  • Working with Props: A 5hr Online Training w Josie Schweitzer

    ONLINE - April 27th + 28th

    A two day 5 hour exploration in using props to support yourself and others. When we learn to bolster ourselves first, we can more easily extend this outward.

    Day one will be about using props on yourself and how to cultivate a home practice using props.

    On day two we’ll focus on using props with others and how to incorporate using props in group classes as well as 1:1s.

  • It Takes Two : A 5hr Adjustments Training w Sara Sara Blumenkranz

    ONLINE - May 4th + 5th

    Join Sara Blumenkranz in this two part workshop to learn and implement the art of a quality adjustment that builds meaningful connections with loved ones through yoga.

    We'll explore Room 3 in the Magic Square which holds the key to articulation and involves two coming together to create a third. In this workshop, we'll focus on using postures as our dialogue and adjustments as our conversation to refine how you make contact.

    Join with your spouse, partner, friend, or family member.

  • Spring Renewal: A 5hr Restorative Yoga Training w Alice York

    ONLINE - May 11th + 12th

    Within the container of this 5 hour training, you’ll take a dive into the practice of restorative yoga, focusing on how to better organize the body to find good rest and reformation and to soothe the mind.

    You will learn how to incorporate Katonah Yoga philosophy, theory, prop setups, pranayama, and meditation techniques throughout the two days together. See what personal insights form, what physiological and nervous system shifts occur, and what else unfolds as you allow yourself to unwind.

  • Be Prepared: A 5hr Workshop on MAP MAKING w Olivia Falcon

    ONLINE - May 18th + 19th

    Begin where you are, in the middle! Together we’ll build a realm that you eventually travel through, mentally and physically. Using old materials that are readily available to you we’ll play with our ideas and visions directly and begin to place them intentionally so that we can better understand where we are, where we want to go, and how we’re going to get there.

    On day one you can expect some asana, referencing maps and sorting through our materials. On day two we’ll open with breathwork then begin assembling the territory.

  • 30hr In Person Katonah Yoga Training w Nevine, Melanie, Harriet, Marco + more guest teachers

    IN PERSON - May 23rd-27th

    This training will include Katonah Yoga theory, active and restorative practices, meditations, workshops and conversation. Each day we will move through physical practices with various teachers; breathing and theory sessions with Nevine.⁠

    Learn and refine tools to measure up. Play well with yourself and others through concentration and radiance.⁠ Use the Katonah Yoga material well and build insight personally and in community.We are looking forward to being with you.⁠

  • Peering Through the Window: A 2hr Workshop w Paul Beckwith

    ONLINE - June 15th

    In this 2hr workshop we’ll be looking forward from spring to summer through room 4, the bedroom. A place where you begin to visualize what you want your future goals to be. Weaving your narrative thread through the magic square with meditations and journaling, revelations come from moving through time and space and engaging with your imagination.

    We’ll clear our bedroom with breathwork which affects neurology and in turn, neurology affects vision. By opening our window to get fresh air in, it removes stale air and lets our visions for the future become more tangible as we step into summer. Bring a notebook, journal, sketchbook, pens, pencils, water colors, any medium that will help you see just a little bit clearer.

  • Foundations of Katonah Yoga - Decoding the Material: A 40hr Training with Marco Migliavacca + Melanie Hyman

    ONLINE - October 5th-December 1st

    Explore the foundational concepts that form the basis of Katonah Yoga. Weekly classes with Melanie and Marco , included in the training, will allow you to deepen your practice and process the material over time. Spend two hours/week practicing and experiencing how they use their own styles to apply principles of Katonah Yoga into fluid, rigorous and intelligent movement.

    Whether you are a student wanting to deepen your practice, a teacher looking for new tools to assist your students, or a practitioner stuck with an injury, this experience will give you new knowledge, inspiration and perspective.
