The 2024 Course Programme

Kate Knowles loved her first yoga class in Liverpool with Jacqui Crescenti, which sparked the seed for further study, with Val McLeod and Janet Irlam on the Wirral. Their classes inspired Kate to undertake further training, qualifying as a British Wheel of Yoga teacher in 2007, having trained with Rosemary Bennett (www.bwy.org.uk).

In 2020 Kate was voted in as the British Wheel of Yoga representative for North Wales.

Kate aims to teach the type of yoga class that she would like to attend. Classes vary from one week to the next, some with an emphasis on dynamic, strength building movements, while other classes are more calming and meditative. There are different themes from week to week, so there is something to suit everyone regardless of their level of experience. Every class concludes with a relaxation to ensure students leave feeling calm, yet energised and ready to deal with the challenges of daily life.

Outside of yoga, Kate enjoys gardening, hiking, swimming, crochet, meeting friends, cinema and reading.

Kate’s First Aid training qualifications are always up to date.
