Ty incorporates metaphor and wide-ranging cultural references into his teaching. He is passionate about how language is to communicate, reconcile dilemmas and tell stories.
His teaching philosophy is centred around the use of a good metaphor that connects us to a universal idea, and believes that a teacher’s role is not to fix but to re-orient. He considers teaching part of living an artful life.

Katonah Yoga® is a syncretic Hatha yoga practice developed by Nevine Michaan over 40 years. She and her teachers incorporate classical Hatha yoga with Taoist theory, geometry, magic, mythology, metaphor, and imagination — in a practical framework designed to potentiate personal and communal well-being. Framing the practice, maps of time and personal space are defined and refined. Themes using asana as origami, manipulating form for function, and developing a sense of personal measure are incorporated in Katonah Yoga practices.
Katonah Yoga is organized around three principles of esoteric dialogue: all polarities are mediated by trinity; the universe has pattern, pattern belies intelligence; by virtue of repetition there is potential for insight. Disciplined techniques are organized for revelation through revolutions.
