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 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.

Focus on yourself and your own healing after pregnancy or birth. This course is a supportive space to reconnect to your non-pregnant body and your sense of self.
Reacquaint yourself with your post-pregnancy body by strengthening areas that have weakened and easing tension in areas that are overburdened; including your pelvic floor, glutes, hips, abdomen, back, chest, shoulders and neck.
Parenting is overwhelming, so rest assured that you are welcome to show up and connect to the community exactly as you are. This emotionally supportive space is just as much about easing your mind as it is healing your body.
Open to students once you are a minimum 6 weeks postpartum, whether you birthed vaginally or by C-section. There is no maximum time postpartum - it’s never too late to reconnect and heal after pregnancy.

Are you yearning to reach overhead with comfort, bear weight on your hands with ease, progress your handstand or arm balance poses, or find your grip strength? These movements all require upper body joints that move well, and upper body muscles that can handle the load. Including a focus on your middle back, neck, shoulders, elbows and hands, this course will take you on a journey towards greater range of motion, suppleness and strength in your upper body.
Stretching isn’t going to cut it, so prepare to learn a lot, sweat and work hard, and find all the muscles you didn’t know you had. Sessions will include strong and precise exercises spanning modalities like yoga, calisthenics, locomotion and functional range conditioning.
Alissa loves how mobility practice can offer a foundation for greater freedom, strength, range, and resilience. Her mobility teachings have been greatly influenced by Leslie Stokman at The Branches, Cecily Milne of Yoga Detour, and Matt Thatcher of Rebel Performance with a bit of neuroplasticity peppered in. She is a Registered Yoga Detour™ Instructor, certified Love Your Brain Teacher, and obtained Neurorehabilitation certifications from Brock University.

Simple strength training for lasting independence and joint health
It’s never too late to start strength training! If you’ve ever felt unsure or intimidated about lifting weights, this course offers the perfect introduction — with clear guidance, a welcoming atmosphere, and a pace that meets you where you’re at.
You’ll learn to use your bodyweight, resistance bands, and a variety of weights in strength-building exercises tailored to your ability. Whether you’re brand new to fitness or looking to build sustainable habits, this course supports you in developing strength in a way that feels doable and rewarding.
A consistent strength training routine is one of the best things you can do for your joints, bones, and long-term independence. As we age, conditions like osteoporosis and osteoarthritis become more common — and strength training is a powerful, preventative tool. With steady effort over time, you’ll notice improvements in both your physical strength and your confidence.
This course will also discuss and offer tips for the full range of physical activity types recommended by the Canadian Medical Association. You’ll explore yoga-based stretches and simple movements to support safe warm-ups and cool-downs, building a well-rounded routine you can continue at home or in our drop-in strength classes. This class is a great preparation for our Strength Essentials Drop-In Classes, offered five times a week.
Beginners of all ages are welcome — including those with physical limitations. Our small group size allows us to offer adaptations and personalized support. Please note: participants must be able to climb two flights of stairs to access our studio.
This course is taught by Linda Collins, a yoga teacher and certified personal trainer who’s in her 70s. Linda brings not only professional expertise but lived experience of how yoga and strength training can transform physical ability, ease of movement, and everyday life. She loves sharing how she has much better mobility and less pain than when she retired 14 years ago. She’s passionate about helping others discover what’s possible through movement — no matter their age or starting point.

What is yoga nidra? Yoga nidra is a paradoxical meditative state of conscious sleep; a beautiful space where we may come home to our Hearts.
Many beautiful treasures can be encountered as we practice: healthy sleep cycles, release of old tensions, emotional resilience, intuitive insights, and even creative ideas to name a few… that said, what happens in your yoga nidra space is for you to uncover, and you can trust that your body’s wisdom will extract exactly what it needs from each practice—without any effort on your part. Yoga nidra is typically practiced in a resting position, so you may simply lie back, lightly listen to the sound of my guidance, and let the magic unfold.
About Kimberley Luu I’m a therapeutic yoga teacher specializing in yoga nidra. With healing justice at the foundation of my teaching and practice, my aim is to facilitate restorative experiences that help soothe the collective wounds which systems of oppression burden our bodies daily.
I began practicing yoga in 2008 and discovered yoga nidra specifically six years later during my graduate studies—a period marked heavily by chronic insomnia and exhaustion. Yoga nidra helped me find solace and rest during this difficult time, and has since expanded to support me through my creative work, relationships, community engagements, and spiritual practice.
After much personal exploration, I completed my Therapeutic, Restorative, and Yin Yoga Teacher Trainings with Felicia Pavlovic and Ante Pavlovic at Yoga Therapy Toronto. Soon after, I completed my Yoga Nidra Teacher Training with Uma Dinsmore-Tuli and Nirlipta Tuli at Total Yoga Nidra. In addition to my trainers, I am gratefully influenced by leaders in trauma-sensitive yoga, including Nicole Brown Faulknor, Sheila Singh, and Yoli Maya Yeh. My pronouns are she/ her.

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.

Focus on yourself and your own healing after pregnancy or birth. This course is a supportive space to reconnect to your non-pregnant body and your sense of self.
Reacquaint yourself with your post-pregnancy body by strengthening areas that have weakened and easing tension in areas that are overburdened, including your pelvic floor, glutes, hips, abdomen, back, chest, shoulders and neck.
Parenting is overwhelming, so rest assured that you are welcome to show up and connect to the community exactly as you are. This emotionally supportive space is just as much about easing your mind as it is healing your body.

Are you yearning to reach overhead with comfort, bear weight on your hands with ease, progress your handstand or arm balance poses, or find your grip strength? These movements all require upper body joints that move well, and upper body muscles that can handle the load. Including a focus on your middle back, neck, shoulders, elbows and hands, this course will take you on a journey towards greater range of motion, suppleness and strength in your upper body.
Stretching isn’t going to cut it, so prepare to learn a lot, sweat and work hard, and find all the muscles you didn’t know you had. Sessions will include strong and precise exercises spanning modalities like yoga, calisthenics, locomotion and functional range conditioning.
Alissa loves how mobility practice can offer a foundation for greater freedom, strength, range, and resilience. Her mobility teachings have been greatly influenced by Leslie Stokman at The Branches, Cecily Milne of Yoga Detour, and Matt Thatcher of Rebel Performance with a bit of neuroplasticity peppered in. She is a Registered Yoga Detour™ Instructor, certified Love Your Brain Teacher, and obtained Neurorehabilitation certifications from Brock University. Students can expect to cultivate mind-body connection and nerd out about our bodies.

Gentle movement, restorative practices, and community support for living with pain
Living with chronic pain can feel isolating and overwhelming — but movement and connection can offer pathways to ease and self-compassion. Over six weeks, this course provides a safe, nurturing space to explore gentle movement, breath awareness, and restorative yoga, helping to soothe the nervous system and build a more trusting relationship with your body.
Each week includes accessible, adaptable yoga postures paired with breath and mindfulness techniques, alongside optional group discussion to share insights or simply listen. This course honors your pace, your experience, and your boundaries — with no pressure to disclose or perform.
Yoga for Chronic Pain is led by Lisa Beraldo. She brings deep empathy and understanding from her own journey with Rheumatoid Arthritis. Lisa’s teaching emphasizes choice, agency, and self-compassion in a “no shame” space.

What is yoga nidra? Yoga nidra is a paradoxical meditative state of conscious sleep; a beautiful space where we may come home to our Hearts.
Many beautiful treasures can be encountered as we practice: healthy sleep cycles, release of old tensions, emotional resilience, intuitive insights, and even creative ideas to name a few… that said, what happens in your yoga nidra space is for you to uncover, and you can trust that your body’s wisdom will extract exactly what it needs from each practice—without any effort on your part. Yoga nidra is typically practiced in a resting position, so you may simply lie back, lightly listen to the sound of my guidance, and let the magic unfold.
About Kimberley Luu I’m a therapeutic yoga teacher specializing in yoga nidra. With healing justice at the foundation of my teaching and practice, my aim is to facilitate restorative experiences that help soothe the collective wounds which systems of oppression burden our bodies daily.
I began practicing yoga in 2008 and discovered yoga nidra specifically six years later during my graduate studies—a period marked heavily by chronic insomnia and exhaustion. Yoga nidra helped me find solace and rest during this difficult time, and has since expanded to support me through my creative work, relationships, community engagements, and spiritual practice.
After much personal exploration, I completed my Therapeutic, Restorative, and Yin Yoga Teacher Trainings with Felicia Pavlovic and Ante Pavlovic at Yoga Therapy Toronto. Soon after, I completed my Yoga Nidra Teacher Training with Uma Dinsmore-Tuli and Nirlipta Tuli at Total Yoga Nidra. In addition to my trainers, I am gratefully influenced by leaders in trauma-sensitive yoga, including Nicole Brown Faulknor, Sheila Singh, and Yoli Maya Yeh. My pronouns are she/ her.
