Rivertide Center

Rivertide Center Join us in pursuing greater mind/body awareness through Aikido, Yoga, Personal Training & Mindful Fitness Classes. All bodies are welcome.

Book sessions with practitioners of varied therapeutic modalities. We believe in self-care within the context of community care. If you’re interested in focused martial arts training in a welcoming community of like minded students, Rivertide Aikido is for you! You will learn techniques that employ circular movements, timing and blending to neutralize attacks with throws or joint locks. Your training in Aikido will develop mental focus, core strength, balance and flexibility. Our emphasis on a cooperative training model has proven to keep beginners safe and everyone having fun!

“Steadiness & Ease” Yoga classes focus on playful exploration of movement and breath. Students are invited to practice radical listening to their own bodies, adapting the practice as desired, and resting when called to do so. Physical adjustments are offered only with active express consent. All genders are welcome. Iaido is the traditional art of drawing the Japanese sword from it’s scabbard, striking or cutting an opponent, removing blood from the blade, and then resheathing the sword. Training is based on Muso Shinden Ryu. Permission to participate is given by Sensei on an individual basis.

says, please don't forget to vote today! Local elections matter...

For example, last week our neighbors in Hudson, to prioritize the financial and ethical interests of our communities, passed a Resolution Calling on the New York State Comptroller to Stop Purchasing Israel Bonds citing both the grave humanitarian situation in Gaza, and the declining value of Israel Bonds. Hudson appears to be the first city in New York to pass such a unique, divestment resolution directed to the Comptroller.

At Rivertide Center, applies not just to our bodies, but also to our hearts and minds.

Oh, Catskill 💗

The heart of our work is the understanding that we cannot ‘self-care’ our way out of socioeconomic injustice and the violence of the carceral state, and that part of community care is supporting each other in the broader struggles towards building the kind of world and society that nourishes and honors us all.

will be our official greeter at next weekend's FREE Wellness Practitioner Meet & Greet event Sunday November 2 from 11am-3pm. Image (to capture your attention, haha) of this therapeutic pup and the stone that found her during one of our walks. Inscription detail: "What if... everything you're going through right now is preparing you for a dream bigger than you can imagine?" I tend to be skeptical of such declarations, but she remembers her time on the streets of Louisiana, and how that time prepared her to mesmerize humans in with her own healing (and rather comical) gaze. More info in our newsletter linked in bio, or by checking out our FB event.

"Bunch of pink hat tree-huggers” -local community board comment on No Kings rally attendees in Catskill. Next we might be accused of having ethics and caring for our neighbors! I’ll be offering a special tree-embracing meditation in this morning’s yoga class in honor of our human and more-than-human communities, including our accidentally complimentary friend. See you in class at 9am, see you on Main Street at noon. Meow!
