Cathy Woods, Yoga Instructor and Equestrian

Cathy Woods is the creator of Body, Mind, Equine and author of Yoga for Riders; a long-time yoga teacher/retreat leader, horsewoman, and avid, backcountry trail rider. She leads retreats and clinics around the country at ranches, expos, and equine centers and has an online course series through WeHorse. Cathy has been leading yoga programs to horse lovers and non-equestrians for nearly thirty-two years. Her yoga and equine programs teach the parallels between yoga and horsemanship. Body, Mind, Equine is not about doing yoga on the back of a horse, but rather how to use yoga principles (not just postures) to improve horsemanship from ground to saddle and become a more aware, mindful equestrian.

In addition, Cathy also teaches good stretches for riders. Combining her passions of yoga, horses, and travel, her one-of-a-kind programs has reached national acclaim, Woods has written for and been featured in numerous online and print publications such as Horse & Rider Magazine, Horse Illustrated, Equus, Cowgirl Magazine, Western Horse & Gun Magazine, EQAMerica, StreamhorseTV, Yoga Digest, Forbes.com, Equitrekking, Flying Changes Magazine, and others. Woods aims to impart an aware/mindful approach to yoga and horsemanship in order to make enhanced horsemanship and true yoga accessible to everyone while promoting a more enriched and skillful life. She is based in the Great Smoky Mountains of North Carolina but teaches nationally.
