Katrin beautifully incorporates the physical, spiritual, and musical aspects, drawing from a wide variety of yoga practices to make each class relaxing, enlightening, and energizing. I always leave feeling renewed and relaxed physically and mentally. Katrin Elia is an amazing, an excellent teacher, very alignment based so she will help you prevent injuries and help you glean the wonderful mind, body, spirit benefits of yoga.
She is a real gem. One ad describes the yoga studio perfectly "Katrin Elia Yoga feels like an Oasis of Peace on the Main Line" (only 15 minutes from Philadelphia). The space is wide open and translucent. The seven chakra colors are set as an accent throughout the studio. The atmosphere is personal and calming.

I've been taking Katrin's Monday night class for several years and my lower back pain is gone! I have been "Advil free" the whole time! She is patient and very forgiving and has great sense a humor that makes things really light hearted. My friend and I are total converts! The studio is warm and inviting, and Katrin offers interesting workshops and occasional live music.
Since there are so many problems in the Yoga world with prepaid class cards I decided to use PAY AS YOU GO. This payment protects both parties (student and studio). Cash, checks (a bank processing fee of $12 for a bounced check has to be paid by the student), and credit cards are accepted (except American Express).
The retreat is planed for Spring 2021 at the beautiful Buddhist Won Dharma Center in Claverack, NY. PS: This retreat is also for non-PA residents. Important is that your state is not on the list of States whose residents are forced to quarantine for 14 days when arriving to NY. Please contact the event organizer: Katrin (katrin@katrineliayoga.com) with any retreat related question.

Katrin has been my yoga teacher for over 3 years. Whether it is Yin Yoga, her speciality, the Yoga Wall or Vinyasa Yoga, Katrin treats everyone individually. She gets to know you and what you need in order to do a pose correctly and encourages the use of props. Under her guidance, I have been able to achieve a level of yoga competency that I never dreamed. She approaches each class with a wonderful sense of humor and a true caring for her students. She inspires me!

Yoga=Union and with Katrin the body, mind, and spirit harmonize and become one to experience the pureness of yoga. Practicing yoga with Katrin heals, strengthens and expands your mind and body. She is a giving instructor who has the rare skill of being able to see the body, not only to make the right adjustments, but Katrin perceptively understands each individual and what that body is capable of achieving. Katrin is a holistic instructor that shares her knowledge and healing skills. She has created a peaceful, beautiful place to practice.

Katrin is a talented and dedicated teacher. This is a boutique yoga studio, well suited to serious students who are engaged in a regular practice, or for new-comers who are interested in all of the benefits of yoga. If you're just looking for a workout, this isn't the place for you (though you'll get that and much more). But along the way you might stop to "workshop" a particular pose, try out the yoga wall, and learn how to avoid injury.
The studio itself is warm and inviting, and Katrin offers interesting workshops and occasional live music. Nice variety of classes

I've been going to Katrin's classes since for about 4 years now. I absolutely love her classes. She takes the time to explain each pose and goes around supporting students who could benefit from gentle adjustments to get the most out of the pose. Her classes are approachable and deep even for beginners. These are not sweaty fast paced yoga classes (at least not the ones I have been to). These are thoughtful heart centered classes where we have respect for where our bodies are at and we learn from each pose. I love it!
