It’s baaaack. Starting Friday, September 19th, join Jenn King every week in Little Mat at 9:30 am for Restorative Yin Yang. This class is a gentle mix of slow movement, and focused stillness, with lots of props and ambient background music.

It’s popular, and space is limited, so pre-registration is highly suggested.

Think candlelight, aromatherapy, a soothing playlist, and plenty of layers…or even pyjamas. Pre-registration is required.

Can we all do the world a collective favour and start normalizing sucking at sh$t?

It’s the way we learn! And maybe, if we all knew that sucking was a huge part of life, starting a journey anywhere (new job, new relationship, new hobby, new challenge) would be easier.

Watch for way more karma classes on the schedule this Fall.

The reason for this is three fold;

1. There are so many organizations doing amazing things in our community that need extra financial support

2. Cost should not be a barrier to accessing yoga

- and -

3. New teachers need a place to start, and eventually shine. A studio setting where they can access feedback from experienced teachers is THE way.

Demonstrating a shape or transition that is new or tricky is VERY different from a teacher staying on their mat and doing the class. Teaching a class requires attention to the room. It keeps everyone connected and safe. Aaaaand, there is another train of thought in the teaching world that cueing is more genuine when a teacher is moving through the class with the students.

Let’s discuss.
