Katy Scherer Yoga Katy Scherer is an Authorised level 1 Ashtanga and Breathwork teacher based in Bonn, Germany. When it comes to breathwork and pranayama it's a different story.

I am also the co-founder and owner of The Vinyasa People Yoga Studio and Yin Nation a yoga and lifestyle store. I love to blur the lines between tradition and modernity fascinating, scary, provocative and transformational! An Ashtangi at heart I find comfort and support within the traditions of the practice, completing 3 months of study in Mysore under Sharath Jois and gaining his blessing to teach in 2022 where I received my authorisation. After years of traditional practice I shook things up and dove head first into the world of breathwork where I experienced the life altering power of breath! Blending in tradition, modern science and dynamic breathwork practices I offer a space for all students to go all in, go deep all whilst being supported on the breathwork journey. I whole heartedly believes there is a beauty in combining the tradition with the modern to create a practice that serves you so you can serve others. As dedicated practitioner, teacher, business owner, mama and wife I understands the true meaning of flexibility and likes to share the lessons I has learnt to all willing to try. Over the years as a teacher I completed my first RYT 200 Hour training with Seasonal Yoga in Glasgow and then my RYT 300 with Tribe in Austria. I later went on the do a second RYT 200, The Ashtanga Intensive with the Miami Life Center and my 500 Hour Pranayama and breath work teacher training with Pranayama Sadhana in beautiful Bali. I do my very best to keep learning and attend workshops and trainings as often as possible. Some of these have been a 50 Hour Adjustment training with the incredible David Swenson, a Yin level 1 and 2 training with Yogaveo, breathwork Master training with Dan Bruhle and the Oxygen Advantage training with Patrick Macgowan.

What actually makes you an advanced yoga student?

It’s not necessarily the person doing the deepest backbend or the most complicated arm balance.

For me, an advanced yoga practitioner is someone who knows when to push forward and, perhaps more importantly, when to take a step back.

Someone who understands their body, can maintain a steady breath and doesn’t feel the need to prove anything.

After years of teaching yoga, I’ve come to realise that some of the most advanced students in the room aren’t necessarily the ones doing the most advanced postures.

**Sometimes knowing when NOT to do something is the most advanced part of the practice.**

Curious to hear what other yoga teachers and practitioners think. What makes someone advanced in your eyes?

Sped up as it’s a long video but I hope this conversation is a useful one to someone out there. ❤️

In just a few weeks, I’m heading back to India!

First stop, Goa, where I’m really excited to be teaching, and then onwards to Mysore for my annual pilgrimage.

After so many years of returning to the same place, I have memories upon memories upon memories. Mysore has been such a big part of my life, a place of learning, growth, friendships and so much change. It really does feel like a second home.

But this time feels different.

It’s my the first full season since Guruji’s passing, and if I’m honest, I’m feeling a little nervous about going back. Funny how, after all these years, it almost feels like the first time again. The nerves, the unknown, the excitement of it all.

I’m not entirely sure where I fit into the yoga community these days, and maybe that’s okay. A lot has changed over the years, myself included.

But one thing hasn’t changed. My connection to Mysore and everything that place has given me.

So, a mixture of excitement, nerves and a little nostalgia as I get ready to head back. ❤️

True story!
If India next month is not possible for you then why not join & myself in Norway in February?! We are so excited to be heading back for a winter retreat of Ashtanga and Yin as well as ice baths, sauna, friendship and hopefully northern lights!
Go on, book it. It’ll be fun! DM me for more details ❤️

Yep, it was us.
Never underestimate yourself or undervalue what you bring to the table.

You are capable of so much more than you think. Sometimes you just need to give yourself the chance to find out.

I think there comes a point in your career when you realise it’s time to start passing some of your experience on.
After more than 12 years of teaching full-time, thousands of hours in the studio, teacher trainings, retreats, running businesses and making plenty of mistakes along the way, I’m starting to feel that I’ve got a few things worth sharing.

This weekend I’ll be holding my first mentorship session for our teaching team at The Vinyasa People and The Pilates People.

It’s a new role for me, and one I’m genuinely looking forward to growing into.

There’s so much about being a teacher that you simply don’t learn in a teacher training. Finding your confidence, navigating difficult situations, setting boundaries, dealing with self-doubt and figuring out how to make a career in this industry sustainable.

I’ve learnt a lot of those lessons through experience. Some the hard way.

I don’t have all the answers, and I certainly haven’t stopped learning myself. But I hope that by sharing some of what I’ve experienced, I can make the journey a little easier for those newer to teaching who want that support.

I’ve had some wonderful teachers and mentors over the years. It feels like the right time to give a little of that back.
I’d love to hear from other teachers. Have you had a mentor? And do you think mentorship is something our industry needs more of?
