Katy Scherer Yoga

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 teac

h 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.

CONFESSIONS OF A STUDIO OWNER

I own a wellness business and sometimes I am absolutely fu***ng exhausted.

There. I said it.

I spend a ridiculous amount of my working life telling people to listen to their bodies, rest when they need to, breathe, create space and stop glorifying being busy.

Meanwhile, I can be teaching, answering emails, solving staff problems, planning trainings, checking numbers, making content, dealing with the broken toilet and thinking about next year — all before I’ve actually noticed that I’m tired.

The irony is not lost on me.

And I think there’s another slightly uncomfortable conversation here.

Sometimes the thing exhausting us isn’t that we need better boundaries.

It’s that we’ve built lives we actually really fu***ng care about.

I love my studios. I love teaching. I love creating things. I have ideas constantly. I want to say yes. I want to make things happen.

And that makes it dangerously easy to overstretch yourself.

Because burnout doesn’t always come from doing things you hate.

Sometimes it comes from being completely incapable of putting down the things you love.

I’m still learning that having the capacity to do something doesn’t automatically mean I should.

And apparently owning a yoga studio does not make you magically good at yoga philosophy.

Confession over.

Eleven years ago, I went to India for the first time.

I landed in Goa, at Purple Valley, with absolutely no idea just how much that trip would shape the years that followed.

India became somewhere I returned to again and again. A place where I spent months practising, learning, questioning, being challenged, and falling more deeply into a practice that would eventually become such a huge part of my life and work.

At the end of this year, I’m going back.

And there’s something quite emotional about the fact that I’m returning to the place where it all began.

Purple Valley was my first experience of India 11 years ago. I arrived there as a student, curious and probably a little overwhelmed by it all. This November, I return as a teacher, sharing the practice and this place with others.

It feels less like going somewhere new and much more like a homecoming.

So much has changed in those eleven years. I’ve changed. My relationship with yoga has changed. My understanding of practice, teaching, tradition and what actually matters has changed.

But India still holds a very particular place in my heart.

From 7–21 November, I’ll be teaching the Ashtanga Yoga Chikitsa Immersion at Purple Valley Goa alongside Joseph Armstrong and Edgar Navarro.

Two weeks of Mysore practice, pranayama, chanting, philosophy, workshops, movement and time to properly immerse yourself in the practice — whether Ashtanga has been part of your life for years or you’re still relatively new to it.

It feels incredibly special to be able to invite people to join me somewhere that has meant so much to my own journey.

Eleven years later, back where it started. 🤍

10 years. Somehow that feels impossible.

I first came to a decade ago and every year since, coming back has felt a little like coming home.

Of course, the people are different every time. The conversations are different. We are all a little older, a little wiser, carrying different stories and experiences. But there is something about this place that never changes.

What I love most isn’t the yoga itself. It’s watching what happens around it.

Watching people arrive as strangers and leave as friends. Watching confidence grow. Watching people surprise themselves. Watching them find a little more space to breathe, move, laugh and simply be.

Yoga gives us the container, but it’s the people who make the experience what it is.

Feeling very grateful to keep returning to this special corner of the world and to share it with such wonderful humans year after year. 🤍

I can usually tell who won’t be here in six months.

It’s often the most motivated person in the room.

The one who arrives with a perfect plan.
Big goals.
A brand new outfit.
And enough enthusiasm to power a small village.

Because motivation is exciting.

It makes us feel like we’ve already changed.

But real change is much less glamorous.

It’s showing up when nobody is watching.

It’s doing the boring stuff.

It’s coming to class when you’re not feeling inspired.

The students who are still here years later are rarely the most motivated.

They’re the most consistent.

And consistency is a lot less sexy than motivation.

Which is probably why nobody is trying to sell it to you on Instagram.

Signed,

A studio owner who has seen motivation come and go thousands of times.
