Kate 'Lalita' Rabinowitz

Kate Rabinowitz has been studying and practicing yoga since 1972. She has trained extensively with BKS Iyengar, his son Prashant and daughter Geeta in India, and senior teachers in Europe and the USA, including Dona Holleman, Karin Stephan, Patricia Walden, Rodney Yee, Mary Dunn, Judith Lasater, Mark Whitwell and many others.  Kate has taught for twenty five years refining the therapeutic aspects of yoga teaching adults, seniors, pre natal and treating injuries.  After birthing her own children, now 10 and 12 she trained in Yoga Ed, becoming certified to teach children and school teachers in yoga and wellness.  She believes yoga for children is essential for this new generation, to give them tools to navigate the challenging times.

Besides yoga, Kate is a certified Natural Gourmet Chef from Ann Marie Colbin in NYC, and is a practitioner of Healing Arts from the IM School of Healing Arts. She has studied at the Ayurvedic Institute with Dr Vasant Lad in New Mexico, at the Kushi Institute in Boston with Michio Kushi, and currently completing training in Shiatsu therapy at the Ohashi Institute in NYC. She is at heart a traveler and adventurer, for years studying traditional arts and teaching yoga in Japan, immersing in India, living in a monastery in Thailand, trekking the Himalyas in Nepal, and walking alone across Tibet to Lhasa from Southwestern China.  She visits India regularly to visit her teachers and the temples in the Himalyas.

She now lives in East Hampton with her husband and two children running the Integrated Wellness Program at Springs Elementary in East Hampton for grades K-6 and teaching private and group Iyengar Yoga Classes in the Hamptons and New York City.
