Katie Kasten shares her yoga journey:

“My introduction to yoga happened at 18, but love didn’t strike immediately. Insecurity and comparison held me back. It was years later, during my recovery from a spinal injury, that I fell head over heels for yoga’s healing power. Pair that with shaking your ass and yoga and I have been in a long-term commitment ever since.”

Get to Know Your YA Classes Teacher: Katie Kasten

We sat down with this powerhouse yoga and fitness teacher for a Q+A session so YA Classes members and YouAligned readers can learn more about her.
 

YA: What’s your favorite self-care practice you can’t live without?

Katie: My ultimate self-care practice involves getting outside with my three adorable dogs: Captain, Peaches, and Honey. We make it a ritual to soak up the sun’s rays during morning and evening and always play fetch! It’s a blend of some of my favorite things: nature, animals, and sunshine.

YA: What’s your go-to song or music genre when you teach (or practice)?

Katie: When I teach or practice, nothing gets me in the mood quite like EDM and Hip Hop. The beats make me want to shake what my mama gave me, and it’s infectious! Explicit only of course 😉
 

YA: What’s your favorite motivational quote?

Katie: “I don’t need loneliness, for I’m never truly alone. I don’t need greed, as I already possess everything. I don’t need doubt, because I already know.” – Ram Dass

These words from Ram Dass motivate me to be a better person, reminding me that the power to thrive lies within.
 

YA: What’s your favorite yoga pose? Least favorite?

Katie: Frog pose is my all-time favorite yoga pose. It connects me to my pelvic floor (which I often struggle to relax) and fills me with a sense of flexibility and strength. Back extensions, on the other hand, aren’t my cup of tea as I already have a tight low back. We all have our nemesis poses, right?
 

YA: Where’s your favorite place in the world you’ve ever been to, and why?

Katie: Costa Rica holds a special place in my heart. The vibrant music, delicious food, and laid-back culture make me feel like a goddess. It’s like a sexy, fun Latin paradise where happiness and relaxation reign.

YA: What’s your most embarrassing moment, either teaching or in life?

Katie: Who knows why this is coming to mind lol . . . but perhaps when I slipped and fell in front of my middle school crush? I had a grand plan to impress him with a dramatic hair-flowing-in-the-wind entrance, but instead, I ended up face-first on the ground.

Needless to say, my romantic movie moment turned into a humbling experience. Despite the mishap, it’s a reminder to embrace vulnerability and find humor in life’s awkward moments.
 

 
 

YA: What’s your #1 piece of advice for maintaining an empowered mindset?

Katie: The key to maintaining an empowered mindset is to let go of ego. By releasing the need for constant comparison or negative judgments, we create space for our true selves to flourish.

Authentic empowerment comes from connecting with our inner essence, allowing our genuine strengths and passions to guide us. When we silence the ego, we tap into confidence, resilience, and purpose.
