Kaitlyn Fordham

Kaitlyn began her journey with yoga by chance in 2014 when a friend asked to try a yoga class with her. After taking that first class, she instantly fell in love with the practice. Almost a decade later, her practice has evolved and grown into a multi-faceted passion influenced by many different yoga schools, movement styles, and teachers.
She journeyed to Nelson, BC in 2019 to take her 200hr Teacher Training and a year later, in the midst of the pandemic, she started offering free classes online to friends, family and coworkers. During this time, she also received a 300hr Advanced Teacher Training online. In the beginning of 2022, she began teaching regular classes at South Studio. As a never-ending student, she has plans to complete more trainings in areas such as functional range conditioning, myofascial release for yoga, and meditation.
Kaitlyn’s classes specialize in creative flows with a heavy focus on anatomy, body mechanics, self-awareness, and individual expression. With experience in many areas such as Ashtanga yoga, alignment-based yoga, functional range conditioning, and creative movement, you can expect almost anything in her classes.
Outside of yoga, Kaitlyn has a passion for the outdoors. In the summer you can find her at the lake, on a hiking trail, in the mountains, or in the garden. In the winter, she loves skating and cross-country skiing. She is also on a lifelong path of learning about plant medicines, studying with an indigenous herbalist and naturopath, learning about the physical and energetic healing properties of plants and how we can connect with them in life.
