Meet Katya, aka PRAKTIKA! Katya’s passion for movement, anatomy, and nutrition sparked in her late teenage years. Picture her spending all her pocket money on fitness magazines and VHS tapes, using them to craft workouts for her classmates and teach her first “shaping” classes in the school gym. During her university years, she discovered Pilates and yoga—practices that soon became her daily routine and solid anchor during challenging times. In 2019, Katya embarked on her teaching journey. Gradually earning certifications as a Yoga Alliance teacher, Pilates Instructor, and Health Coach, she turned her ever-growing passion into a profession. With a holistic view of health, Katya enjoys bringing a playful element to her coaching and movement classes. She challenges her clients with engaging workouts, helps them find balance in their nutrition, and encourages mindful movement that strengthens the body and soothes the mind. “Never stop learning, stay curious, and have fun”—these values are at the heart of Katya’s life philosophy, and they shape everything she shares through her work. Over the years, PRAKTIKA has blossomed into a vibrant, supportive community where inspiration and motivation flow both ways. Whether you are an experienced mover and wellness enthusiast or just beginning your journey, you’ll find a welcoming space here.
