When you sign up for Yoga Teacher Training with Seek Yoga Collective, you are welcomed into a community that accepts you for who you are and will walk this path with you through darkness and light. We are here for it all.
PLUS, did we mention that we will spend four glorious weeks in beautiful Bali? What are you waiting for?!
THREE WEEKS THAT WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE THREE WEEKS THAT WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE THREE WEEKS THAT WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE
One of the things I always hear from people who have graduated from my training programs is, "This program changed my life." Everyone says it for a different reason, but the sentiment is the same. This program is TRANSFORMATIONAL.
A yoga teacher training is more than a certification. It’s a container where people live, learn, and transform together. Because of that, who steps into the circle matters just as much as what we teach.
At Seek Yoga Collective, we practice discernment when welcoming students into our YTT. This isn’t about exclusivity...it’s about alignment. We call in the right people at the right time, so that each person’s growth supports the whole group.
Who is this training for?
- A serious certified yoga teacher who wants to deepen your practice and understanding of yoga’s philosophy, energetics, and techniques
- Adventurous at heart, excited to balance study and self-inquiry with cultural experiences, hiking, and exploration in one of the most beautiful corners of the world
- Someone who feels called to teach and share yoga, or who simply seeks a transformational journey of self-discovery
- Ready for a challenging and rewarding pace—long days, powerful practices, and immersive learning in a supportive community
- Comfortable getting uncomfortable—This training invites you to grow on many levels: adapting to life in a new country for four weeks, embracing the elements and stepping into experiences and practices that may be entirely new to you
You’ll thrive in this training if you are:
- You’re just looking for a vacation. While there will be time to explore, this is a serious, immersive training designed to deepen your practice and teaching skills
- You’re not ready to be held accountable. This program asks you to show up fully, reflect honestly, and engage deeply with your growth as a practitioner and teacher
- You’re seeking a low-intensity or casual experience. Our days are purposeful, fast-paced, and designed to challenge your body, mind, and spirit. A fast paced learning environment isn’t for everyone, so please reach out in advance if you are worried about your ability to keep up with the pace
This Training May Not Be For You If:
Our training takes place in one of the world's most vibrant and spiritually rich destinations. Surrounded by lush rice fields, tropical landscapes, ancient temples, and the rhythms of Balinese Hindu culture, Bali offers a powerful environment to step away from the distractions of everyday life and fully immerse yourself in the practice of yoga.
For the first three weeks, we'll gather at a private luxury villa in Canggu—creating an intimate space for deep study, embodied practice, connection, and community. As our journey unfolds, we'll move south to Uluwatu for our final week together, where dramatic cliffs, ocean views, sacred temples, and the expansive energy of the sea create space for integration and reflection.

Catherine Wetenkamp is not just a teacher, she is a living embodiment of the yogic path, guiding others into their deepest power with clarity, reverence, and transformative presence. A lineage-rooted educator, storyteller, and visionary guide, Cat is the founder of Seek Yoga Collective (formerly Kintsugi Yoga) a community for seekers to discover that what they are seeking is already within themselves.
With well over 5,000 hours of teaching experience and 2,000+ hours of advanced training, Cat has led dozens of 200- and 300-hour yoga teacher trainings across the globe. Her work synthesizes power vinyasa, kriya, meditation, and Tantric philosophy, offering a rare depth of practice that initiates students into their own power as ritualists, leaders, and wise teachers.
Cat completed advanced initiatory study in Rishikesh, India. Through this sacred study within a living Himalayan Tantric lineage, Cat deepened her devotion to kriya yoga and the wisdom teachings of the Dasha Mahavidyas. She carries these teachings forward with reverence, integrity, and devotion. As a Kriya Yoga Master Teacher, her work is not merely instructional; it is devotional, radical, and liberatory.
Cat’s teachings have reached thousands—from sold-out crowds at Yoga on the Rocks (three-time featured teacher) to elite athletes like the Denver Broncos, whom she supports in mindfulness, recovery, and resilience. Across retreats, teacher trainings, and transformational spaces, she brings yoga into both peak performance and the quiet grit of everyday life.
A lifelong student of goddess mythology, non-dual Tantra, and the inner technologies of awakening, Cat teaches with both heart and precision. Her classes are not simply sequences; they are portals, alive with breath, story, sweat, and silence. Through her work, students do not just learn yoga; they begin to live it.

Laura’s path is one of devotion—to awakening, to nourishment, and to the quiet art of caring for others.
Her journey into awakening began early, shaped by a deep sensitivity to the unseen layers of life. Drawn to both Western and Eastern traditions, she has spent years exploring the philosophies and practices that illuminate the path of self-realization. This calling led her into profound and transformative studies in Zen Shiatsu, Macrobiotics, Yoga and Meditation, and Astrology—each discipline offering its own gateway into awareness, balance, and well-being. For years, she has walked the path of Tantra, embracing it as a way of life rooted in devotion, discipline, and the continuous evolution of the Self. Through this journey, a natural desire emerged: to share these teachings and guide others toward deeper connection and inner alignment.
Alongside this spiritual path, Laura’s culinary journey has been a parallel expression of love and nourishment. Her earliest memories are in the kitchen, baking biscuits with her mother—moments that instilled in her the understanding that food is union, love, and a way of caring for others. Raised in a family from Central and Southern Italy, she grew up immersed in a culture where cooking is an act of generosity and connection. Even as a child, she found joy in preparing meals for friends.
With the support of her mother, she began her professional culinary career in a one-star Michelin restaurant. Over the years, she has refined her craft in various kitchens, with one of her most impactful experiences being nearly two years in a Michelin-starred vegetarian restaurant. A vegetarian for over 15 years, she brings a thoughtful and creative approach to her cooking—blending local Italian flavors with ingredients and inspirations from around the world.
Her spiritual name, Annapurna, reflects her essence: the embodiment of nourishment and abundance through food. For Laura, cooking is more than a skill—it is a joyful, expressive, and sacred act of sharing love, cultivating connection, and caring for others on every level.

After three weeks of immersive study and practice, the final week shifts into a retreat-style experience where participants step into leadership and guide a class, workshop, or ritual inspired by the teachings of the training. Inviting people from your life to attend this week can be a beautiful way to share what you have been learning and practicing in a supportive environment.
Guests will be able to experience the retreat container alongside the group participating in practices, enjoying the beauty of Bali, and witnessing the culmination of your training as you step into teaching.
Many participants find that inviting someone from their life creates a meaningful bridge between the training experience and the world they will return to afterward. Benefits of inviting a guest may include:
- Sharing the experience with someone important in your life
- Allowing loved ones to witness your growth and transformation
- Practicing teaching in front of a supportive and familiar audience
- Giving your future students a glimpse into the type of retreats and experiences you may lead
- It can also be incredibly special to practice yoga, meditation, and ritual alongside someone you care about in such a beautiful and sacred setting.
It is known for its peaceful coastal environment, breathtaking landscapes, and vibrant wellness community. As with travel anywhere in the world, we recommend practicing common-sense awareness, but overall Bali is an incredibly supportive place to explore, practice, and study.
We recommend arriving at least one day before the training begins if possible, to give yourself time to settle in, rest, and acclimate to the new environment. We can recommend local accommodations for those that arrive a day early.
