Meet Anastasiia, Your Yoga Instructor at Kitty Yoga 🧘♀️🐾
Hi there! I’m Anastasiia, a yoga instructor passionate about movement, mindfulness, and helping people reconnect with their bodies… all while being surrounded by the gentle purrs of adorable kitties.
My yoga journey began 10 years ago, when I joined outdoor yoga practices with my sister in our hometown. Since then, I’ve fallen in love with yoga — not just for its physical benefits, but for its ability to anchor us in the present moment. Earlier this year, I completed my 200-hour YTT, and I’ve been teaching ever since!
🧘♀️ My classes combine gentle flow with intentional stillness. Whether we’re exploring Yin or a calming stretch session with soft music and curious cats nearby, my goal is to create a peaceful and welcoming space for every body and every soul.
When I’m not on the mat, I’m usually out adventuring! I love cycling, exploring the trails around Ottawa, and spending time in nature. This fall, I’ll be serving as the president of the Parks Canada Outdoor Club at Carleton University — organizing hikes, paddles, and all kinds of nature-filled fun.
✨ Fun fact: This May, I’ll be taking on my very first triathlon! I’m both nervous and excited — I just love challenging myself and staying active.
I can’t wait to meet you in class, share some peaceful moments (and a few kitty cuddles), and help you tap into your stillness and joy.
Namaste 🙏
Anastasiia 🌸
