I came to the yoga centre after over 10 years as a C.D.T.A. competitive dancer. After major surgery in 2004 left me unable to resume my journey in the dance world, I landed in a yoga space and continued exploring the art of kinesthetic movement. My practice of yoga quickly partnered with a meaningful relationship to that which was more profound than the shapes I was constructing in my physical body. By nurturing my sensitivities to these deeper, more subtle flows of energy, my life on and off the mat was (and still is!) transformed through the inquiry of yoga in ways that I could never have anticipated or imagined. My teaching style includes traditional yogic philosophy, asana (postures), pranayama (breathing techniques), dharana (concentration) and dhyana (meditation). I teach... Read the profile >>
I feel a deep desire for the practice of yoga as it continues to provide opportunities for experiencing my body and spirit with the eyes and heart of a beginner. I find comfort in feeling new again. My passion as a teacher is to encourage, empower and love my students through their journey, inspiring their inner teacher to shine through. My training throughout the years includes Partner Yoga with David Robson, www.partneryoga.ca in Toronto, Street Yoga, an organization that brings yoga to homeless youth and youth at risk with Mark Lily, director of Street Yoga, www.streetyoga.org, and Restorative Yoga with Hali Schwartz, www.haliyoga.com in Toronto, and a 3 weeks Teacher Training & Yoga Practice Immersion with Bryan Kest in Tulum, Mexico. Outside of the studio I enjoy... Read the profile >>
Fancy That- Kingston
At the age of 25, I discovered the wonderful world of fitness and quickly realized I loved all types of fitness. I began as a fitness instructor, teaching step and cardio-pump. I loved the participants and the atmosphere of group fitness; the energy is so unreal and exciting. After a while I started running and quickly became hooked. My running career began very small and within a few years I ran my first half marathon and continued with full marathons. However, just running was not enough to fulfill my fitness itch, so ten years ago I entered the world of triathlons. I joined Kingston Multisport club and completed many triathlons around the Kingston area. The triathlon community is so positive and very family-oriented. In 2008, I completed my first Ironman in Lake Placid, NY. The... Read the profile >>
I cannot remember a time in my life without dance. As a child, I grew up in a home where there was always music and the joy of movement. Some of my earliest memories involve being waltzed around while standing on my father’s feet and learning to Charleston with my grandmother. My father had to travel frequently for his work, and many evenings my mother would entertain us by taking out her 45 records from the 1950’s and teaching us to jitterbug and twist in the living room. Everyone danced at family events – as children my cousins and I were mesmerized watching the adults as they spun across the floor. You were thrilled when an aunt or uncle would see your toes tapping and invite you to dance with them. Dancing was a part of the social fabric of communities where people shared...

In my experience the science of Yoga is more than simply exercise. It is a method to purify and strengthen the body, open the breath, rejuvenate the mind, and to enhance every moment of one’s life by connecting all our levels of being. This integration of our being is what I hope to share with my students. I believe that if everyone in the world did Yoga, there would be no war. Therefore I endeavor to share Yoga with as many people as I can - giving everyone I connect with tools they can use to help themselves lead happier, healthier, and more loving lives. Being skillful in action and inaction is my current practice as I work to embody my truest and most authentic loving self through deliberate and conscious speech, thought and action. I endeavor to help students find their own... Read the profile >>
