If you had told 24-year-old me, Katie, that a Craigslist job search would lead me exactly where I am today 10 years later, still here at YogaSix Milwaukee, I wouldn’t have believed you! Yet here I am, a full decade later, still walking through these studio doors with so much gratitude, love, and awe for what this place means for so many and myself.
Most people don’t know that I’ve been with Y6 since before we even opened our doors. I still remember unpacking boxes of new yoga blocks, straps, and bolsters, carefully setting them on the shelves for our very first weekend of classes. It’s a memory that still makes me smile.
Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of stepping into each role within this space: Wellness Advisor, Yoga Teacher, Studio Manager, and currently Lead Teacher. Each role has shaped me in its own unique way and deepened my connection to this incredible community. YogaSix has truly become my second home, not just because I’m here nearly every day, but because of the people who fill these walls. The friendships formed here have grown into family, and the love and support I’ve felt within this community is something special.
I’ve witnessed the studio evolve through its seasons of change, and in turn, it has seen me through mine. I became both a yoga teacher and a mom in this studio, two of the greatest gifts and challenges of my life. It’s wild and humbling to now be facilitating the very teacher trainings that once changed my life and helped shape me into the person I am today. I still carry what I learned in my 200 hour every single day!
Every single morning, I get to wake up and do what I love, share yoga, to connect with people, to hold space, and to grow alongside this community. There aren’t quite enough words to express the depth of gratitude I have for this place.
YogaSix Milwaukee isn’t just a studio, it’s a living, breathing community that has supported so many through their own transformations. It’s a safe space, a sanctuary, and a home. I feel endlessly lucky to be part of something so meaningful in the heart of Milwaukee.
Thank you for 10 amazing years Y6, I cannot wait to see what the next 10 years has in store for us!
