Are your emotions feeling like they are running the show? Are they sloshing out into your life a little more than you like? This practice will serve to help you find your container and stabilize your hips to help find the balance for your emotional body. We do a Katonah-based practice with some...

Having trouble feeling at peace in your body? Today's class is a strong practice (some Katonah, some flow, some Kundalini, some "Taylor Swift style" shaking it off) to shift how you're feeling. The class is big on backbends (dropback prep and optional practice!) and finishes with some handstand p...

Got some energy to expend? Come play! Today we tap into what gets us through when we doubt ourselves. What can you trust in (maybe even another part of yourself) when you feel like you can't make that next big leap? This is a Katonah practice with a lot of hamstring opening, including standing ...

TODAY WE GO TO SPACE AND PRETEND WE ARE ASTRONAUTS! We get really into exploration, especially in the hips. This is a mainly Katonah class with a bit of flow thrown in. We end with some some headstand exploration. (This is a great class to do on a day shortly after "Fostering Curiosity") Props...

We stretch the hamstrings to get unstuck from the ego and then flip ourselves around to see ourselves as the universe. Peak pose transition: Side plank (with leg extended) to splits and back to side plank (with leg extended). Suggested props: blocks, blanket, wall

This is a Katonah practice--using time and space to orient ourselves and figure out how we want to move through life. We warm up with some Katonah holds and then move into several minutes (bound by music) of the Moon Flow. We end with King of The Mountain. (Read: you'll feel like you really own ...

If you're feeling like a failure, or like you will never reach your goals, this is the class you're looking for! We learn to view failures as part of success, both on and off the mat. We explore contact in the body and work toward two tricky transitions: crow to firefly (tittibasana) and crow t...

Sometimes we get stuck and need a little motivation. Well here's the class to get you over that hump and to remind you that any discomfort is temporary. We get into shoulders and hips and you'll definitely feel it in your hamstrings the next day! Handstand play time included. Props suggested: wa...

I always forget to love myself; and yet, unfortunately, I never forget to be self-critical. Today's class is focused around training ourselves to offer love and care back toward ourselves. We start on the floor (self-love!) and move through the joints and body opening ourselves up slowly. We end...

Everything we manifest will not happen, everything we put energy toward will not come true. And how do we find the ease in the breath when that happens? How do we catch that little bit of anxiety bubbling up before it takes over? Katonah class focusing on core, hips, and balance poses. Props s...

This class in two word: Katonah + shoulders. When Patti unmutes and says I'm trying to kill her--LOL--but yes we stay with those shoulders today. Your whole body will get a work out, but if your shoulders are dying for some attention, this is the class for you. We work strength, flexibility, a...

This is a flow class, moving in and out of poses, with the opportunity for lots of extra chaturangas today! We are all about the side plank variations, and each one will help you in that quest toward patience. And, finally, we get to rest in a sleeping buddha pose (lower back heaven!). Suggeste...

This is a Katonah class where we ground and simultaneously expand. Hamstrings and standing splits and splits (hanumanasana) are here for you. And the whole time we keep saying "how can I ground amidst the craziness?" And whatever is swirling for you, this practice will help you center. Suggeste...

Katonah class; Yoga Journal and science inspired: creating spaciousness internally to unstick the deep rooted emotional responses. This class focuses on creating space in the hips, though there isn't much "hip opening" --but we focus on stability and space using our imaginations. Expect a little ...

In today's class we observe the somatic (sensory) brain/body, the thinking brain/body, and the ego. We start to hold all of these experiences simultaneously as a way to be deeply present and deeply at peace. Shapes made in class include a typical crow pose and a Katonah style crow pose. We get...

Today we really shake it out. Whatever trauma or stress has set into your body, we take opportunities to fully release and then come back into ourselves. All the negative aspects of our stress will be discharged so we can lean into our full capacity. We do a lot of folding and unfolding to mov...

Today we find a lot of revolutions (twisting) and then move into our hips to improve overall fluidity. We work to connect our 3rd and 6th chakras and expand our vision. The end of this class gets more technical with the Katonah method of half and full lotus work (which is why it is placed at leve...

This is a SLOW and LOW flow set up to help you heal. If you are feeling overwhelmed or closed off, this is a great practice to start to open back up. We start and end with a short meditation on how we can be our own soulmate. As we move, we get into the hips and some core and upper body strengt...

This is a Katonah-informed flow, where we really work on extending the breath to center ourselves. There's a focus on 2-4 chakras, expect some hips, core, and heart openers throughout the practice. We work flying pigeon arm balance and move toward some pincha/scorpion play at the end. Suggested ...

This is a strong Katonah practice: today we think about the back as a mitt, and the past as the ball. So the past travels into us and potentiates us forward. We start in a supported backbend and then move through a practice continuing to focus on the pubic bone forward to really substantiate ou...

This is a practice where we actively practice trusting our yoga practice. Trusting that it is there for us even when we feel exhausted; helpless; so consumed by grief... whatever it is, yoga has our back. If you're feeling overwhelmed, this is a practice to step into. We play with some flow, so...

If you are feeling an emotion strongly (whether it's joy or grief), this is a practice to lean into. We feel deeply, and then notice the temporary nature of the emotion, and allow that transient property to feel like stability. The stability in the hips transitions to stability in flying pigeon...

Hello, hips, stabilization, and contact! This class capitalizes on our ability to find heat in compact poses and moves us into Compass pose and Astravakrasana, or 8-angle pose, arm balance. We play with different ways to enter the arm balance, including by stepping right under ourselves. (Record...

This is a flow practice that focuses on highlighting your own sight and intuition. Viveka (interpreted as "clear sight" or "right discernment") is practiced through self-cuing the physical asanas. I direct the practice, but you use your own understanding, trust, and intuition (based in the techni...
