Real people.

Real change.

Elevate from the inside out.

Welcome to Kate Oates Elevate

Where movement meets mindset and strategy meets humanity, real shifts can happen.

I work with individuals and organisations to help people reconnect with themselves and show up more fully in their life, leadership and work. Whether navigating personal change or leading others through it, I combine a mix of strategic coaching, yoga and nervous system regulation to help humans thrive, at work and around the dinner table.

An Executive Coach and Senior Yoga Teacher, I’m also a former leader with 20 years experience inside fast-paced, high-pressure environments. My corporate roles were hands-on yet strategic, based entirely on understanding human behaviour.

I support everyone from CEOs to team members, to creaky-kneed runners, A-Type Achievers and ADHD freedom-seekers. I help people shift from fog and frustration to clarity, confidence and energy so they can bring their best to work and life.

Know yourself. Back yourself. Live your life on purpose.

Come exactly as you are. Leave closer to who you’re becoming!

Kate, The Coach

Elevate Coaching helps people think clearly, lead confidently and move forward with purpose. Working with organisations, leaders and professionals, I help people connect who they are to what they do.

Whether navigating growth, transition or uncertainty, I create space to help professionals explore creative problem solving, growth planning, personal changes, leadership styles, transitions and so much more.

My coaching blends 20 years of corporate leadership experience with accredited, psychologically informed practice. I bring curiosity, strategy and warmth to my coaching, with the aim to connect insight and action.

I offer leadership coaching, redundancy and associate coaching for consultancies, businesses and outplacement providers seeking a credible, experienced partner.

Kate, The Yogi

Elevate Yoga is more than movement. Through accessible, intuitive sequences, we use breath, strength, challenge and stillness to reconnect you with your body, your resilience and your capacity for calm and energy in everyday life.

A Senior Yoga Teacher with 12+ years’ experience, I teach with curiosity, anatomical expertise and genuine encouragement. My work includes weekly classes, private tuition, an online video library and corporate yoga events. I specialise in yoga for sport and athletes, and have championed Yoga for Men to bring mobility-focused movement and guidance for strength, recovery and everyday ease to people who don’t think yoga is for them.

Whether to build strength, find balance or release stress, you’ll be met where you are and supported safely and enthusiastically!

Throughout my time working with Kate she has boosted my confidence so much that friends and family have noticed a change in me, saying I am back to myself.

Kate encouraged me to look at options to ensure I could be more present with my friends/family, not let work take over as much and to continue to work on living my life in line with my values and what ‘fills me up’.

Coaching Client, Teacher

I am a former rugby player who had comically poor flexibility.

Adding Yoga to my weekly activities has been a game changer – I have stayed injury free and had significant improvement in my balance, flexibility and greater range in my injured knee.

I highly recommend Kate and her practice and wish I’d started years ago.

Coaching with Kate felt a bit like arriving with a puzzle I thought I couldn’t complete on my own, and leaving with the full picture completed, having done the majority of the work and actually feeling excited about what was next.

Kate makes me feel capable!
