“Kate Rose knows to communicate very clearly what can be perceived if we dare trust our ability to feel. She does this in a no-nonsense way, with a lot of humor and drawing from her rich personal experience. Her workshops offer new entry-ways for everyone .”

I met Kate Rose in myLevel 1 Trager®  Training in January 2006.Since then I have been with her in several training weeks, also as an assistant.I am very enthusiastic about her work and teachings and the way she presents it to people.Words that pop up in my mind are: go with the flow, creating a balanced and smooth learning environment, spreading trust and peace.Kate knows how to reach people, especially when you’re having a hard time in your learning process. She’s capable of tuning into individuals and the group in  a way that everybody’s needs are met. She gives you the trust, that inside everyone is a diamond filled with gifts and talents. She has a very soft and gentle way of enclosing these gifts and talents.

My personal life has been enriched knowing her, being with her, mailing with her!

We invited her to come to the Northern part of Holland to give an introduction to her workshop,  “The Choice to Feel™”. Within a fortnight the introduction was sold out! In this workshop she shared her knowledge, talents and experiences gathered during her impressive career in the area of “Healing Arts”.I am very much looking forward being part of the introduction and the workshop and wish lots of people will benefit from it.

Kate’s approach to health and life are inspiring to me. She is a gentle person with a great deal of knowledge and a desire to share that knowledge. She is a healer to whom I turn when faced with challenging health and/or emotional issues that more conventional medical healers can’t or won’t address. Most recently she helped me with recovery after a brain hemorrhage! This involved listening as I recounted the experiences I’d had while in the hospital, encouraging me to share my story so that others could benefit, and reminding me of my own healing power to use in the days ahead.

“The most important thing I took from the workshop was that for the first time I really felt the divine part in myself. In the exercise where we touched our own hands to each other, I felt my Self and my Self touched me. That was wonderful. I knew that I (and everyone) had it in me but now I have felt it and that is great wealth.”

Breathing is what Kate’s work is all about—bringing breath to your skin and to every muscle and nerve and vessel in between. She does this with hands on touch, by sight and sound and sometimes  with smells too… I have learned to breathe because of her.

Working with Kate is a lifeline to sensations, both “good and bad”, as I used to call them, but now I just call them emotions. What she offered me had the substance of spirit and truth and no-nonsense compassion that lured me on.

I met Kate after spending 6 weeks in bed. Initially diagnosed with with a virus, I had just been diagnosed with an underlying depressions.

After my first session with Kate, I felt at peace, a feeling that she said I could access anytime I wanted. As I was on an emotional vacation in hell, I was comforted with the hope that I would learn how to access the calm that she lives to share. I learned that a full life was experienced by identifying each emotion and for me, breathing or dancing or just sitting as I lived through them and into them.

Kate’s shamanic/psychologist like approach to health and my embrace of it was the real miracle. I expressed visions, (as I am very visually oriented) to her which were perfectly okay with her. I learned that her enormous spiritual vocabulary had plenty of room for my sights and sounds. More meaningful than that, she encouraged my artistic expression of this path. I drew the visions that were the most important to me, and she was exultant in my progress and in willingness to go into the maw of darkness, and sometimes her enthusiasm carried me over when I thought I had no more energy or desire of my own. What I discovered was that the progress, the trip into the dark corners of my mind was possible when a safe guide was alongside.

Kate Rose is amazing!  I have been a Trager® practitioner since 1990 and, in a recent tutorial, my first with Kate, I had asked to learn to take my Trager® work deeper.  She conveyed that ‘deeper’ feeling beautifully.  Her patience in staying with me until I ‘got it’ has made all the difference in sessions I now give.

My national certification as a bodyworker was up for renewal and I needed hours.  I came to learn more techniques to dazzle my clients with.  What I received were ways to go deeper into my work by letting go of the outcome and the performance.  Kate walked through my resistance of letting go with ease to somehow find softer, easier ways to reach me.  Kate is a gifted healer as well as a teacher.   For 5 years, my lower left abdominal area had been numb from surgeries.  In our class practice, I regained nerve sensation in my abdominal area after Kate worked on the area.  And now I’m dazzled.

I have been an Instructor for the Trager® Institute for twenty years.  I have experienced Kate Rose as a student of mine, and more lately as a co-teaching partner.  In my estimation she is one of the most heartful, grounded and articulate individuals I have ever had the privilege to work with.  I cannot recommend too highly working with her for any student interested in deepening their bodywork skills, the opening of their hearts, and adding a dimension to their spiritual journey.  And stay posted: Kate and I have plans to co-teach as much as possible in the future!
