Katonah Yoga® is a syncretic Hatha yoga practice developed by Nevine Michaan over 40 years. She and her teachers incorporate classical Hatha yoga with Taoist theory, geometry, magic, mythology, metaphor, and imagination — in a practical framework designed to potentiate personal and communal well-being. Framing the practice, maps of time and personal space are defined and refined. Themes using asana as origami, manipulating form for function, and developing a sense of personal measure are incorporated in Katonah Yoga practices.
Katonah Yoga is organized around three principles of esoteric dialogue: all polarities are mediated by trinity; the universe has pattern, pattern belies intelligence; by virtue of repetition there is potential for insight. Disciplined techniques are organized for revelation through revolutions.
In Katonah Yoga® we use a variety of props and hands on adjustments to support the archetype of the shapes we will be exploring. We use maps like the Magic Square to orient so that we can better find center and circumference, mediating polarities.
For this workshop, Sarah will introduce you to how we use the metaphor of a body as a house and how we use our practice to clean up and organize it. The workshop will include a physical practice, lecture and pranayama.
This workshop is for all levels, abilities and familiarity of Katonah Yoga®.
