Katie is offering a free Katonah yoga class Saturday, January 10th

Katonah yoga® is a syncretic form of Hatha yoga. We incorporate metaphor, functional movement, and principles from Taoism, geometry, and math. The focus is on availability rather than flexibility— and the process of making the body more available takes repetition, technique, and time.
