So happy to be opening my new yoga and wellness space in Carrigtwohill Co.Cork after owning and running Laughing Buddha Yoga Room in Midleton for 8 years and then taking a break for a couple of years to have my kids,the time is nigh to own some space once again. I have been practising yoga myself for approx 14 years and decided to become a teacher 12 years ago, as I wanted to delve deeper into the
knowledge of postures and the history of this amazing way of life. Ive been very lucky to now have a full time job once again in doing this work, even luckier to have many yogis attend my classes on a weekly basis, some attending up to 3/4 times a week. I completed my Hatha Yoga teacher training in cork in 2010 and then went on to do my kids yoga teacher training with Rainbow kids in Dublin, 8 years ago....Im also a fully qualified Yin Yoga instructor, where I trained under Josh Summers in Cork years back and qualified in my Prenatal Yoga teaching in London in the same year. I regularly freshen up my own practice by attending many workshops in different styles of yoga (my personal favourite being vinyasa style flow classes) in many countries,most recently being blessed to have travelled to Bali for teaching, training, recreation and amazing times. I first started teaching in Cork City before the urge to open my Midleton yoga studio in the summer of 2010, where I thought yoga for adults, kids yoga, hot yoga, yin yoga and prenatal too. All of which will now be brought to Laughing Buddha 2 in Carrigtwohill. I also teach freelance groups and private sessions with rugby,soccer and cycling teams, aswel as teaching in peoples homes and corporate workplaces
All teachers hosting their classes here at Laughing Buddha Yoga & Wellness Studio are fully qualified, insured and certified to teach what they preach :-)
I will always aim to keep my classes fun and welcoming and I hope you leave every practice a little lighter, stronger,smilier and calmer than when you came in. Meet you on the mat,
Kate O Connor PROUD owner of Laughing Buddha Midleton and Laughing Buddha Yoga & Wellness Studio Carrigtwohill �
