Thank you for dropping by for a visit. Please take your time and look around. I am happy to answer any questions you might have.
The year 2020 was a year of enormous change for all of us. We were all forced to make adjustments that we never would have imagined. No longer able to teach live classes I transitioned to teaching yoga online in March. We used my online classes to support the people in need and together we raised thousands of dollars for our local health services and Food Bank.
Thank you for all of your support!!!!!
You seem to be making the very best of online classes. You are signing in early so you can see all your friends and catch up on the latest happenings. You've been sending me feedback
about what you like, what you're having trouble with, and what you want more of and I've been doing my best to give you what you need.
What's New for April - Mudras & Meditation
Vaccines are rolling out and some of you have gotten your first shot while others are waiting their turn. We are beginning to see a light at the end of the tunnel. The arena in Haliburton is being used to administer vaccinations from now until September which means our live classes there had to be canceled. Therefore April will see the continuation of online classes.
Yoga isn't really yoga without meditation. Our postures are simply one piece of the puzzle and they focus on the body. Meditation focuses on our brain, our mind, and the connection between mind and body. I am very happy to say that we will be continuing our meditation classes through April and we will begin to explore the use of mudras, or hand postures used in meditation. Mudras are a tool used to help us on our inward journey and
recharge and direct our energy flow.
March - Focus on Positive Thinking and Meditation
The days are getting longer, the sun is getting stronger, soon the snow will melt away and mother nature will blossom once again. This is the perfect time to begin to focus on positive thinking and meditation. It's time to plant the seeds for our future. It's time to transform how we think and open our minds to new possibilities by washing away old thought patterns and beliefs.
Join me as we create the future of our dreams.
February - Focus on the Heart Center
It's hard not to think of the heart when you think of February. For that reason, we will be focusing on our heart center, the Anahata. We will explore, our thoughts and emotions and look at the effects they have on our hearts and our well-being. Together we will unlock the powerful energy of the heart chakra to enrich our lives.
Our Accessible Yoga Classes have turned out to be a great way for me to better explain postures and give you modifications so that you can enjoy even the most challenging postures. In yoga we are always moving in the direction we want to go. It's about exploring your body as it moves into different shapes and stopping to notice the sensations along the way.
Our Quickie Yoga Class has been another pleasant surprise. These short classes are great for introducing new moves and sequences. Because they only take a few minutes it is easy for you to practice them throughout the day/week. This month will see more movement to encourage you to increase your heart rate which in turn will help to lift your spirits and nourish your brain.

My upload speed is not quite what it should be and for that reason,
I have adjusted the price of the classes.
Please continue to share your thoughts with me.
I listen and I thank you!
