Kate Dagher

Kate Dagher is from Canada originally and has been living in Dublin since 2020.

She has been practicing yoga for 9 years and is very dedicated to making the gift of yoga accessible to all of her students no matter what their age or ability so that each person can find their own yoga.

When she first tried yoga she did not enjoy it, found it a bit boring and just ‘did not get it’.  Fortunately she tried a different teacher, and almost straight away she felt completely different in the class and began practicing yoga herself from then on.

This was a very big learning for her, and she realized how important the teacher is who is guiding the class.

While travelling some people observed her practicing yoga, and asked if she could she teach some informal classes.  She loved the experience of teaching right from the start, and enjoyed sharing her love and joy of yoga with others.  Kate loved the teaching aspect and decided when travelling Central and South America to complete her first yoga teacher training course.

Kate mainly teaches Vinyasa flow and also Yin yoga.

She gives variations of postures so that you can choose whether to practice the more accessible versions or the more challenging practices.  Kate often uses props to help create more space in the bidy, and to help find more accessible variations of the postures.

For students who are comfortable, Kate gives hands on adjustments.

Kate trained originally in Colombia with Andrew Singer and Andrea Vasquez in 2019.

She also completed a Yin Yoga CPD training with Yoga Tree in Canada in 2020.

Kate undertook another 300 hour yoga teacher training with Soma Yoga Institute in Greece in 2024.  This brought Kate a deeper understanding and a deeper confidence in her teaching.

Kate has a daily meditation practice and will guide you on a simple breath focussed meditation with very clear explanation so that you will be able to practice yourself at home after the retreat.

She also teaches yoga nidra deep relaxation which brings you to a state almost between sleeping and waking.

Kate lives her life according to yoga principles and this is a big part of her life.

To Kate, yoga is so much more than a physical practice- it’s a tool to get to know yourself and to really get in touch with what you need and want at every stage of life.

Her wish is to share this practice, its transformative nature and its philosophy with as many people as possible.
