“Zen” has become a popular term in the west to describe states of joy, cleanliness, and tranquility. Everyone is familiar with the basic “Zen” principle that cultivating a mindful condition can lead to deep states of inner peace. Fewer are aware of the traditions and practices it takes to get there. Zen Buddhism is a sect of Buddhism that emphasizes real experience. Zen Buddhist monks seek to experience their true selves, free from cyclical habits and illusions.

Cat began practicing hatha yoga as a way to add a physical element to her meditation practice. She believes learning how to move throughout life while remaining relaxed and focused is a transformative practice anyone can use to cope with cultural pressures and personal struggles.

While maintaining a light atmosphere, Cat teaches in a simple and direct manner, giving students space to turn inwards, learn about themselves, and see their problems clearly. Students can expect respect and compassion, regardless of background or skill level. Cat is a Zen meditation practitioner and trains at Daiyuzenji Rinzai Zen Temple and received her 200 hour yoga training from the Chicago School of Yoga learning under David Duerkop.
