Katie Patterson

She discovered yoga through a small home studio in Missoula Montana 12 years ago. She initially went to support a friend, viewing yoga as a stretching class for hippies, she never considered yoga would have anything to offer her personally. At the time she was a wildland firefighter on a HOTSHOT crew. Intense work & intense fitness were her life.

After just a few sessions, yoga had her attention. Not only did she break a sweat, it did wonders for restoring her old injuries, she had better balance, her mental state was more clear; all of which crossed over ten fold to her work as a HOTSHOT. She could see the benefits of a consistent practice stacking up and she was hooked.

She became a twice daily practitioner and it wasn’t long before she knew she needed to be a teacher.

Helping people become the best versions of themselves through fitness, nutrition, and positive mindset has always been a passion of hers, and yoga was just the thing she was looking for to make that passion a reality long term.

She became certified in Hatha yoga with an emphasis on Bikram Method Hot Yoga in 2012. She’s taught in several studios and countless outdoor classes all over Northern California, and have finally landed in her new home studio here at Peak Fitness.

Katie and her husband transferred to McCall several years ago to be closer to their families and have never looked back! From skiing, to hiking, to the morrels, huckleberries, and lakeside yoga sessions, she believes McCall is truly is paradise.

In the fall of 2020 she became certified in prenatal/postnatal & trauma informed yoga to support her own pregnancy. She is a new mama to a 4 month old boy, Bodhi. This new certification in addition to her previous training, has given her a very broad platform from which to teach.

Her classes range from traditional Bikram Method, to free flowing Hatha, to fully restorative. She enjoys catering her classes to the individuals who come and is always looking for ways to accommodate every student’s personal practice.
