Katonah Yoga® was founded by Nevine Michaan, and is a Hatha yoga practice refined over forty years, blended with Taoist theory, geometry, pranayama and meditation. For more information, please visit www.katonahyoga.com. This training is open to absolutely everyone. Yet, to become a certified Katonah teacher, one must have already completed a 200 hour RYT training. For more information about this process, please visit www.katonahyoga.com

This deep dive into Katonah Yoga® is the first of its kind in Europe. Over the course of 6 months, participants will have the opportunity to hear Katonah® theory from 6 different teachers, including Nevine Michaan. Designed to integrate with layered complexity, the training will consist of several different modules. All modules can be taken individually. If taken collectively, they will then count as the required 200 hours of the Katonah Yoga® Teacher Program.

Katonah Yoga® theory gives us unique ways to align the body in asanas, using the body’s own measurements and geometry. Learning how to lead one another into the asana, through adjustments and assisting, gives us greater knowledge about the pose itself. For both the teacher and the student, adjustments open up new paths to understanding. It’s like navigating someone into a place where they’ve never been before.

A key element of this 30 hrs intensive training will be learning how to carefully align the asana to make your own practice more stable. We will focus on the adjustments, as well as using different props in the practice. Blocks, quick release-belts, blankets, chairs, bolsters and tennis balls will all be used in new ways, combining what you already know with the new material to make the practice your own. Aligning and adjusting, as well as the use of props, will all build up to a foundation on which you can create your own sequence and home practice. Working on the mat will become more than doing poses, it becomes a place for us to address the patterns in our lives through the patterns in our bodies. Only by becoming conscious of these patterns is it possible to change them. The insight can only come through conscious repetitions. The goal of the teacher training is to build a new habit, to repeat a pose in yoga refining it each time, so it installs new and improved patterns in our physical and psychological lives. Learning how to teach home practices will enable sharing these insights to new students going forward.

“Becoming Well Adjusted: Building Your Own Practice as a Teacher and Student”
1 week-long immersive retreat (70 hours) with DAGES JUVELIER KEATES

This week-long course will focus on case studies from our applied practices as students and teachers. We will explore:
– Specific Applications of restoratives/therapeutics
– Working with the elderly and with injuries
– Applied breathwork
– Subtle anatomy
– Asana lab with props

Yoga can be radical and revelatory !
Saturate yourself in the development of a versatile practice that can be translated and augmented through whatever yoga you already know. Learn how to use props and language to evolve your practice and teaching. Confidence is based on competency, which is rooted in experience and repetition. Gain confidence, refine your practice, amplify your techniques.

The retreat will take place at the Ferme de Solterre, an amazing retreat center located 120 km south of Paris, near Montargis. Situated on 2 hectares of land, the domain consists of a small castle, an old farm building, a swimming pool, an orchard and a vegetable garden.

The center has 13 high standard ensuite rooms, among which 10 are located in the old farm building looking onto the park and 3 in a 19th century house looking onto the castle and orchard. Each room can either offer 2 single beds or one queen-size bed. Depending on the weather, the residents will either eat their delicious vegetarian meals outside under the shade of the garden trees, or in the main house by the fireplace on a large wooden farm table. Located in the farm building, the practice space is vast, full of natural light, with high ceilings and huge windows looking out onto the gardens and the woods. It is fully equipped with yoga material, which will allow you to experiment the wonders of the Katonah® method.
