Build strength and flexibility in these dynamic classes. We start slow, hold poses for anywhere from one to five or more breaths, and gradually link breath to movement. We end slow with stretching, rest, and meditation. Always open to all levels.

Connecting to the body through breath, movement, and meditation can help regulate your nervous system and process difficult feelings while learning to be present in the here and now. This class uses meditation, imagery, and gentle movement guided by your inhales and exhales. Everything is optional - we offer you a space to turn inward in whatever way you may need. Show up as you are and know that all parts of you are welcome here. This class is for all levels.

Katonah Yoga® combines asana and pranayama from a wide range of Hatha yoga styles with Daoist philosophy and modern knowledge of practices for longevity. Or to put it simply: Katonah Yoga is a sustainable practice for sparking joy.

This class is alignment-based and includes a mix of extended holds and flowing from shape to shape, along with meditation and breathwork. Props are used extensively to support your experience in each pose, but that doesn’t mean this is a restorative class! It’s sneaky hard work for your body, breath, and mind. This class is appropriate for all levels, from new students to experienced practitioners.

Created by Nevine Michaan in Katonah, NY, this practice uses metaphor and analogy to weave together body, breath, and imagination. We identify the body as the abode, exploring the body as one’s instrument, the mind as the musician and the breath as the melody. The power of analogy allows the individual to use life experiences to define the personal and understand the collective. Kim Struglinski, Founder of Heart of Wisdom Yoga, is one of the only Katonah Yoga® certified teachers in Nashville, TN.

We affectionately call these classes "advanced napping." These classes focus on moving slowly, putting out little to no muscular effort, and taking deep rest. You'll have the option to use props (think blocks and blankets) to hold shapes for 5-10 minutes, allowing your body to relax and your mind to quiet.

Part rolling, part restorative. The goal of this class is to help you unwind, release tension, and prepare to rest your body and mind. Part of class will be spent practicing self-massage techniques with various sizes of Yoga Tune Up balls, and the other part of class will be spent in restorative poses to allow you to rest. This class is ideal for beginners and those looking for a calming, restful practice.

A slower paced version of our vinyasa flow classes. Expect to move slowly and mindfully to increase mobility and flexibility, and to hold postures for longer than you normally would in a Vinyasa Flow class. These classes are a great option if you're new to yoga, pre- or post-natal, or coming back from an injury.

Yin targets the connective tissue of the body, especially focused on the hips, pelvis and lower spine. Many of the poses are seated, supine, or prone, and are held with the muscle relaxed for at least three to five minutes. This deep practice is gentle yet intense, helping to release tension and practice staying present.

Yoga Nidra, sometimes referred to as Non-Sleep Deep Rest, is a rest-based mediation journey through the five energetic bodies, or Koshas, according to Yogic philosophy, into the deepest center of ourselves where our true nature is experienced. Occupying the liminal space between sleep and wakefulness, Yoga Nidra gently guides you as you wade deeper and deeper into the waters of your own consciousness.

Each class includes a brief period of gentle movement to wind down the nervous system and prepare the body to be at rest during the Yoga Nidra practice. Gentle movement may include self massage, use of therapy balls, a short asana sequence, and pranayama. Please come dressed in comfortable clothing that allows you to move and will also allow you to rest comfortably; layers and socks are always a great option.
