Yoga for Everyone
“Whether you are a master or a beginner, you will love yoga classes with Kathleen as she guides you to expand and strengthen your mind, body and spirit. She is sensitive to my needs and abilities, carefully encouraging and challenging while suggesting modifications to accommodate my weaknesses. She helps me focus and relax while I increase flexibility, strength and endurance. I love to experience Kathleen’s gentle calm, quiet giggle and delightful sense of humor.”
I love yoga almost as much as I love dancing. I love introducing people to yoga because I know that yoga, just like dancing, can be intimidating if you know nothing about it. The great thing about yoga is that it is meant to be personalized to each individual because everyone's bodies are different. There is a yoga practice for EVERYONE. Sometimes you just need help finding it.

At the time Jonathan owned a yoga studio called Brooklyn Yoga. He is now focusing on his business, The FitzGordon Method, helping people relearn how to walk and sit in ways that truly support their bodies and rids them of-chronic pain. It's amazing how many success stories he has! He is on Kathleen's top 5 list of heroes. Jonathan has a diverse yoga background and incorportes in to his teacher training all the most pertinent information he's gained from studying Iyengar, Anusara, Ashtanga and A LOT of Anatomy. Kathleen feels so fortunate to have studied with him.
