MEDITATION
Often, the stresses and demands of your life prevent you from being able to enjoy every moment of your life. There’s always something you need to “get through” or “deal with” or “fix” before you can finally follow your dream of living a life that is the fullest, most spiritually-aligned expression of who you really are... in your soul.
Do you ever think that if you only had more money... more time... a better job... a slimmer body... then you’d finally be able to experience the kind of happiness you thought you’d be feeling in your everyday life by now?
After all, haven’t you worked hard and done the best you knew how, every step of the way?
Just for a moment, imagine an end to that restlessness, that endless cycle of needing to “get through” something before you can truly begin to live your life and be happy.
What if you were able to fully express your authentic self—the core of who you really are—in every moment of every day, and therefore effortlessly attract abundance and radiate joy?
And what if it didn’t matter where you lived, how much money you had, what you did for a living, or who your friends were, in order for you to feel a constant sense of inspiration and meaning in every moment you live?
There’s a secret to creating a life that expresses who you truly are...
Now you have an opportunity to discover it for yourself.

This all-levels class integrates meditation, mindfulness, mantras, and breathing techniques to promote deep relaxation. You’ll explore mobility, alignment, body awareness, and flexibility through gentle, classic yoga movements—without the frequent transitions, because life gives us plenty of those!
Chair modifications are available for anyone preferring to practice off the mat.
DEEP FLOW
This all-levels yoga class is designed to release tension, build strength, and restore balance where it’s needed most. Flow through sequences that harmonize breath with movement, combining dynamic transitions and intentional holds for a full-body experience. Deep Flow supports myofascial release, enhances mobility, and nurtures mental clarity, leaving you grounded, energized, and refreshed.
GENTLE HATHA YOGA & BREATHWORK
Rooted in strength, Hatha focuses on holding postures with mindful alignment and breath. Through isometric holds rather than flowing transitions, we emphasize detailed alignment for each posture. This practice invites you to deepen awareness, enhancing recovery, release, and restoration in both body and mind.
YIN YOGA
Yin Yoga is a slow-paced style of yoga that emphasizes mobility and flexibility through long-held postures. It targets muscles, connective tissues (like fascia and ligaments), and joint range of motion. This practice fosters deep relaxation while enhancing joint health, making it an excellent complement to more dynamic forms of yoga or physical exercise.
REIKI
Reiki (ray-key) is a multi-faceted spiritual energy that can be used to help people with meditation practices, spiritual growth, healing relationships, manifestation of goals and activating the Divine healing power within all living beings. Our physical body is alive because of the “Life Force Energy” that is flowing through our chakras. If our Life Force is low or blocked anywhere through our chakras, it impacts our wellbeing and personal health. Reiki is an energy that works on the mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual level. The technique increases one’s Life Force Energy that brings the body back into balance promoting a healthier life.
The knowledge of an invisible energy that flows through all living things has been part of the wisdom of many cultures for thousands of years. The existence of Life Force Energy has even been documented by scientific experiments. Medical doctors are now looking at the role Reiki plays in the functioning of the immune system and the healing process (Canadian Reiki Association).
Reiki can be done in one-on-one sessions, as well as part of some of our yoga classes taught by our Reiki practitioners.
HEALING TOUCH
Healing Touch is non-invasive and economical; it can take place in any setting and does not require any equipment.
Perhaps one of the greatest benefits of Healing Touch is the extreme relaxation it can offer—it is not unusual for clients to fall asleep on the table. And when our body is extremely relaxed, it can focus on the important work of healing.
Research also suggests that Healing Touch:
reduces stress
calms symptoms of anxiety
decreases pain
may help to alleviate depression and PTSD
strengthens the immune system
enhances recovery from surgery
complements care for neck and back problems
supports cancer care
creates a sense of well being
deepens spiritual connections
eases acute and chronic conditions
Research continues to demonstrate positive outcomes for Healing Touch. However, please keep in mind that individual experiences can vary (Healing Touch Association of Canada).
