I’m Caitlin Doherty and I’m a Mindful Movement Coach. I help people who have been left out of traditional wellness spaces learn to connect with their bodies again.
I lead group and one-on-one Mindful Movement for Misfits sessions for you to move your body, connect to yourself and others and practice self care on your terms, just as you are. Because you’re good right now and you don’t have to “fix” anything to care for yourself.
I use gentle movement, somatic awareness and mindfulness practices to help you find a home within your body, manage stress and live more joyfully without wasting time, money and energy on the empty promises that are sold to you through detoxes and fancy fitness studios.

If wellness and spiritual spaces leave you feeling excluded, Mindful Movement for Misfits is the space for you. We do connective, caring and healing work together so that you can...
- Divest from diet culture, fatphobia and perfectionism to find a place of acceptance for all that you are
- Create a personalized care plan based on what you need (not based on a one size fits all method)
- Stop fighting your body and see it as your friend
- Find safety in your body and build capacity for being with feelings
- Move your body in ways that feel good
- Dismantle oppression one radical act of self love at a time
How is Mindful Movement for Misfits different from a yoga practice?
- There is not a pre-determined set of postures done on a mat and you are encouraged to intuitively move around your space
- It can be done wherever you are, in any body and during any phase of life
- It explores many modalities of movement and mindfulness including functional mobility, mindfulness meditation, somatic awareness, self massage, intuitive movement and more
- It is it's own modern methodology based in movement exploration, nervous system regulation and mind-body investigation that allows you to delve into all of the layers of yourself, even the unconscious parts
What people are saying about their experience:
"My experience with Caitlin was really wonderful. She is so warm, understanding, validating, and truly empathetic. She really listens and works with you to meet you where you are and with what you need. She is able to help you at any stage and makes you feel like she is holding your hand through it and really supporting you. She asks challenging and important questions, when appropriate, that really facilitate self-reflection and realization."

"I joined one of Caitlin's sessions and it was one of the most comforting and rejuvenating experiences I've had. She brought an intuition and awareness to her class that helped make me feel so welcomed as a beginner and showed that she understands how to anchor her flow to what's happening in the world today. Caitlin opened with a message about compassion that gave the session meaning and intention. The flow was gentle and featured awesome adaptations to classic poses, and she helped adapt positions to an injury I'm recovering from. I'm so glad I experienced one of her classes and I will most certainly be joining more."
