Catherine Shaddix began her intertwined studies of hatha yoga and Buddhist meditation and philosophy in 1990, and has devoted her life to the exploration of each of these since. She began studying traditional Ashtanga yoga in 1993, and has since studied intensively with Chuck Miller and Maty Ezraty, and her main teacher in America, Richard Freeman. She travels annually to study with Sri K. Pattabhi Jois, his daughter Saraswati, and his grandson Sharath in Mysore, South India. Her appreciation of the life-transforming practice of Ashtanga led her to create a yoga program for people with chronic and terminal illness for the BodyMind Restoration Retreats in Ithaca, NY, which she directed for 8 years.
