Do you know someone who’s always wanted to try yoga, but doesn't know where to begin?

Jenn will blend her passion for teaching yoga with her 20 years as an RMT to help you create opportunities to explore poses with openness and curiosity, learn about the use of props, and empower you to choose how your practice unfolds.

Amy is new to Halifax but DEFINITELY not to teaching. She owned her own studio while living in London, Ontario, and has an incredibly deep love of all things yoga.

Her classes focus on details, and creativity, and if you ever get to take a class from her on handstands…DO IT - they are her passion.

Find Amy every Wednesday morning at 9:30, and every Thursday at 5 pm for Vinasya Flow.

If we had a quarter for the amount of times this has actually happened over the past decade, we could retire. AND, it’s okay. It’s literally Tori’s job to “take care of that”.

Questions about memberships, transferring classes, software woes, class recommendations.
Text, email or call - she’ll take care of that.

We’ve all been guilty of pining away for days gone by; whether it was the ease of youth, a special person in our lives, a knee that didn’t click in a squat (just me?).

This quote is not political, it is the plain truth.

Memories can be beautiful, but if we get stuck in them, it harms our ability to enjoy the present, and our willingness to step into the future.

Yoga is a practice in being present - meet yourself on your mat.

Just about a year ago, we lost someone very special to On The Mat.

Henri was a gift to the yoga community, and was a friend to everyone who walked through the doors of our studio. Henri went out of his way to offer a smile, an ear, and thoughtful conversation to anyone who would engage.

On April 11, at 12:30, join Barbie Leggett for Henri’s Class - an Ashtanga Inspired, 75 minute Power Flow. Please come and honour Henri's memory, by getting on your mat and sharing your practice.

You don’t need to have known Henri to flow with us - we promise you that Henri would have loved to see you there.
