Yoga

We offer private one-on-one sessions, as well as group classes in Therapeutic Yoga for individuals with conditions or injuries that cause limitations, Yoga for Athletes for more active individuals, and Postnatal Mom and Baby Yoga.

Class Descriptions:

Level 1 “Gentle Therapeutic Yoga”

This class is designed for individuals recovering from injury or working with physical limitations. The class is gentle in nature with the majority of time spent in restorative lying or seated postures. Classes will also progress to include some gentle standing postures. The goals of this class are to provide breathing and relaxation techniques to aid recovery from injury. As well as gently increase joint range of motion, improve posture and gain a greater awareness of body position and core strength.

Level 2 “Physi-yoga”

This class is designed for individuals recovering from injury yet wishing to participate in a slightly more vigorous practice than Level 1. This class will progress from the foundations taught in level 1 and will explore more of the standing postures of yoga with continued emphasis on correct alignment and safety.  Individual modifications will be provided depending on particular needs in order to ensure each participant is working towards their specific goals.

Restorative:

This gentle class utilizes supported postures and props such as blankets, pillows, bolsters and straps to aid the body in relaxation. These gentle poses combined with breathing and meditation techniques offer tools to reduce stress and promote healing of the body. Whether you are hoping to calm the mind, find rest in the body or just looking for some balance to a busy lifestyle this class is appropriate for all levels and needs. 

Physical Limitations:

Most students within the therapeutic yoga program are working with a physical limitation or injury. Our Yoga Instructors will modify postures as needed and ensure that each participants needs are met while working toward specific goals. Participants are encouraged to meet with one of our Physiotherapists for an assessment before joining the class to ensure that our Yoga Instructors are aware of all physical limitation as well as setting goals for each class to maximize participant enjoyment of the class.
