In Katonah Yoga, the chair becomes a dynamic prop — a tool that supports us in stepping out of our personal investments. It offers a structure through which we can reconcile and reorganize ourselves, awakening insight and availability for returning to the implicit dialogue: to meet oneself, tune into our strengths, and reawaken our blind spots. We use the chair as scaffolding — a frame through which we can flush our organs and glands — so that we function more optimally and inhabit a body that is well-informed to meet life with steadiness, solidity, and resonance.
Winter Edition
Seasonal Sound + Katonah Yoga Restorative Practice
Saturday, Jan 10, 2026
4 - 6:30pm - $75
Yogis and Yoginis, Park Slope
Join us this Winter for an enriching seasonal experience, as we utilize diverse tools and techniques to support dropping into deep states of embodiment.
In Chinese theory, Winter descends us into the depths of the kidneys, our reservoir energy of substantiation, reflection, and quietude, as well as our inner listening, intuition, and wisdom. The element of Winter is water, which can get frozen with fear, and it is up to us to transform its character and keep it fluid.
We use Katonah Yoga Restorative shapes in combination with overtone-rich sounds to support the breath with postures that use formal setups, hands-on adjustments, and props as boundaries to scaffold physical and emotional structure. The instruments join with this dynamic environment, guiding attention deeper into the form. When the mind and body connect in this way, breath and energy move effortlessly, evoking ease and safety, and inviting new layers of psycho-somatic release.
Each participant will receive a uniquely personal experience guided by three facilitators. Chemistry and neurology transform in each posture supported by blocks, blankets, and straps, accompanied by chimes, tuning forks, singing bowls, and gongs. Leave renewed, restored, and reconnected to a greater sense of internal peace.
Tuning the Instrument Workshop
Learn Hands-On Adjustments Through Katonah Yoga
Saturday, Jan. 31, 2025

$150 - Yogis and Yoginis, Park Slope
Learning to organize the body to be functional, sustainable and dimensional, hands on adjustments are revelatory. Just like an instrument, hands on adjustment helps us tune into our own physiology so we can take that information and transform that energy. A physical adjustment informs you from your habitual nature, your personal investment .Many classes are taught with verbal cues and assists, but a physical adjustment informs one's direction, vision and experience.
Through time and repetition of hands-on adjustments, our body's neurology remembers it, like a meaningful hug, and it begins to track that information so that we can return and find that landmark on our own. A stable, safe and grounded adjustment will inform and expand our possibilities and overall well-being. Our goals in practice are to be powerful in our options, to find joy, and develop a healthy life-long practice.
This workshop is designed for anyone who would like to deepen their knowledge and experience through adjustments. It is especially useful for the dedicated practitioner, teachers in training and teachers who wish to deepen their ability to support others through safe adjustments to further educate their students through their bodies.
