This Is That Yoga & Doula Care

Hello there, I’m Katya Abramkina (she/her),
a certified Dynamic Mindfulness, Pre- and Postnatal Yoga Teacher,
and a Full Spectrum Doula.


My father introduced me to yoga when I was a child, and since then it has always been a part of my life. Years later, in 2013, I began practicing Iyengar yoga, diving deeply into asanas alignment, and the use of props. Iyengar’s structure and precision gave me a strong foundation, but eventually, I felt the need to move beyond linear movements. This urge for freedom in my practice led me to the Dynamic Mindfulness School, where Tatjana Mesar’s teachings introduced me to a blend of movement science, biomechanics, and Chan (Zen) Buddhist principles.

I live in Berlin since 2014. Growing up with my 5-year-old child. I have a passion to photography as I studied visual arts and worked as a visual editor and photographer.

My journey into the Doula profession began with my own pregnancy and postpartum experience, where deepening my meditation practice and educating myself on the pre- and postpartum processes helped me stay present and grounded throughout this life-changing time.
This awareness allowed me to navigate my own experience with ease, sparking a passion to support others through similar transitions.

That passion led me to the Sacred Birth Prenatal Yoga & Doula Training, where my desire to support people through pregnancy and early parenthood took its root. Later, in the Postnatal Yoga Teacher training, I deepened my understanding of the postpartum process and learned to guide others mindfully and compassionately through their own postpartum journeys.

Becoming a Full Spectrum Doula further expanded my capacity to hold space for others, whether they are navigating pregnancy, postpartum, or other significant life shifts. With my yoga practice at the heart of my work, I bring the same values of mindfulness, compassion, and inclusivity to my doula care. My approach is to meet people where they are, and to create a safe, welcoming space where they feel heard, respected, and supported as they find their own strength, balance, and ease along the way.
