“ Kathryn and Nikki's dedication and knowledge of their craft was obvious from day one of this Bodhi yoga teacher training.
From the quality of the course materials, to the good humoured, honest and inspirational generosity of their teaching, as they expertly guided us on our journey to realise our own potentials. I am truly grateful and would highly recommend. "

”As I sit here to document my experience ‘Bodhi yoga teacher training 2018’ I feel a little sad. We have entered our final month and in hindsight I thought I ‘couldn’t wait’ to get qualified, and finally, hopefully start to carve a career as a yoga teacher. But I can’t believe we are nearly done. I have made the most beautiful friends , met the most amazing people, all working, moving, sharing, learning, growing together. In the most beautiful space, (yoga loft truly is magic) guided and nurtured by fantastic teachers . Kathryn, Nikki, Charlie and Lorna, a perfect blend of the sharing of Yoga, pranayama, meditation, mantra, history, philosophy, anatomy and physiology. I thoroughly enjoyed EVERY single topic we covered, along with the snippets of ayurveda, pregnancy yoga, restorative yoga etc. All positive, I enjoyed every single weekend. However, that doesn’t mean it wasn’t a challenge at times , but the personal growth this course has given me both on and off my mat has been huge . Especially off my mat. I’m calmer, happier, healthier and everything is much clearer now. I decided to partake in teacher training because I knew I wanted to teach but I’d fully recommend the teacher training even if one was just looking to expand their practice and learn more. I knew it was with yogaloft I wanted to do my tt because I had already been practicing there for a while under Kathryn. Then I met Nikki,  and they will always be a very important part of my own practice going forward. I am extremely grateful for everyone I have met, everything I have learned and for the last 11 months on the Bodhi 200hr teacher training . So many thank you’s. “

“ I completed my 200 YTT with Kathryn & Nikki in 2019 and I have to say it was one of the best years of my life. I would have never imagined that the year I have spent with them and the whole yoga teacher training group is going to have such an impact on me as a person from physical, emotional, mental & spiritual level. Kathryn & Nikki are the best teachers I could have ever wished for. The whole course is super detailed, which is really going to help everyone understand all the asanas in such a depth. The whole course was perfectly structured and well rounded. Part of the training were also Philosophy classes and Anatomy, which brought everything into another level. Kathryn & Nikki are very passionate in what they do and that has been certainly projected into the whole training and how I feel after completing that.  I would recommend this Yoga Teacher Training to anyone whether you want to teach yoga or not. If you are passionate about yoga, this teacher training is going to transform your yoga journey and bring you to the next level of understanding what yoga is actually all about being seen from different angles. Not only will you have two amazing teachers with such an incredible knowledge and experience, but you will also gain another family who are your yogi peers in the training. I certainly did. “

I completed this course in 2019 and found it to be an amazing experience, I really loved it. Both Kathryn and Nikki are superb teachers with huge experience behind them and they share their knowledge in such a generous & enjoyable manner, while the course was demanding at times it was doubly rewarding. I always really looked forward to the training weekends and I found both Kathryn and Nikki to be very understanding and compassionate as this was also a time in which I had a lot of stress in my life. It was a 5***** experience and I’m so happy I didn’t let my age and previous injuries stop me from doing it”
Carol Daly Bodhi Yoga teacher Training

“ Having attended many of Kathryn and Nikkis classes for 5+ years I knew it was the only yoga teacher training programme that I wanted to do in Cork in ireland. The training was everything I expected and so much more. It was challenging, thought provoking and hard work but above all it was transformative on both a physical and mental/emotional level. It really was an amazing journey and the experience and knowledge that Kathryn and Nikki brought to table was boundless. Entering this training I thought yoga was just about the physical practice but the training opens your mind to so much more, the philosophy and lineage of yoga is fascinating and you leave hungry for more! And last but definitely not least the other 14 students were friendly, fun and supportive and many strong friendships were formed. ”
Jenny Young 200hrs Bodhi Yoga Teacher Training

“ I came to the Yoga Alliance 200hr teacher training course with a background in the fitness/sports business. Over the last 17 years I've trained with many sports bodies and wanted to learn more about yoga. I can honestly say this course has been the best one I've done! The knowledge of the trainers is outstanding, the love they have for Yoga is contagious and inspiring. All aspects of yoga is covered in detail and areas which I didn't expect to interest me became the ones I was most hungry to learn more about. There were times when it was challenging but there was always support from the trainers and other class members. I could not recommend this course more highly and I will continue to attend Kathryns and Nikki's classes/workshops to gain more knowledge. “

”Kathryn treats all her Yoga students as individuals, ensuring all participants get the most from every class or workshop they attend. I have always felt encouraged, safe and gently challenged by Kathryn’s engaging and supportive teaching style.”
Daniel O'Leary

“As a busy career woman and mummy to two small children, my yoga class is the ultimate in me-time! Outweighing the benefits of any other form of exercise, yoga provides me with the complete balance of mind-body health. There is no doubt that after my weekly session with Kathryn on a Wednesday night at Yogazone, I am full of energy and vitality on Thursdays and Fridays and I embrace those day in such a positive spirit. Everything in terms of mind and body just seem to ‘work’ better after a yoga practice”.
Ciara Staunton

"Kathryn's teaching style is accessible, encouraging and challenging. With a smile, she will coax your body into trying poses that you did not think you were capable of. Her classes involve a balance of meditation and physical challenges. Unlike other teachers, every one of Kathryn’s classes is unique, as she combines the traditional ashtanga sequence with a different focus every week, such as breathing techniques, mindfulness, or working on a particular part of the body. She makes sure that each student is given individual attention and is eager to answer any questions that you might have."
Nora Kowlowski

"I started yoga thinking this is way to keep fit, but what i got over the years is so much more. From attending Kathryn's class i have gained in my level of health and fitness, but also gained through yoga a way of acknowledging and accepting the challenges that life throws at us. It is the quality of practice that Kathryn gives in her class which guide you towards a deeper understanding of the wider benefits of yoga and how they can have a positive impact on your daily life."
Aine Kelly

" I've been attending Kathryn's classes and workshops for the past two years, during that time they have served as a constant haven of serenity and renewal during a time of great change in my personal life. Although my own schedule has become very busy, I continue to return toKathryn's classes at every available opportunity as it is a unique, sacred space that offers an inspiring and restorative experience of yoga. In Kathryn's workshops I really found a special spiritual aspect as well as that extra depth that I had been looking for in my practice. A chakra and ashtanga workshop was the first big step for me, and I was lucky to have had such a wonderful teacher to guide me, and for that I will always be grateful. I have no hesitation in recommending Kathryn to anyone who wants to deepen their knowledge and practice of yoga. "
