About this trip

This workshop will be hosted at Mend Yoga. 

Saturday 12pm - 5pm 

Sunday 12pm - 5 pm 


*bring your own snacks*


We will explore: 


Learn Katonah Yoga theory + metaphor as it has served as the catalyst to exponential growth and well-being for so many teachers and students around the world. 


- asana, pranayama, and meditation through the lens of the seasons, sacred geometry, Chinese Medicine; how and why we practice for inference and information rather than performance. 

- body as a house 

- magic square

- hands-on adjustments 

- restorative set-ups for teaching a therapeutic private as well as cultivating a home practice.


Katonah Yoga is a style and practice that suggests that we measure up instead of guess, cross reference to find our blind spots, and integrate techniques learned through repetition and time that make us more radiant and joyful. The more organized that you are on your mat, the more organized you can become in your daily life.

This training is a continuing education course for teachers and counts as 10 hours towards pursuing a Katonah Yoga certification, however it is not required that you be a teacher to participate. Everyone is welcome!!


*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.

Meet The Teachers

Kate & Chelsey are deeply passionate about creating experiences within the class setting that allows for curiosity through movement, beginning in the body and transcending the scope of what is expected and accepted. They both believe that the practice is truly for every body and that material isn't just a one size fits all. With a combined over 25 years as both existing within their communities as both students and teachers, they embody different narratives through shared studies  - Katonah Yoga, functional movement, anatomy, and breath understanding.


Brooke & Chrissy will be assisting!

I had an amazing time on this retreat with Allison, Brooke, and Chrissy. The practices offered were just what I needed without being too much. I loved the accommodations, and the chef who prepared our meals kept me full and looking forward to every dinner.

Words that first come to mind when I think of my time at Mend's Salinara Farm retreat: Inviting, Serene, Nourishing The friendships that I formed can only be described as Genuine, Supportive, Encouraging, Connected This retreat exceeded all my expectations. From start to finish, this retreat was nothing short of transformative. The setting was a perfect blend of peaceful and invigorating. The yoga sessions offered a mix of challenging poses and gentle stretches and included not only traditional yoga, but also evening restorative and sound bath sessions. I had never experienced sound bath and will definitely start attending one at Mend. I was completely in a trance and felt revitalized and more in tune with my body and mind. One of the most remarkable aspects of this retreat was the opportunity to forge new friendships. Although some were from Mend, I had never met them during my usual practice sessions. Some participants came from all over, on their own, not knowing a soul. The shared experiences, from meditative sessions to group meals, created a warm and welcoming environment where genuine, meaningful relationships could flourish. I met incredible individuals with whom I shared conversations and joyful moments (and sometimes tears!), forming bonds that I know will last a very long time, if not forever. If you’re looking for a yoga retreat that offers not only physical and mental renewal but also the chance to build lasting connections, I wholeheartedly recommend any one of the Mend retreats. Although the location was A+, It was the intimate group size that allowed me to leave there with a new sense of community and connections. I want to thank Mend (Brooke, Chrissie, Allison) for creating such a nurturing and inspiring space. Your dedication to the practice made this retreat not just a getaway, but a path of self-discovery and shared connection. I left Sicily with a heart full of gratitude. Before I attended, I heard the retreat last year was magical. After I attended, I feel as though it was that, and then some. Looking forward to another!

This was such an incredible experience. Going on this trip really took me out of my comfort zone, but I have to say we really had a great and amazing group of people to share this experience with. Chrissy, Brooke, and Allison are some of the nicest woman I have ever met in my life. They are kind, friendly, helpful, and make you very comfortable being you. This was such a pleasure meeting them, and I cannot wait for my next retreat with them.

My experience at the Rose Island retreat with Mend Yoga was absolutely incredible. The overnight stay in a room overlooking beautiful Newport Harbor and falling asleep to the calming sound of the water exceeded all of my expectations. Every detail was carefully planned, from the delicious food to the restorative sound bath and yoga sessions, making the retreat the perfect escape. Making new friends and enjoying late-night campfire chats reminded me just how grateful I am to be part of this community. I can't wait to return next year. Thank you to the Mend family—you’re the best! 🩷🌈✨
