Sarovara Yoga

Hi, I'm Ally. I’m a yoga teacher on Pigeon Lake in Bobcaygeon. I teach a variety of styles in the Kripalu Yoga lineage. I lead Yoga Nidra & SUP Yoga.

My life's passion is yoga. My studio Sarovara Yoga is overlooking a secluded bay on Pigeon Lake and is conveniently located in Port 32 of Bobcaygeon. In the heart of the Kawartha Lakes, surrounded by water and nature, I lead Kripalu yoga with a focus on mindfulness & meditation. The word ‘Sarovara’ is an ancient Sanskrit word that translates to ‘a body of water deep enough for the lotus flower to

bloom’. Classes here always make for some good nature watching – whether it’s otters playing on the ice, herons fishing, beavers swimming across the bay or ospreys diving for fish! I also lead Yoga Nidra, SUP Yoga and my big project at the moment is my Karma Yoga in the park - Lock 32 Yoga

Thank you for visiting my page. Please contact me if you have any questions. I hope to see you on the mat soon :)
