Yoga has changed Marcy Katz’ life,
and she loves helping others to make a difference in their lives every day
through the practice of yoga. Eight years ago, Marcy gave up all other
forms of fitness to dive into yoga, and she has never looked back. The
diversity of yoga makes the practice all-encompassing.
Marcy has been in fitness since 1986, and she has practiced and studied
yoga for the last eight years. Marcy is an RYT, certified through the
Yoga Alliance, and she also holds an ACE certification. She has also
continued her education with numerous workshops and teacher trainings,
including trainings in couples’ yoga and Thai yoga therapy. In 2002, Katz
was voted Best Yoga Teacher of the North Shore in North Shore Magazine.
The body and anatomy has always been a fascination for Marcy. Her early
interest in fitness gave her grounding in safe physical practice, but it
was only through the exposure to yoga that Marcy moved beyond the physical
aspects by adding yamas - good intention to others - and niyamas - good
intention towards yourself - as well as the other ‘limbs’ of yoga to her
approach. In this way, Marcy’s progression follows the way many
westerners approach yoga: starting with a desire for physical benefit and
slowly opening to a more complete practice. For students on a similar
journey, Marcy’s classes are always a challenge to move beyond the merely
physical to experience a deeper understanding. For Marcy, yoga is a never
ending learning process, and there is always a humbling aspect of this
ancient practice. |
