Cator Shachoy began practices of Buddhist meditation, yoga, and Energetic healing in 1990 as the result of chronic illness. Through the regular practice of these disciplines she began to recover her strength and vitality. In 1995 Cator moved to San Francisco, where she teaches yoga and meditation classes to adults and youth, and has a private practice in Cranio-sacral bodywork. In her classes, Cator emphasizes the potential for body, mind, and heart through mindful awareness. She delights in sharing these practices which inspire her life.
