Gravity Lift Podcast Episode 6 - Walter Yoga

Gravity Lift Podcast

Our guests for this episode of the Gravity Lift Podcast are Kate Swarm & Gordon Ogden. We met these two essentially via social media, but right away we knew there was something special about them...something that transcended far beyond the often-fake world of Instagram. After a couple memorable face-to-face interactions, they invited us to teach an all-immersive experience with Walter Yoga down in Arizona, and it was absolutely AMAZING. We're so excited to have connected with these two stellar individuals and their respective beautiful families. Keep an eye out for more Walter Yoga x Gravity Lift collaborations ;) http://www.walteryoga.com/ http://www.walteryoga.com/teachers/ Below are both Kate & Gordon's bio's: Kate Swarm is an international yoga teacher based out of Oregon, with a passion for creating unique and fully immersive experiences. She has a gift for holding a sacred space of transcendence, while guiding her students to a place of union between mind, body and soul. Over the last 5 years her devotion and excitement to exploring how environment, sensory input, and intention effects a shift in consciousness, has lead her to work beside some of the most gifted artists, musicians and creatives in the wellness movement; including Walter Yoga, for whom she is both a resident yoga instructor and event producer. Kate has taught at numerous yoga and music festivals throughout the Nation, blurring the lines between yoga, movement, meditation, visual engineering, and sound immersion. Although she spends a significant amount of time curating external environmental elements, Kate is even more detail oriented when it comes to exploring her students internal environment of the “self”. She has a warm, peaceful, and grounding presence that gently guides her students to a peak state of integrated body awareness, intelligent and thoughtful movement, and self realization. Besides holding a sacred space of mind-blowing-multidimensional-blissed-out-radical-transformation Kate is a mom and a wife, who loves to dance, laugh, and never takes life too seriously. She started on her yoga journey after suffering through an extremely difficult loss. Yoga was what helped Kate find love, peace, contentment and purpose for her life, it is her greatest joy to give that gift back to the world. Gordon was first introduced to yoga nearly 20 years ago, he immediately recognized the gifts of yoga and has never looked back. In 2014, wanting to deepen his practice, he completed his 200-hour teacher certification with John Salisbury. He has seen the amazing growth,undeniable joy, and freedom that yoga cultivates in one’s life and wants to share that with every student. In addition to being a certified yoga teacher, Gordon teams up with Kate to co-produce extraordinary yoga events with Walter Yoga. He’s been a marketing professional since the mid 1990’s, an avid rock climber, and lives in Phoenix with his wife Holly, and their daughter Willow.
