In Katonah Yoga, the chair becomes a dynamic prop — a tool that supports us in stepping out of our personal investments. It offers a structure through which we can reconcile and reorganize ourselves, awakening insight and availability for returning to the implicit dialogue: to meet oneself, tune into our strengths, and reawaken our blind spots. We use the chair as scaffolding — a frame through which we can flush our organs and glands — so that we function more optimally and inhabit a body that is well-informed to meet life with steadiness, solidity, and resonance.
For optimal ONLINE participation, please have a yoga chair, 2 blankets, 4 blocks, a strap and a pole (broom stick is fine) available.
Cari Friedman O’Connor, who has been teaching yoga for 25 years, is a master teacher who combines exceptional technical knowledge with an ability to recognize and respond to each student’s individual needs. Her classes are inspiring, challenging, and nurturing, all at once.
After meeting Nevine Michaan (founder of Katonah Yoga) in 2012, Cari found her home with the Katonah Yoga method and has been teaching it ever since.
Cari’s meditation practice includes studies from the Vipassana traditions. She has deepened her practice through the study of women’s sacred rituals, the completion of a two-year lecture program with Dr. Shefali Tsabury on mindfulness, and by leading many retreats and trainings around the world. She is a partner and mother of two children who daily inspire her practice and teaching. Cari also holds a BA from the Boston Conservatory of music.
