Kat 'Sparklez' Schamens
Considered to be a genuine sparkle spirit, finding herself here, there, + everywhere. Born and raised as a southern gal in North Carolina, steeped deep in the electric field of Brooklyn/NYC for 7 years, and currently calling Berlin her homebase as she taps deeper into her German roots. Her passion for yoga was sparked when she was 12 years old as she heard it would improve her skills as a dancer, needless to say she never went professional but she can attest to the open hips helping her in any dance off that she happens to find herself in. Did someone say, drop down and do a split? Because she's probably already on the floor. She's unapologetically sorry, but 100% guilty of being a training junkie (see certs below). She loves immersing herself with the masters + pulling what truly resonates with herself to create a well rounded practice while having a fun time. She's incredibly enthusiastic for living life to it’s fullest which is part of the reason why she's embraced being an international yoga teacher + doterra wellness advocate. The yoga practice saved Kat's life at age 30 when she survived a car accident leaving her with a broken left arm, C2, and right rib. If it wasn't for the flexibility of her spine, the spinal column would've snapped in half, Kat sees this experience as one of her most challenging life trainings, but wouldn't trade the lessons learned for anything. She's eternally grateful for the practice + loves sharing it's benefits with everyone that she meets. She loves assisting people in connecting to their ultimate divine purpose through the process of yoga, meditation, self care practices, + simply sharing the lifestyle of the best sparkly life.

Yoga Saved my Life,
After surviving an auto accident with a fractured left arm, right rib, and C2, I was told that if it wasn't for the yoga practice, my spinal column would've snapped in half. Not only did it save my life, but it also facilitated my recovery on a physical, emotional, and mental level. Despite the hardships that come with accidents, the lessons learned prove to be more valuable than 1,000 hours of yoga teacher training. So here’s to focusing on what’s possible versus what our limitations are. Our strengths can propel us forward while our weaknesses can give space for greater awakenings. It’s easy to let the setbacks bring you down, but hiding from your issues doesn’t make them go away. Confront them, learn from them, and let the unfortunate events be valuable lessons. Each day will present its own struggles. Yet, I feel so strong just by lifting my head off my pillow. Relish in your small victories, step by step you’ll get further along your path |
