Laughing Buddha Yoga & Wellness with Kate

Laughing Buddha Yoga & Wellness with Kate Teaching Yoga and moving bodies for 15 years and counting in Cork City and my home of EAST CORK.

So happy to be opening my new yoga and wellness space in Carrigtwohill Co.Cork after owning and running Laughing Buddha Yoga Room in Midleton for 8 years and then taking a break for a couple of years to have my kids,the time is nigh to own some space once again. I have been practising yoga myself for approx 14 years and decided to become a teacher 12 years ago, as I wanted to delve deeper into the

knowledge of postures and the history of this amazing way of life. Ive been very lucky to now have a full time job once again in doing this work, even luckier to have many yogis attend my classes on a weekly basis, some attending up to 3/4 times a week. I completed my Hatha Yoga teacher training in cork in 2010 and then went on to do my kids yoga teacher training with Rainbow kids in Dublin, 8 years ago....Im also a fully qualified Yin Yoga instructor, where I trained under Josh Summers in Cork years back and qualified in my Prenatal Yoga teaching in London in the same year. I regularly freshen up my own practice by attending many workshops in different styles of yoga (my personal favourite being vinyasa style flow classes) in many countries,most recently being blessed to have travelled to Bali for teaching, training, recreation and amazing times. I first started teaching in Cork City before the urge to open my Midleton yoga studio in the summer of 2010, where I thought yoga for adults, kids yoga, hot yoga, yin yoga and prenatal too. All of which will now be brought to Laughing Buddha 2 in Carrigtwohill. I also teach freelance groups and private sessions with rugby,soccer and cycling teams, aswel as teaching in peoples homes and corporate workplaces

All teachers hosting their classes here at Laughing Buddha Yoga & Wellness Studio are fully qualified, insured and certified to teach what they preach :-)

I will always aim to keep my classes fun and welcoming and I hope you leave every practice a little lighter, stronger,smilier and calmer than when you came in. Meet you on the mat,

JOIN ME FOR SOME MELLOW PAUSE. I’m so excited to share the first of my monthly Yin Yoga wind downs. This month it will be held in Castlemartyr. A lovely natural setting where you have the option of popping into the Sauna after for some added endorphins or get the blood pumping with a jump in their cave cooled plunge pool. This 2 hr practice will be a mix of both Yin and Yang as we will be practicing in a covered open space. Price is €25 for Yoga with me and €15 for a 1 hr Sauna/Cold Plunge session after which is completely optional but highly recommended🙌🏻😝as always everyBODY is welcome and this is open to both beginners and more regular yoga practitioners.

My Story

So happy to be heading into our 7th year as Midleton and East Corks most established and long standing yoga and meditation studio. I have been practising yoga myself for approx 10 years and decided to become a teacher 7 years ago, as I wanted to delve deeper into the knowledge of postures and the history of this amazing way of life. Ive been very lucky to now have a full time job in doing this work, even luckier to have many yogis attend my classes on a weekly basis, some attending up to 3/4 times a week. I completed my Hatha Yoga teacher training in cork in 2010 and then went on to do my kids yoga teacher training with Rainbow kids in Dublin, in November 4 years ago....Im also a fully qualified Yin Yoga instructor, where I trained under Josh Summers in Cork a few years back and qualified in my Prenatal Yoga teaching in London in the same year. I regularly freshen up my own practice by attending many workshops in different styles of yoga (my personal favourite being vinyasa style flow classes) in many countries, most recently being blessed to have travelled to Bali for teaching, training, recreation and amazing times. I first started teaching in Cork City before the urge to open this yoga studio in the summer of 2010, where I now teach, yoga for adults, kids yoga, hot yoga, yin yoga and prenatal too.I also teach freelance group and private sessions with rugby,soccer and cycling teams, aswel as teaching in peoples homes and corporate workplaces All teachers hosting their classes here at Laughing Buddha Yoga Room are fully qualified, insured and certified to teach what they preach :-) I will always aim to keep my classes fun and welcoming and I hope you leave every practice a little lighter, stronger,smilier and calmer than when you came in.
