Hi, I am Kathleen. I own and operate the moon + the mat. Here is a bit more about me:
Kathleen Pizzello
It was love at first Uttanasana. After her first yoga class Kathleen knew the practice would transform her life forever. Without a doubt, yoga has set her heart on fire and it is this passion that she wishes to share with the world. Kathleen began her journey of yoga teacher training in 2010 on the mystical Lago Atitlan in Guatemala focusing on Vinyasa, Sadhana, and Shamanic studies. Soon after that she discovered Anusara and completed another 300 hours of training in alignment based vinyasa yoga. She completed her advanced 300 hour teacher training with Sianna Sherman and Rasa Yoga, a "bhakti fusion of asana, mantra, mudra, pranayama, meditation, chanting, ritual and earth prayer" and is honored to be in apprenticeship with Sianna. Kathleen's teaching and learning are alive and ever evolving and it is her sincere hope that her love for the practice inspires others to live their own lives in joy and authenticity.
Kathleen Pizzello is a certified Level 2 AcroYoga teacher, blending the tradition of yoga with the playful practice of acrobatics and the therapeutics of Thai Massage. She has studied in depth with Sianna Sherman and Ashley Turner as an assistant for their 13 moon mystery school in the priestess tradition—a journey of deep inner work, personal growth, and ancient wisdom. She is also a Thai Yoga Massage and Usui Reiki 2 Practitioner. Kathleen's intention is to weave all of these teachings into her life and her offerings. Her classes offer healing alignment, depth yet lightheartedness, and cultivation of a fearless heart. Her goal is to guide students to a place of freedom in their bodies, minds, and hearts. It is with immense gratitude that she shares this most transformational practice.
Namaste + Blessed Be
