Focus Yoga: Spreading the Ahh...Factor
By: Hillary Gibbs
"Focus offers a plethora of classes designed to appeal to anyone ready to "Feel Alive Now", Focus’ motto."
"Teachers specialize in personal attention for everyone seeking to take small steps towards doing something good for themselves. Focus is a community dedicated to supporting individuals on their path to health and wellness in the body/mind arts."
"What makes Focus studio different from other studios? Focus has a palpable feeling of welcome. Immediately upon entering the room, there is a sense of being home, as if someone has been expecting you to join them. "Katherine makes you feel welcome. I’d go anywhere she did”, claims long time student of Katherine’s, Deborah Gerstenblatt.
She adds, “Katherine Conte is an expert at her craft. She combines physical, spiritual and mindfulness into her class. She empathizes with her students, makes necessary changes and knows her art. For Katherine, I think this is a way of life, I think she really practices what she teaches.”
