#11 KATARINA RAYBURN - YOGA TEACHER AND STUDIO OWNER

Katarina Rayburn (@katarinarayburnyoga) has made a, perhaps unexpected, journey from trained actress and physics graduate to hugely popular London-based yoga teacher and studio owner (Kindred Yoga - @kindredyogalife). Having completed her first 200hr training in India, with the Yoga People, followed by plenty more advanced training, she now teaches a stye that combines Rocket Yoga, with the Mandala model, working closely with chakra and elemental theories.

WE TALK ABOUT

The journey from actress to yoga teacher to studio owner /// How confidence, persistence and consistency pay off /// Hustling, grafting and saying yes to every opportunity /// The line between being confident and cocky /// The challenges of owning a yoga studio /// The sacrifice of social life and relationships when working to build a yoga career /// The business of yoga /// How a strong practice doesn’t always translate to good teaching /// The difference between wealth and success

QUOTES

‘I threw myself into everything because I had the time and space in my life to do it’

‘Don’t suddenly make something up for an audition - do something you know!’

‘I’m very much go with my gut; very headstrong; and I want everything straight away!’

‘I’m willing to take the risk and see if it pays off.’
