIO
Katie McNamara started teaching yoga in 2015. First informed by a Hatha-Vinyasa teacher in Vermont, John McConnell was the source of positive growth in her practice and encouraged the training cohort to “first, see the good” in all students who show up to the practice. From this, she developed a way to connect with her students that felt beneficial and authentic.
Katie continued her yoga studies when she returned from the Peace Corps (Namibia) and looked to Ashtanga practitioners to become grounded in a routined practice. The Ashtanga self-practice was especially helpful during the pandemic, and Katie shared her love of the practice online with her community.
After completing 500 hours of training, she craved more knowledge of the yoga foundations and expanded her trainings in Yin, Rocket (Ashtanga-inspired power flow), as well as kids yoga.
Katie knows that meditation is not limited to stillness, and that yoga is a practice to enhance self-connection, community, and social change. Through movement, mindful practices, and gentle pauses she has learned there are ample ways to practice gratitude and reflection.
She is always continuing her yoga education, with over 1,000 hours in yoga training, she teaches all levels, ages, and abilities. Katie primarily practices Ashtanga-inspired vinyasa for the grounding effects of the routine movements and rhythmic breathing, however she knows the changing of the seasons and cyclical nature calls for time to practice rest and relaxation, as well as joy and playfulness.
Katie is currently teaching yoga in Southern Vermont. You can practice with her in-studio, or join her Oct 1-4 in Brattleboro for her 2026 retreat!
