Knowing people who experienced breathwork sessions I was intrigued. I was open to the method guided by Catarina. The result was the most extraordinary experience I ever had and the impact on my body and mind was transcendental.
I never thought I could have reached the inner level of my body and mind using breathing technics. I highly recommend this breathing practice where you can reach a calming state and resolve open questions.

I feel so fortunate to have found this amazing space! If you are on the path to learning loving acceptance of your body, you should try this place! If you are not on the path of learning loving acceptance of your body, what are you waiting for? and you should try this place! Catarina is a knowledgeable and intuitive instructor who has a knack for saying exactly what you need to hear, right when you need to hear it. I have tried many other fitness groups and fitness activities over the years, but I have never felt as welcomed as I do here. I look forward to continuing to grow in my practice in this special place and I recommend it highly to anyone who wants their fitness journey to be more than isolated drudgery.

A Retreat in Motion – Portugal Like Never Before

This 10-day retreat through Portugal was unforgettable — deeply personal and beautifully curated by our yoga instructor Catarina, a native of Portugal. We explored the country through her eyes and heart, and in doing so, we truly felt its soul.

We stayed in incredible places: a wildlife sanctuary, a palace, a beach house, and even a windmill! The entire journey was enriched by meaningful moments with Catarina’s friends and family, which gave us a true taste of the culture. Yoga was thoughtfully woven into the experience, enhancing our reflection and connection.

Catarina’s love for her country and for us as her guests came through in every detail. She was devoted to making our experience magical — and she did just that.

A Retreat in Motion is more than a trip — it’s a soulful adventure I will carry with me forever.

With heartfelt gratitude,
Sandi Kroh

I went to my first ever breath work session at Hall of Self and enjoyed private class with Catarina ( my partner and I were the only ones at this class)! She made sure to thoroughly explain what we would be doing, possible outcomes of the session, and aftercare. The class was very intense and interesting— my partner and I both felt more grounded and aware afterwards. The room was cozy with blankets, eye masks, and music. Would recommend!

Catarina is a kind and generous teacher who offers intuitive and personalized guidance to her students. The studio is a beautiful reimagining of a neighborhood church and offers many different types of classes in several different rooms which accommodate all types of practices. She also offers a trial week for $30 so that one can try out multiple classes, whether that be yoga, Pilates, breathwork, or a gentle sound bath in a serene setting. I definitely also recommend Mike’s classes on Monday and Wednesday nights for a challenging but gentle flow.

People! Our own Patterson Park neighborhood yoga space here, and it's not contingent upon weather! The space in this converted church is stunning. The mats and props are high quality, the classes are small and the instructors are great. Please join us!

The Hall of Self/Catarina's practice is a welcome addition to our growing neighborhood. I am so thrilled to have a local studio with so many mind/body balance, healing and self care options. The space itself is both absolutely stunning (a renovated church complete with stained glass windows) and also incredibly calming. Catarina exudes kindness and you immediately feel welcomed. I attended a group breathwork experience and can't recommend attending a session enough. The experience is hard to describe but that's what makes Catarina so great, she'll guide you and explain everything. I have anxiety and felt very open and at ease during Catarina's session thanks to her debrief and encouragement. It surpassed my expectations both physically and emotionally. I'm very much looking forward to not only another Breathwork experience but trying the many other offerings at The Hall of Self. My session was a wonderful reminder of why trying new things can be so rewarding!
