​MOVEMENT & MEDITATION

From a young age, movement has been medicine. Catherine competed in a variety of sports and loved training and improving performance. In her 20's, her sister asked her to go mountain biking and she fell in love with the sport. Soon afterwards they joined a local triathlon club and had fun racing. After several running injuries, she switched to road cycling.

 

As a late bloomer to competitive cycling, her progress was fast. She contacted her first cycling coach and after 6 months of training and her first International event, Catherine met National Standards. She was classified as a C5 para-cyclist and won at Nationals. Due to injuries, her para-cycling career was cut short but she is grateful for the experience. While training at an elite level, she learned first hand about rest and recovery, sport psychology, consistent manual therapy and food as fuel for performance.

​

Additionally, for over 2 decades, Catherine has had a daily Vipassana meditation practice. After trying several types of meditation, she gravitated towards Vipassana meditation, a pure form of meditation that observes mind and matter through sensations. With daily practice, it continues to provide transformative effects for physical, mental, and spiritual health.
