Welcome the New Year with yoga at The Forks

Join me on New Year’s Day 2024 at The Forks Winnipeg for some yoga!

I’ll be teaching a Mobility & Mindfulness class in room 201 on the second floor of the main building at The Forks (10-10:45 am, complimentary) on January 1st, 2024. It’s the perfect class for easing into the new year! Enjoy some gentle and slow movement to release tension, mobilize the joints, and to make room for the new. We finish things off with a guided mindfulness practice to help us start 2024 feeling grounded, calm, and present.

Bring a yoga mat, water bottle, and clothes you feel comfortable moving in.

See you there!

January livestream yoga session – starts Jan 8th

Optimism is not naïveté; it’s a strategy for envisioning and enacting a better future. Our words and actions grow out of our thoughts and beliefs. It is through a vision of hope that we speak up and create the change we want to see. How might this unfold, in a place like your practice?

OPTIMISM IS A STRATEGY: YIN & YANG YOGA

New year, new sessions: join me in-person for an 8-week session at Sport Manitoba starting Jan 7th!

We are kicking off the new year with 8-week yoga sessions starting Sunday January 7th at Sport Manitoba Fitness Centre!

There are two types of class to choose from; while each session will have different focuses, they will both have an emphasis on cultivating functional movement that supports our everyday living.

Space is pretty limited so sign up soon! There is a discount for folks who are already Fitness Centre members. Please see below for more details.


YOGA FOR STRENGTH
Sundays Jan 7-Feb 25, 10:30-11:30 am

8-week session
$150 (non-members) / $130 (members)

We are stronger than we think! This session will focus on building resilience (mental / physical) through our yoga practice. When we rise up to challenge, we show ourselves our inner strength and learn how to be our own cheerleader. We will explore how to prepare for greater and greater challenge, learning how proper scaffolding is what sets us up for feeling strong and empowered.

We will work up to playing at the edges of our comfort zone, and in that, I’ll offer modifications for postures so that you can find a version of the practice that suits you best.

 


YOGA FOR MOBILITY
Sundays Jan 7-Feb 25, 12:00-1:00 pm

8-week session
$150 (non-members) / $130 (members)

This session blends yoga and Functional Range Conditioning principles to maintain and improve range of motion in our joints. We slow things down to release tension, which then makes room for new movement patterns. This is particularly important for aging bodies (i.e. all bodies), injury recovery and prevention, and simply feeling comfortable in yourself.

I offer options to dial up / down the intensity so that you can make the practice work for your needs. Sometimes taking a step back is the more challenging choice; sometimes taking baby steps is just the right fit. Learning to adjust the practice to suit you is a key component to self-stewardship.

December livestream yoga session – starts Dec 4th

As we near the end of another year, it can feel both natural and uncomfortable to slow down. Can our practice show us how we can hold space for the multilayers of the human experience?

Please note that Dec 25th will be a 75-min recording, instead of the usual 60-min live class. The recording will consist of a 45-min active (Yang) practice and a 30-min restorative (Yin) practice. It is designed so that you could do the full practice or just its parts, depending on your wishes. Please note that access to this recording will be extended to 14 days (until Jan 8th).
