This unique class is for anyone who is on a path to recovering from physical or emotional trauma. The class aims to give participants tools to understand how trauma affects the body, to move through embodied trauma (trauma stored in the body) through movement. Trauma may seem like a loaded word, but it is something that affects many of us through major losses, accidents, violence, or other major life stresses.
Embodiment for Trauma Recovery consists of very gentle movements, simple postures from hatha yoga, and breath awareness. The classes are aimed at building a trauma survivor’s sense of empowerment and cultivating a more positive relationship to one's body. The class focuses on internal sensing and reclaiming choice in your body, and is less about form or technique. Absolutely everything in the class is optional, and the practice is beginner-friendly.
Based on the evidence-based methodology of Trauma Center Trauma Sensitive Yoga. Embodiment for Trauma Recovery is a group movement class. While this class is taught by a Registered Psychotherapist, it is not group therapy. As an adjunctive therapy, it is not intended as a replacement for working with a qualified therapist. Participants are encouraged to seek adjunctive treatment with a therapist to support the process of healing as needed.

Prenatal yoga will leave you feeling strong, relaxed, and more connected to yourself and your baby. Our classes go beyond simply modifying yoga poses. With an emphasis on strength, breathing, gentle stretches and community connection, this course can help prepare your mind and body for birth and parenting.
Each session will include poses that bring balance and alignment to your pelvis, pelvic floor, and pelvic and uterine ligaments. Through yoga asana, students can safely encounter strong sensations, and alongside that, discover the coping skills that work best for you and can later be applied to moments of physical or mental discomfort, like during labour and early parenthood. This mindful approach to yoga practice will leave you feeling ready for whatever lies ahead in pregnancy, birth, and beyond.
We empower students to continuously learn about pregnancy, the birthing process and early parenthood. Our practice sessions are grounded in a welcoming and open environment that celebrates the value of community as you explore this current chapter of life. This class is exclusively for pregnant people (not a partners class).
Beginners to yoga and any stage of pregnancy are welcome.

Tarot as a Tool for Self-Reflection is a practical, integrative workshop designed to help you use tarot and oracle cards to deepen your self-awareness. Through simple, step-by-step techniques—like selecting meaningful questions, choosing and interpreting cards, and journaling your insights—you'll gain clarity without any complicated divining. This workshop isn’t about predicting the future; it's about using the cards as a mirror to explore where you are mentally and emotionally.
In addition to working with tarot, the session will incorporate restorative yoga, mindful movement, and meditation to help you ground, relax, and tune into your intuition. These practices will support your connection to both the cards and your own inner wisdom.
By the end of the workshop, you'll have easy-to-use tarot spreads, journaling prompts, and mindfulness tips to integrate into your daily self-reflection practice—helping you better understand yourself through the symbolism and messages of the cards.

The class will blend playful and mindful movement, guided self-reflection through art or journaling, and guided relaxation.

This workshop will help teens learn relaxation techniques for body and mind, and will explore methods of getting to know and befriend your body. Everything in the workshop is beginner friendly, and lots of options will be given, so you can participate in the ways that feel right for you.

Does the mere mention of “back-to-school” in your house cause stress? Do emotions run high as September approaches? Parents and teens alike deal with the anxiety brought on by school and this workshop is designed to support families through this time.
Both parents and teens will participate in a short experiential introduction to the mind-body connection with anxiety. Then teens will head to their own space for further practices and resources to put in their “Anxiety Toolkit”. Teens will learn about what happens in your body when you feel anxious and what you can do about it, and will get teens started with building a repertoire of techniques to support emotional balance and nervous system regulation. Everything offered in the class is optional, and the practice is beginner-friendly. The workshop is welcoming to all genders and to neurodiverse teens.
After the intro together, parents will meet separately to learn more about creating a supportive home environment for teens experiencing anxiety. Children take their cues from parents, and even teens are strongly influenced by what is happening at home. We’ll review important milestones in adolescent development, signs to notice in your kids, and how you can support you and your family to build emotional resilience through the challenging transition to adulthood.
Part educational and mostly experiential, both teens and parents will leave with lots of resources to keep exploring this fall. This workshop serves as an optional introduction to a more fulsome program for teen stress coming this fall.

Drop-in passes and memberships do not apply to courses and workshops. Each course or workshop must be registered for separately
Courses: Our courses inlcude 4-6 interactive, weekly sessions. This approach allows for a progressive experience and/or a deeper exploration of topics. In addition, course participants receive access to a virtual course portal that includes recordings of any live-streamed classes, and a set of on-demand video practices and other learning materials specially selected to complement the course. To allow plenty of time to explore these offerings, all participants will have access to the course portal for 90 days. All participants will recieve an email a day or two before the course begins with information on studio policies, how to join a class virtually, and how to access the course portal.
Hybrid Courses - Many of our courses have the option to join in-studio or virtually, so be sure to read the course title & description carefully when you sign up. By registering for the IN-STUDIO option of a hybrid course, you may choose to attend each session in-person or online. If you prefer to attend all the sessions online, please register for the VIRTUAL listing of the course as in-person spots are limited.
In-Studio Courses - Courses with only an IN-STUDIO listing will not include a virtual participation option, and class sessions will not be recorded.
Workshops: Our workshops are single modules that either introduce a concept that supports your regular practice, or dives deep into a special topic to stoke your curiosity. Workshops come with additional take-home handouts and video replay access to solidify your learning.
**In the event of a mandated shut down due to COVID, workshops courses will pivot to virtual livestream classes or will be postponed, depending on the nature of the practice. Registration fees will not be refunded.
