Testimonials

  • Nowadays, becoming a Yoga Teacher is a "trend", and you can find many trainings that will give you that experience, but deciding to study with Kathy is a differentiation from this due to the quality of her teachings, and above all, personal down to earth demeanor. Training with her is a guarantee of self-knowledge and self-development. Its method is original, the theoretical part is presented in a fun way and the practical part invites you to know yoga from the particularity of each person. Kathy is not interested in training yoga "teachers", she is interested in her students finding in yoga a tool for self-knowledge.

  • For those of us who come from other Yin Yoga Trainings, I found this functional approach to Yin Yoga totally refreshing while aligned with her teacher Paul Grilley, and in which we could review all his firsthand teachings such as “the Sutras and the Dances of the Grilleys" in the practice of Yin. From this training among the many things learn, I will hold dear the Yin Yoga practices based on her original MANDALASANA (poses cheat sheet) and with his super interesting rebound poses curated by Kathy Paez.

    Carmen de la Rosa, Spain. 35h YYTT student

  • Despite having had 750 hours of YTT, I decided to start another yoga training where I could delve deeper into Yin Yoga and anatomy. To my happiness I met Kathy. A Yoga teacher with a lot of experience: especially in yin yoga, philosophy, anatomy, and chakra meditation. Her way of teaching makes one want to continuously study with her. She turns complex subjects into easy digestible material with her lighthearted and great humor whilst providing great cheat sheets that help you retain the information. Each of her classes has something to teach you. Even after completing her trainings, she is also always accessible to help answer questions or give ideas. This is rare to find in teachers today. I am super grateful for taking my Yin Yang Yoga teacher trainings with her and recommend them 100%.
