Caitlin Harwood, RYT 200, CYT

Caitlin Harwood, Satyananda Yoga instructor at Atma Center

Caitlin took her first yoga class at the Atma Center in 2002.  Through the years and various roles in the Atma Center community, she has seen first-hand the ways that yoga can transform people. After witnessing this process in herself and those around her, Caitlin felt called to become an instructor and to help facilitate that transformation.

Caitlin came to yoga in order to find some balance in her work as a peace and social justice activist. She has offered workshops on consensus decision making and nonviolence and worked for many years with groups such as SOAWatch, Food Not Bombs, and Catholic Worker communities. In 2006, Caitlin spent a few months living in New Orleans helping to do post-Katrina recovery. 

In addition to spending the past few years working on Yogic Studies and Teacher Training, Caitlin is currently studying to be a birth doula. She attended the DONA International Birth Doula Workshop and has a passion for women's health and healing.  Caitlin has found that teaching yoga blends beautifully with the role of the doula in supporting women and their partners through the childbirth process. In teaching Satyananda Yoga, she hopes to empower all of her students to take on their life journeys with their heads, hearts, and hands in better alignment.
