Welcome
Hi thanks for taking the time to check out my website. Please let me know if and how I can be of service to you in/along your journey. Here’s a bit about me & mine: I hold almost a thousand hours in yoga alliance registered yoga teacher training certificates including 2 separate 300 hour trainings in India. I am based in but not limited to Los Angeles, California. I received my initial 200 hour YTT certificate from Yogi Manohari Das (Tamal Dodge) of Yoga Salt in 2016. In 2019 I received my first 300 hour yoga teacher training certificate in Rishikesh, Uttarakhand (India) from World Peace Yoga School (Vishnu Panigrahi & his lovely team of instructors) with focus in applied yoga therapy, vinyasa, hatha, yin, and ashtanga yoga as well as five separate 20 hour certifications in yin, sound healing, ayurveda, kirtan and restorative yoga. In 2023 I received my second 300 hour teacher training certificate in Mumbai, India at beautiful Radhanath Swami Maharaj’s Govardhan Eco Village where I learned from The Wisdom of the Sages very own Raghunath and Kaustuba Das & their incredible team focusing deeply on yoga philosophy and the Vedic traditions and culture.
A huge thank you to my students, teachers, colleagues, friends, and family for all of the support which helped shape me into who I am today. In short: I’m a very grateful soul.. so humbled by the honor to learn, teach and share the gift of yoga.

Testimonials
“I was truly the least physically flexible person I knew - and it was impacting my life in ways that I am only now able to understand. Assuming all experts were equal, I worked with whomever had availability. I had seen a number of them before meeting Catie Purcell and that’s when I learned that not all experts are the same. With Catie, I’m getting so much more out of our work together than I could have imagined. Quite literally, it’s been life changing. I feel so much younger - my back is like new and my posture is better. Not only has everyday life dramatically improved, but I’ve even started running in races again. Catie's expertise is surpassed only by her caring attitude. If I could have done one thing differently, it would be to have met Catie earlier.”

“Catie has been one of my favorite yoga instructors for 3 years. In December 2019 I put my Yoga practice on hold due to shoulder arm and neck challenges. I was unable to raise my left arm or move my left shoulder without severe pain, so I sought traditional help. I won’t bore you with details but the diagnosis was not great. I was offered the usual suspects of pain meds, steroid injections, etc. , of which I am not a fan. I reached out to Catie for insight, inspiration, and hope that there was an alternative way to approach my predicament. Catie offered me kind and thoughtful suggestions about stretching. After my first private session I was amazed. My body felt lighter, the mobility in my arm, shoulder, and neck were improved and more tolerable. Catie encouraged me to return to my yoga practice where she could guide me with small steps and easy movement. I did and responded well. My mobility was 75% better after three sessions. More movement, less pain, more hope! Rock on Catie! Much love and gratitude.”

“I have been a client of Catie Purcell’s for months now, and hopefully if she will have me I will be a client for life. I am in my 60’s, athletic, and have many “aches and pains” for years from old sports injuries. Once I found Catie, she went right to work. My old sports aggravated problems have been dissipating slowly but surely due to her skill, intuition, and guidance. All I can say is that my quality of life has improved and it is due to her. It’s that simple. She cares, listens, and has the instincts that drive her immeasurable skills. She will know more about your body in a very short time than you do, and believe me, it is a blessing. I could go on and on, but do yourself a favor and try her. To anyone reading this, she has measurably and permanently improved my quality of life. I have tried many mobility experts and no one compares. She seems to work with little to no effort, which is a quality of any true professional. Catie is not in the “who’s next “ business. She is a true healer and doesn’t treat you as though you were on an assembly line. I am sorry I did not know of her sooner. Contact her!!”
