Cathy Cox

Cathy began practicing yoga in 1995, and has been teaching since 1998. She lives in Laguna Beach, California, and teaches at three studios for Yoga Works in Orange County. Cathy's teacher training with Baron began in 2001, after she had been teaching for 3 years. Her previous training in vinyasa, Iyengar, and Viniyoga gave her a strong foundation that she used to enthusiastically embrace the strength, flow, and philosophy of the Baptiste Power Vinyasa Yoga style. Cathy continues to enrich her teaching and her personal practice through her studies with Baron at Bootcamps and workshops.

Cathy believes yoga should be a joyful life practice on and off the mat. Her practice and her teaching have been a constant source of grounding for her through many life changes. She combines her warm sense of humor and playful style to create challenging, yet fun, yoga classes. In addition to teaching, Cathy leads retreats and holds workshops to help her students enhance their practice.

In addition to being a Certified Baptiste Power Vinyasa Yoga teacher, Cathy is certified as a Yoga Therapist through Phoenix Rising Yoga Therapy, and is registered with the Yoga Alliance. She is also a member of the International Association of Yoga Therapists. Cathy holds master's degrees in Physical Health Education and in Social Work. Her education, training and life experiences come together to inspire her creative style of teaching. When she's not teaching, Cathy enjoys the beach lifestyle in Laguna. She also loves spending time with her family and traveling to see friends.
