Katonah Yoga Teacher Training
26 - 29 September 2024
Join Lisa Fraipont, the only Belgian Katonah Yoga teacher, for a 30-hour immersion into Katonah Yoga at The House of Yoga.
This training will include Katonah Yoga theory, active and restorative Katonah Yoga practices, pranayama and meditation.
This training is directed to yoga teachers wishing to add Katonah Yoga tools to their teaching repertoire as well yoga students wishing to deepen their own knowledge and understanding of this practice.
The training will be facilitated in English (with French assistance if necessary) and will count towards a 200-hour Katonah Yoga certification.
WHAT IS KATONAH YOGA?
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 implies intelligence; by virtue of repetition there is potential for insight. Revelations are revolutionary.
TRAINING CURRICULUM
In this training we will explore the main themes of Katonah Yoga:
- The body as a house
- The body as an instrument
- The body as origami.
We will play with forms: how poses and asana can be measured up with our own geometry to be more functional and how a pose can become formal and formidable.
Additional elements included in this training will be:
- Group adjustments and self assists with props
- Katonah Yoga breathwork
- How to sequence a Katonah Yoga practice
- Katonah Yoga restorative sequences
