Katchie Ananda has been with Jivamukti since its early days. Originally a student, she became a teacher at the 2nd Avenue Center after Shyamdas encouraged Sharon to hire her. Katchie has lived in Switzerland, Brazil, New York City, San Francisco, and now resides in South Dakota with her husband, Joshua, and their dog, Naya.

Katchie is certified in Anusara, Jivamukti, and Integral Yoga, and she has two certifications for completion in Ashtanga Yoga Training with Richard Freeman. In addition to her yoga background, she was trained in Theravadan Buddhism by Jack Kornfield and co-founded Yoga Sangha, which later became Yoga Kula, in San Francisco.

Katchie teaches the Art of Awakening and is dedicated to old-school liberal values, such as free speech, women’s rights, and sovereignty. She cares deeply about animals and the environment and is committed to fostering a more harmonious world for all.
