Get to know me and what Ido

My name is Cori & my brand is KOA. I identify as a trauma informed somatic and holistic practitioner based in Edinburgh, Scotland. I have lived all over the world but call Scotland home. In addition to English, I speak Swiss German, German, French. I have been married for over 24 years and we have a cat called Leo who is the love of our lives. I love being outdoors, motor biking, poetry, scuba diving & animals.
I am a trauma informed practitioner which means I make my offerings inclusive, collaborative and empowering.
I offer:
- yoga (vinyasa, restorative, yin, nidra, mindful, trauma informed, somatic)
- systemic coaching
- reiki therapy/training (human/animals)
-sound therapy/experiences
- mindfulness (advanced trauma sensitive practitioner).
- ⁠trauma informed yoga
- ⁠Embodiment/somatic work
I am a member of the European Coaching Association, reiki federation, UK mindfulness teacher register, yoga alliance and fully insured.
Many of you may not know that I have a full time day job & work in community justice as a social worker in a therapeutic and trauma focussed team, something I’m really passionate about. My role allows me to co facilitate groups, teach mindfulness as a tool for self regulations & work therapeutically with clients. I believe everyone can change & is worthy of support to become their best self.
