This class is best for practitioners who have attended 5 or more Katonah Yoga Basic classes. With a focus on structural alignment, expect to do a few poses well - with stability, mobility and vision. Katonah Yoga is a 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.
