Join Katie for an afternoon of myofascial release and meditative movement. This workshop will focus on the four layers of connective tissue and muscle that run through the arms, making it possible for us to interact with, manipulate, and respond to the world around us using our hands and arms. When out of balance, the arm lines can contribute to shoulder, elbow, wrist, and hand problems like carpal tunnel, elbow and shoulder impingements, chronic muscular pain in the neck and shoulers and more. More information and reserve your spot.
Join Katie for an afternoon of myofascial release and meditative movement. This workshop will focus on the Spiral Line (SPL)—a double helix-shaped pathway of muscle and fascia that links the body from head to toe and supports us with movements like walking, twisting, turning the head, and helps to maintain balance across all plains. When out of balance, the spiral line can create, compensate for, and maintain twists, rotations and lateral shifts in the body. More information and reserve your spot.
This workshop will focus on the Lateral Line. Running from the outer edge of the foot, up the outer leg, continuing on to the lateral hip and trunk and on to the side of our neck and skull, the lateral line balances and supports us front to back and left to right. It stabilizes the trunk and the legs so we don’t buckle to the ground as we move through our daily activities. Imbalance along the lateral lines can show up as a tendency toward ankle pronation or supination, can influence how the knees track, can lead to side-bending in the lumbar spine, can cause lateral shifts in the pelvis and ribcage, and can lead to restriction in the neck and shoulders. When balanced and optimally aligned, the lateral lines help us move through the world with grace, stability, ease, and agility. More information and registration.
Join Katie for a weekend training to learn the basics of teaching restorative yoga. Space is limited, preregistration is required.
Join Katie for a slow and luxurious Sunday morning yoga practice that will leave you feeling both energized and restored. The first half of the practice will include long-held floor postures and myofascial release (self massage) techniques to slowly warm and prepare the body and mind for deeper opening and exploration. The second half of the practice is gently active. The morning will conclude with guided breath-work and quiet meditation. Space is limited, pre-registration is required.
This workshop will focus on the connective tissue and muscles that run up the front and back of our bodies. Balancing these myofascial pathways can lead to increased freedom and health in the ankles, knees, and hips. It can reduce strain and compression in the lower back, free the breath, and dissolve tension that gathers in the neck and shoulders. More information and reserve your spot.
Join me for a 8-week discussion, movement, and meditation series on the topic of joy. For this series we will read James Baraz and Shoshana Alexander’s book Awakening Joy: 10 Steps to Happiness. Each weekly session will include time for gentle and joyful movement, quiet meditation, and a thoughtful discussion. All levels of yoga students are welcome—even beginners. Space is limited, preregistration is required.
Our bodies are wrapped in a vast and continuous matrix of connective tissue called fascia. In recent years, movement therapists and anatomists have identified a number of pathways that run through our bodies, connecting specific groups of muscles, ligaments, and tendons and crossing multiple bones and joints. Developing an awareness of these internal pathways can lead to a deeper understanding of our bodies and help us make wise and conscious decisions about how we are moving, holding, and caring for them on a daily basis. Through myofascial release (self-massage), meditative movement, and with support from visual presentations, this series of workshops will help you develop a clear felt-sense of our own unique fascial bodies. We’ll learn to lengthen and tone our myofascial pathways so we can move toward more easeful, optimal and balanced alignment in both movement and stillness. Movement instructors will learn to read bodies so they can better support themselves and their students with a wise movement practice. All levels are welcome. More information and reserve your spot.

Join Katie for an afternoon of myofascial release and meditative movement. This workshop will focus on the Deep Front Line (DFL)—a deep continuity of muscles and connective tissue that make up our myofascial core. Running from the sole of our feet to the root of our tongue, the DFL provides core alignment and stability and makes it possible for us to move through the world with grace, stability, ease, and agility. Lack of proper balance and tone along the DFL can lead to foot, knee, hip, or back pain and a collapsed pelvic and/or spinal core. Information & registration.
