About Katie

Katie Mayeux is a skilled midwifery apprentice, birth and postpartum doula, folk herbalist, and internationally recognized yoga teacher with nearly two decades of experience in women’s wellness work. She began her midwifery training in a small village in Guatemala, apprenticing with a traditional midwife and ceremonial elder, where she learned holistic birth care grounded in herbal medicine, nutrition, and spiritual support. She subsequently graduated from the School of the Sacred Wild’s yearlong herbalism apprenticeship and has more recently gained clinical midwifery experience as an advanced student through the Maternidad La Luz Midwifery Immersion Program, during which she worked at a high-volume birth center. Katie spent fifteen years as a yoga teacher, which gave her deep insight into the body, breath, and the power of movement. She now uses that training to support pregnant families, helping them find comfort, strength, and alignment throughout the childbearing year. She teaches a prenatal yoga class in El Paso and is currently completing her certification as a Spinning Babies® Aware Practitioner.

To Say Katie was a huge asset to our birth is an understatement. Katie impressed the entire birth team with over 50 years of experience. Katie is more giving and generous than anyone I have ever met. She takes time to prepare herself and make space for others, instead of jumping in with emotions. She is a safe haven on this journey. She helped me physically more than anyone at my birth. She was there during each and every contraction helping me and compressing my hips. When it was time for the birth she was brilliant enough to catch it on film! She has an intuitive nature around everything in life, and that serves in birth. My husband and I are forever grateful.
