  • Support to Soothe: A 10hr Restorative Yoga Training w Alice York

    ONLINE - January 17th-19th

    Take a deep dive into restorative yoga with Alice York in this 10 hour training. Over 3 days, you’ll organize the body using a variety of props, meditate to get grounded and root down, and utilize breathing techniques to calm the mind and body. In addition to practicing the poses and embodying the material, you’ll explore the history, theory, and science behind the practice, as well as sequencing a restorative experience, whether to build or expand your own home practice or to share with your own students and community.

    Through this training, you’ll be given tools to better pause into the present moment; down-regulate the nervous system; introspect, reflect, and spark insight; and support the body with longevity and wholeness in mind. 

  • Muscle with Meaning - A 5hr Online Mobility Training with Ben Sears

    ONLINE - February 22nd-23rd

    Give your muscles a graduate degree and use strength intelligently. When each joint in your body can express itself without compensation from other areas, unconscious compromises are supplanted with space to operate.

    This workshop will clarify how to use muscle intelligently to enhance your capacity in Yoga postures and beyond. We will practice simple and powerful drills that clarify how to use and develop strength to access and support corners that are hard to reach, and cover essential fundamentals for maintenance of your articulations.

  • The Fundamentals - A 5hr Online Training with Cari Friedman

    In this workshop we will explore the rich material of Katonah Yoga’s fundamental principles. Using the pillars of sacred geometry, maps and metaphors, we will engage the imagination to organize and orient the body and mind so that we can develop great habits that hold up over time. The goal is for you to leave renewed, empowered and joyful, with the tools and techniques you need to cultivate a sustainable practice.

    Both days will include learning about the material, applying it into a practice, and then time for reflection and questions. This is for newcomers to Katonah as well as seasoned practitioners who would like to further refine their practice and knowledge of the theory.
