Meet your facilitators
Jason & Kate have been in relationship for over 3 years, and like all relationships, there has been many growing pains and even more laughter, love and growth.
About Kate:
Yoga teacher, dancer, mother, mystic.Kate teaches pregnancy and birth yoga from deep in her heart, with love, and with the sole intention to guide her students in preparation for creating, growing, birthing and nurturing a life. She guides woman to connect with themselves and their babies. To trust in their power and intuition and to birth from within.
Kate’s love of community is tangible. It comes from her deep, wild love of of humanity, of life itself. It is most potent in her work with new mothers-to-be, as she guides them fearlessly within to seek the formation of a grounding, lasting bond between their own heart and the baby growing in their bellies.
Australian yoga teacher who has been practicing and teaching for more than twenty- five plus years.
As a Senior Yoga Australia teacher, Kate sat on the committee of Yoga Australia for three years. From 2007 to 2024 she ran a popular two-year teacher training program and ran two large yoga schools – former director of Fremantle Yoga Centre and Off the Wall.
Kate has four kids of her own and is known to local mums as the ‘baby whisperer’. Birth is her area of special interest and she helps many women as a Yoga Birthing Doula, has trained and inspired many teachers and presented on this topic at yoga conferences in Australia and on international training programs.
Kate’s commitment to be of service to her community is her passion, and she loves helping her students to open their hearts and shine their lights bright.
About Jason:
SomethingAs the father of 2 adult daughters, I have been through the trials of being a father to babies and the struggles it can introduce into a relationship.
Having spent the last 10 years and more supporting men 1-on-1 and in workshops/retreats, along with studying relationship dynamics and communication, I have learned a lot about how birthing partners can hold the masculine while being in relationship.
My role at this workshop is to give a man's perspective on the birth experience and share with the partners how they can best support themselves and the birthing mother during these dynamic times in pregnancy and beyond.
