Greg Hines
KATONAH YOGA INSTRUCTOR, BUDDING YOGA THERAPIST
Greg is a yoga educator, group facilitator and street philosopher. His work pursues the simple, yet puzzling question: What is healing? Greg studies numerous techniques to offer a whole-person approach to vinyasa, hatha and restorative yoga practices. From a young age, spiritual practices provided guidance as he navigated self-study and moral inquiry. An introduction to embodied yoga practices bridged a schism in mind and body as he reconciled personality and sexuality in his early adulthood. Greg continues to rely on the teachings of Tantra and other wisdom traditions to navigate complex social and personal paradox.
Greg studies with Katonah Yoga studios in New York to integrate the wisdom of Taoist philosophy, sacred geometry and Chinese five-element theory into his foundations in Indian yoga traditions. This imaginative and poetic framework relays insight between yoga practices and life-at-large through the very practical magic of personal power. He is presently undergoing the clinical year of a Masters of Science in Yoga Therapy program at Maryland University of Integrative Health.
About Katonah Yoga:
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 paern, paern belies intelligence; by virtue of repetition there is potential for insight. Disciplined techniques are organized for revelation through revolutions. www.katonahyoga.com
