We all have a pelvic floor and it’s extremely helpful to understand the functionality and muscularity of yours to make sure it’s working as well as possible, now and through all phases of life.
Pelvic Floors can be overly weak, overly tight, or can be affected by many things including constipation, posture, injuries, surgeries or tightness in adjacent joints and muscles. This can lead to issues such as bladder leakage, sexual challenges, organ prolapse and unresolved pain in the back, hips and glutes.

Join Ellen to learn all about your pelvic floor and incorporate it into your full practice to help avoid future challenges or alleviate current ones.
Ellen’s workshop covers all aspects of our pelvic floor, with the understanding that while these challenges are very common, they are not a “given” due to pregnancy or aging. Our pelvic floor is critical to comprehensive breath work and a fully engaged physicality. 50% of us will face pelvic floor challenges at some point in our lives so it’s helpful to learn and have this information as part of our physical awareness.
Through the lens of Katonah Yoga® we will delve into the anatomy and physiology of the pelvic floor, using the breath, body and imagination. We will work to acquire an in-depth awareness and physical knowledge of how to work the small muscles of the pelvic floor, and the adjacent anatomy, in the most efficient way possible to avoid and help alleviate various challenges.
You will learn how to find and use your full pelvic floor power, in a step by step manner, that allows you time to practice and incorporate the pelvic floor into your daily life and practice. Additionally, Ellen shares a pelvic centric practice to explore the mobility and strength of the adjacent anatomy which have a direct impact on the pelvic floor.
It’s “Pelvic Floor 101” giving all participants time and community in which to discuss all aspects of the pelvic floor.
The workshop is taught in a safe, supportive and joyous environment working together to find new ways of thinking about and using our pelvic floor. The class is informative, insightful, important and fun! Great for students of all ages and abilities as well as for teachers.
Ellen Sirot is a Katonah Yoga® teacher and is certified in Functional Range Conditioning and Teaching Yoga for the Pelvic Floor.

“The information I learned in Ellen’s pelvic floor course was life-changing. Truly. I recommend it to everyone.”
Kathryn
“Ellen's generosity with information about the pelvic floor and her profound belief in attending to this part of the body in terms of one's needs has been truly transformative. Ellen provided a safe space to gather information about a powerful part of my body and to gain a roster of basic exercises that I can do on a daily basis. Being in a zoom room of like minded women seeking awareness and control of the body was a wonder. Thank you! “
Katie G
“After a deep exploration into the subject, Ellen Sirot has developed a unique workshop on the pelvic floor. I, as a movement professional, learned so much, including the anatomy and how to address pelvic floor issues and how to strengthen and find more flexibility and control in the pelvic floor. The pace of the workshop is excellent, leaving plenty of time for questions. Ellen is knowledgeable, respectful and cheerful in her delivery. This workshop will have a long lasting effect on improving the health of my pelvic floor.”
Liz
“Ellen made me aware of a part of my body that had been long neglected and no doctors or physical therapist had ever talked to me about before. Her class taught me the anatomy, physiology and psychology of my pelvic floor region. I truly believe that the work we did will help me to avoid injury and to strengthen such an important area of my body.”
Laura
“Ellen showed me how to take control of my body and strengthen the floor that holds up my entire core. Knowledge is power, and learning how my pelvic floor works was incredibly empowering!”
Jackie
”I had the good fortune to have recently taken Ellen’s Pelvic Floor Workshop.
What an eye-opener! The information Ellen provided, along with the visuals, was enlightening. The information was presented in a well-organized, methodical manner, going one step at a time, always building on the previous class. Ellen is clear, open to questions and always encouraging! The physical work was especially fun! Learning to first find and then use the pelvic floor muscles was challenging, but Ellen encouraged us each step of the way, often reassuring us that “you will get it, I promise!” And with practice, I did find the muscles, and I did learn to use them at will. As we learned to coordinate the movements with the breath, and with Ellen’s guidance, the practice became almost meditative. I learned so much! I practice finding, isolating and coordinating these muscles wherever I am and with whatever else I’m doing! I loved this workshop, and I encourage women of all ages to take it.”
