working with ivy
I have invitation only groups in my loft on a semi regular basis please visit EVENTS for information and reach out if interested. Most of this page is about working with me privately and semi privately.
MOST PRIVATE WORK BEGINS WITH A READING OF THE BODY, WHETHER SITTING, STANDING, WALKING, IN MY PRESENCE OR ACROSS THE GLOBE VIA ZOOM, THE BODY IS A PRIMARY FORM OF INFORMANCE AND A GREAT AGENT OF CHANGE. THE BODY SHOWS EVERYTHING. IT CANNOT HIDE AND IT DOESN’T LIE. THE MIND ON THE OTHER HAND CAN BE TRICKY AS HELL. Everything in this life needs the body for support.
Ivy works in a beautiful spacious loft in Beacon NY. On old school phone when appropriate, (it’s Very Effective) On-Screen when necessary, and travels regionally and globally for teacher trainings, events, very special occasions and Private Work.

She specifically develops protocols for individuals, sometimes companies, couples, etc. based on what was found in the body reading and individual needs and see’s to it Early in the game, that students understand and have a viable at home practice, supporting not only their own growth/evolution but the work you and she do together.
Ivy Works with many that are not well and many that are :) No Matter what the circumstances, Ivy meets you exactly where you are. One of Ivy’s Strengths is in Assisting and Conducting in the DeConstructing/ReAssessing/ReDesiging and ReBuilding of Peoples's body’s/Lives, Individually and in Partnerships, Marriages, and Companies. Folks often find her when they are at the I HAVE HAD IT A STAGE, which is Perfect.They’re Ripe.
Ivy has had a TRADITIONAL MENTORSHIP PROGRAM for well over a decade with many young adults and teachers.
She also has a 20 HOUR PRIVATE EXPERIENCE which is an Extraordinary Opportunity for just about everything imaginable. Reach Out via CONTACT put 20 HOUR in subject line pls or you can txt 914-393-6896 open with 20 HOUR A breakdown of the 20 Hour is below. It also doubles as an Advanced Mentorship Program for new teachers finding their way, more seasoned ones seeking new material/change growth and often ones in Process for their Katonah Certifications which is a Mother load lol. It is an Extraordinary Opportunity for Instructors/Professionals of vast professions, seeking more, new, different, a reboot for their work, themselves. Their lives. Lastly its an incredible opportunity for couples and partners. Whether they find themselves at the Beginning Middle or End. Keep in Mind Ivy has also worked Often as a consultant in life and business.
ON THE 20 HOUR This takes place in Beacon New York. A SNAPSHOT: Ivy can assist you with housing to fit your asthetic and needs, theres lots to choose from. You generally arrive on a Friday, though this can take place mid week, settle into your spot, spend a little time in our town, and then go to Ivys late afternoon. We always begin with a walk, in my garden, on the grounds at the waterfall, along the creek, talking, silent, we then head to my loft where i’ll answer questions etc. We have a nice early dinner which she sometimes cooks. This is all part of it and sets the stage beautifully. People get more comfortable, they know where they are going to be, who they are going to be with and what to expect. And they have plenty of time to Give Voice so the stage is set. Sat and Sunday we work for 7/8 Hours each day. The Wrap is often the way it all began with a stroll or a hike and a nice circling up. Lastly, We have a follow up call within days or a week or so, to support in re acclimation/integration as being together is One Thing and Being back In LIFE is all together, another. Often folks stay an additional day after our time, to process/ just Be and to have a day solo in these beautiful parts of the Hudson Valley, as theres much to take advantage of.
“This is an Incredible Opportunity and I Love what happens with plenty of space and time with this level of intimacy, one-on-one. It is powerful to be seen, heard, held for that period of time. To be THE ONE. In my experience many have Never had anything like this. That Alone is a Game Changer. We Deconstruct. Reassess. ReAssemble. Many Women come to work with me, to Re find Re discover and some locate themselves fully for the first time. Most folks come with specific aims in mind, or after Great change or challenge, we methodically work and Surprise always happens” as just about Anything leads to Everything lol It also is a superb Opportunity for young or not so young teachers especially those training in the Katonah Lineage as its vast and complex and can easily be overwhelming or difficult to choose what your own Way within it all might be, which is really important for you, your health, your success and your happiness. I’m in my 26th year of teaching Privetly. I’m good at holding space, and working our way through anything you may want to know about the material and your own life. Lastly im super creative, so for those of you who may be Seeking their way in the grand Scheme of Things or Contemplating Significant Change. The World is Yours. And for this period of time So Am I.
Ivy has a program entitled GIVING VOICE, This is Important work and is essential for growth, wholistic health, sustainability and over all wellbeing.
“If you bring forth what is within you, what you bring forth will save you. If you do not bring forth what is within you, what you do not bring forth will destroy you.”
ON GIVING VOICE This has always been a part of the work I provide privately if appropriate. I formally established it as an official offering during the Pandemic, and now to ReSet, to Begin Again New and at any point in ones life to Pause, Honestly take stock and give voice to what you find. It is generally a three-part series. there’s much more involved. The description is not on the website. There is a very telling testimonial about this protocol under testimonials 4th one down :) If interested, Be in Touch and we can speak. This can take place very successfully long distance as well, beginning with an Old School phone Call, no screens, if you find we can’t be together.

LASTLY, IVY has developed a 6 month protocol for Becoming SMOKELESS. Please find me if this is of interest of you. There is nothing like it in the marketplace. And Nothing about you is left out of the equation.
ANATOMY OF A PRIVATE
Positioning is Everything. Most of what we find you aren’t even aware of. How you occupy yourself. How you move, where you are weak strong, over indulgent, non exsistant and ah the cadence of the heart, the sound and vibration of a voice, the tracking of the eyes, the nature of the breathing, where its stuck, how one responds to everything, timing, the numbers, the shapes, all the obvious included in The Fine Art of Repositioning as I call it. ExtraOrdinary Work. DEEP BOW to Nevine Michaan.
Your Biology is your Biography. And, its never just the hand you were dealt but always how well and creatively you continue to play it.
Our bodies contain everything that has ever taken place. And everything that hasn’t. This is where we live our lives, this is where Life happens. and as it is said, and is true
The Body Keeps Score/Trauma is Real. This doesn’t have to remain this way, you can level the ground, redesign, Change your Body, Which changes your Mind which Changes your Narrative. Begin Again. and Again. This is what we are Here For.Earth is the Learning Ground.
As children and through many stages of our lives, we have all positioned ourselves, consciously and largely unconsciously, to simply handle/manage life and ourselves, in some cases, this positioning saved us, and in most, it no longer serves. We re-evaluate our finances, our companies, and our relationships, we don't re-evaluate our bodies; or our positioning. Positioning is everything. This is the beginning of our Work together.
Having a personal assessment enables us to experience ourselves differently, in the moment, where we belong, in time and space, versus where we think/feel we belong, where we have set ourselves due to our habits, our strengths, our weaknesses, our unconscious choices and for safety. This is done pragmatically, via the magic in number and measure (The Lou Shu Magic Square) and much more, it changes where you are, in and about yourself and therefore changes Everything else in and around you. This is Different and Different is Good. It provides you with a new experience; a new perspective, with fresh and formidable fact based information, to be in your body with and to move forward into life with. It is from here, that i begin to create a specific protocol for you. Our work is apparent. I teach you how to work with yourself. I teach how to practice at home. I teach you how to use every moment of your life as the grist for the mill.I Inform Inspire Empower and If you do your work, Our Relationship will Provide great change, growth, healing.
We will work with Great Nature and Personal Nature. We are all miraculous bodies meticulously designed with individual specific needs, We are all human beings, with vast commonality, yet unique In our natures, our response to life, our our narratives, our specific damages and differences, our circumstances, and our voices and as times, seasons, and life change so too do we and so will our work. So We begin right where you are NOW, as this provides everything we would ever need and we bless it, as no matter what its been, it got you Here and NOW. All In an aim of Becoming more evenly developed, freely functional, safe, sane, sovereign, capable, productive, creative, powerful, as YOU, as Joyful women, men, she, he, they, partners, parents, and friends with great guardianship of our Beautiful Minds and Most of all; Souls, prepared for whatever Life may hand you.
