"In just two of Katrin's Qigong classes I was able to recognize the flow of qi! With each practice I find increased awareness, inner peace and appreciation for the breath. She never fails to guide me out of my thoughts and return me to the now." ~ Holly R.
INNER BALANCE QIGONG: Qigong (Pronounced Chee Kung) is a slow, gentle, holistic healing practice, rooted in the ancient wisdom of the Chinese Medical Arts. Qigong integrates meditation, visualization, mental focus, physical postures with conscious breath awareness. Qi is the life force, or bio-energy that supports and sustains the body and underlies everything in the Universe. Gong translates as accomplishment, or skill that is developed through consistent practice. Through the discipline of Qigong, one cultivates this vital life force, circulating the Qi to break up stagnancies of energy, cleanse and bring balance to all the organs and systems of the body. Qigong increases vitality, reduces stress, calms the mind, balances the emotions, bolsters stamina and immunity, and creates a deeper attunement with our soul and spirit. No prior experience necessary. Suitable and adaptable for all bodies. Please wear comfortable clothing in which you can move freely.
ALIGN & SHINE: This alignment based class explores foundational principles of Iyengar Yoga. Each class begins with breath awareness, to anchor you in the body and activate prana flow. Focus on precision, with attention to the details of structural alignment and integration. Poses are maintained for longer timings and often supported by props to assist with alignment and offer a fuller expression of the postures. Finally, experience the deep release of savasana to round out the dynamic practice.
An excellent foundational class that allows beginners and more seasoned practitioners to meet their fullest potential and shine! RECONNECTIVE BREATHWORK: This powerful somatic (body-centered) practice will enhance and accelerate your healing journey. Conscious, connected, circular breathing allows you to transmute the energy of trauma and provides a productive outlet for stuck emotions and limiting patterns of thought related to early life conditioning narratives.
Reconnective Breathwork creates a safe, supported space, so you can give yourself permission to bring what you have been holding under the surface into the light of your conscious awareness. Liberation is within your power. Feeling = Healing. Session Structure: Katrin will explain the benefits of the practice, what you might experience physically, mentally and emotionally, and then demo the breath technique. Next, set the stage in your body/mind/emotional complex for a dynamic energy shift with a short sequence of Qigong. This brief practice begins to break up stagnant energy and get the Life Force (Qi) flowing. Then tap into your embodied wisdom through this deeply transformational somatic experience that shifts you out of your thinking mind into your feeling, sensory body. Katrin will lead you through the active breathing for 23-28 minutes (Reconnective BreathWORK requires effort to work), followed by a “Soul Roar” or primal scream, to release any residual, low vibrational energy from the body and energetic field. During the final phase of the session, Katrin helps you rest, heal and integrate your experience with a Guided Meditation. |

"My first Reconnective Breathwork session with Katrin was a truly transformative experience. Two days later, I continue to find it takes less time to focus, center my mind and calm my body. Physically, the session was more intense than I had anticipated. Katrin’s skilled guidance and well-crafted wording guided me through a journey of emotion and release, leaving me balanced and light. The greatest gift of the experience is this newly uncovered path to self-love. I sought, and so I found. Thank you for sharing your gifts, Katrin." ~ Katie P.
