Hello friends,
I am Kathleen Belonga. My pronouns are she/her/hers. As a board-certified health coach, yoga therapist, and yoga teacher. I am here to guide you through the transformative potential of midlife. Midlife is not an ending but a chance to shed limiting beliefs and embrace newfound freedom, wisdom, and authenticity.​ Through personalized lifestyle coaching and the healing practices of yoga therapy, I help my clients embark on a journey of self-discovery and holistic well-being.
​
In addition to my private practice, I am an Adjunct Faculty in higher education, a mentor coach, and an instructor in accredited health coach certification programs.
My Story
I am a yogi, a coach, a teacher, a wife, and a mom. Before I stepped into the world of yoga and coaching, I spent nearly two decades in Corporate America. I know firsthand the challenges of juggling demanding work responsibilities while raising kids and trying to carve out time for exercise or preparing healthy meals. It can feel overwhelming! And, there is not a lot of time left for YOU.
​
Fast forward to midlife, you are starting to feel the consequences of not making yourself a priority. But it is not too late, creating a life you love is possible. If you're seeking balance in your life and looking to integrate healthy habits into your daily routine, I'd love to connect with you! Embracing a happy, healthy lifestyle is within your reach.
​
What I love most about my work is the opportunity to help you build the joyful, vibrant life that you’ve been dreaming of. I view midlife as an incredible time for transformation and new beginnings. For over a decade, I've guided clients on their unique journeys, helping them shed limiting beliefs and embrace their true selves. My approach is deeply personal, grounded in the belief that midlife holds immense potential for each individual.
​
My focus is on personalized lifestyle coaching with an emphasis on plant-based nutrition and yoga therapy, assisting you through pivotal transitions in your life.
​
The greatest joy I experience as a health coach comes from witnessing my clients' transformative journeys. It’s a privilege to see you realize your full potential and cultivate newfound confidence and clarity. This process of self-discovery and growth inspires me every day, and I can’t wait to embark on this journey with you.

Yoga Therapy
Yoga therapy offers a holistic approach to well-being, focusing on the whole individual rather than just symptoms. Central to this practice is the Pancha Maya kosha model, which identifies five layers of being: the physical, energy, mental, wisdom, and bliss bodies.
​
Many people find yoga therapy enhances conventional medical care by helping manage pain, improve mobility, and support mental and emotional health. This integrative practice includes poses, breathing exercises, mindfulness, and other techniques tailored to individual health challenges, reducing stress and improving quality of life.
​
Ultimately, yoga therapy nurtures the whole self and promotes joy during the healing journey, paving the way for a more vibrant and balanced life. Let’s embark on this uplifting path to wellness together!

​
We will combine Eastern wellness traditions with Western medical insights to address your health concerns and promote long-term vitality.

Stress Management for Test Anxiety: Improve Focus + Calm
As someone who has personally struggled with test-taking, I understand the challenges and anxieties that come with high-stakes exams. This course is born from my own journey and the strategies I've developed to overcome these hurdles.​
​
My path to success was not without its unexpected twists. Just when I was initially scheduled to take my board exam, life threw me a curveball. This experience taught me the importance of flexibility and self-care in our exam-preparation journey.​
​
In response, I rescheduled my exam to the last possible date, giving myself time to regroup and refocus. During this period, I honed the practices and strategies that form the core of this course. These techniques are not just theoretical – they're battle-tested methods that helped me persevere and succeed despite unforeseen challenges on the day of my exam.
"Upon starting Yoga therapy with Kathleen, I had very poor body awareness. I have global semi-paralysis due to a neuromuscular disorder. Kathleen through her masterful yoga/other coaching has helped shine a light on feeling my body again and her luminous presence was teleported into my living room in every session."
