About this Event
October 30th -November 1st, 2026
Katonah Yoga® is a geometric, metaphor-rich system drawing from multiple lineages including Iyengar Yoga and Taoist philosophy. It offers a clear way to see the body, organize the mind, and inhabit postures with greater awareness.
Expect strong and creative physical movement, skillful use of props, hands-on adjustments, posture labs, restorative practices, journaling and meditation. We’ll also study the Katonah Magic Square, rooted in ancient Chinese philosophy & numerology, as a framework for mapping the body and mind.
Each day builds on the last. We’ll establish a foundation, then refine and embody the material so it can become part of you moving forward.
Open to teachers and practitioners, no prior experience with Katonah Yoga® required. 15 hours bankable toward a Katonah Yoga® certification and 15 Yoga Alliance CEUs.
