Yoga Shala - Spokane Wa. Our Mission: To promote the study and practice of Ashtanga yoga as a discipline in and of itself, or as a supplement to life’s other passions.

In 2003, Katie Cooley, a former World Champion rower, opened City Yoga in downtown Spokane. Her goal was to create a school where people could study and practice Ashtanga yoga as a discipline in and of itself, or as a supplement to life’s other passions.

Katie competed in the sport of rowing in college and then after on the US Team. She was also a Division 1, varsity coach both at the University of New Hampshire and the University of Virginia before moving to Spokane, WA. “I was immediately drawn to Ashtanga when I was getting ready to retire from rowing, because of my athletic background – it was hard – and that of course appealed to me,” she smiles, “I had no idea how much yoga would teach me to soften and go easier on myself, but that came later.”
