Kate Moats

Kate's fascination + journey with yoga began in 2010. In 2012, Kate completed her first 200-hour yoga teacher training and spent the first few years of teaching exploring the aspect of asana while using her own personal practice to play with the more subtle sensations of the spiritual side of the practice.

In 2015, she opened a yoga studio, Balanced Planet Yoga in Marlton, NJ. At this point Kate felt called to step up as a leader + teach far beyond the movements on the mat, which quickly led to a plethora of continued education within this career.

In 2016, Kate was diagnosed with thyroid cancer which brought her physical practice to a rapid halt as she spent roughly 3 years recovering. In that time Kate was unknowingly blessed with the inability for movement which became a catalyst for who she is today, what she teaches, + how she teaches it. Kate firmly believes that yoga can be found in all things, all conversations, and all of life's experiences. Because of this, her teaching style weaves the ways of the modern-day world back to the sacred text of yoga, making it applicable to today’s turbulent times both spiritually/physically/emotionally.

“My goal has always been to create a safe space for people to unfurl + unwind. It is important to teach students how to give themselves permission to press pause and have a genuine healing experience - wherever, and whenever. My roll as a teacher to is to remind students that they have access to all the tools + techniques within themselves that will unlock the magic and mysticism of being a human on this earth.”
