Salve! Greetings from Italy, friends. It’s a new season and I can’t wait to reconnect with you when I return at the end of this month! The new Autumn winds are bringing a new weekly class, an incredible workshop opportunity with one of my favorite teachers, and new rituals and practices to jump into. A presto e buona salute,
Liz
P.S. Stay tuned for the October Free Pilates schedule!

ENTERING AUTUMN
Fall is the season of metal: what’s precious to us, what carries our communications, what holds a structure, what we return to after the sparks of true summer and the subsequent earthy late summer burn.
Containment, Protection, Novelty & Nostalgia
Both Air and Metal energies are expressed in the inner workings and activities of the mind, and in developing ideas, writing, and speaking. Degrees of mental clarity can be compared to Metal’s varying forms, which range from crude, impure, and dense ore to a shining, crystal-clear gem.
This season, we will focus on:
Lungs / backbending, opening and stretching, creating and maintaining space, meditating on the breath
Communication & Articulation / opening the throat, increasing lung capacity, clarifying our vision and how we communicate it outward
Emotional Balance / playing the ratio of joy and grief, striking a sweet chord, building and reinforcing the inner vessel before wintertime
DAGES WORKSHOP
October 10-12, 2025 in Baltimore
As soon as I return from Italy, I’m starting the final task of my Katonah Yoga®️ certification: a structured mentorship with the Katonah Yoga Center senior teachers.
And in an amazing stroke of luck, one of those master teachers, a huge name in the Katonah game, and all-around cool person Dages Juvelier Keates is hosting a three-day Katonah Yoga workshop in Baltimore.
I would LOVE to see you there — respond to this message for details 🖤
The one, the only.
