What should students expect from your class?

High energy with proper form & proper yoga etiquette.

About Me

I am an avid outdoor enthusiast. I was introduced to hot yoga by my girlfriend who knew that I love to take up any physical challenge. I started practicing hot yoga in 2002 and there was no turning back. After two years of consistent practice, I decided to take my teacher training in 2004. I found persistent practice helped me recover from a bicycle accident and also a hip replacement surgery. My choice of service is to help others and I want to share the gifts of this powerful practice with as many people as possible and inspire them to be better yogis! I have also completed Core 40 training, hot Pilates, Yin yoga training and in an effort to become a better teacher.

What should students expect from your class?

A focused, and inspired, yoga practice that will nourish your body, mind, and spirit.

About Me

I am trained in traditional Hatha Yoga, with certification in Trauma Sensitive and Pre & Postnatal Yoga. I have studied with Swami Muktibodhananda, Swami Mahesh and am currently studying Ayurveda and Yoga with Dr. David Frawley (Pandit Vamadeva Shastri) at the American Institute of Vedic Studies. I weave the wisdom of Ayurveda and the eight limbs of yoga into my classes, in a way that students can relate to and apply in their daily life.

My classes focus on restoring one’s energy, calming the mind, and strengthening one’s body, while providing a sacred space to connect with one’s higher Self.

What should students expect from your class?

Expect to be challenged as I emphasize breath and alignment to create a safe place for you to explore the mind-body connection and playfully make shapes with your body.

About Me

My practice and teaching are rooted in the Ashtanga and Iyengar traditions, placing intentional focus on breath and alignment. My offerings flow from the belief that yoga is an all-encompassing experience and serves as a moving meditation of openness, cleansing, and healing for the mind, body, and spirit. The combination of my dance background, passion for yoga, and innate desire to share this knowledge has been a powerful catalyst fueling my aspiration to teach yoga. 

I completed my 200-Hour YTT and YHot Training in 2018 and 2019, and have been teaching ever since. Yoga has become my anchor, connecting me to life, breath, and self-awareness. It continues to teach me to move past the discomfort through acceptance and perseverance, leading to inner strength, grounding, and peace. In my classes, you can expect a playful yet challenging practice that allows students to cultivate confidence while exploring the mind-body connection. Guiding others in this empowering practice feels like a daily blessing, and I aim to create more space in the lives of those around me, as together, we find balance within.

Energetic and meaningful movement.

About Me

My background is in fitness and nutrition and I have been teaching yoga since 2007. I hold a Bachelor degree of Science in Nutrition and Education. I believe that health and wellness are of utmost importance. As an educator, I know that learning never ends. Through study and experience, I have learned that the body and mind must work together, harmoniously. In my classes, I hope to teach through stories and give my students the opportunity to have an experience that instills personal growth and tools, which they can use to support their journey in life. When off her mat, you can find me outdoors either biking, hiking or running with my dog, Charlie.

What should students expect from your class?

Expect to find the balance between strength and ease with insightful alignment cues and inspiring options for all levels.

About Me

I first stepped onto my mat in a hot yoga room to develop a consistent fitness routine. A few years later, I discovered YYoga and its many offerings, and immediately connected with the Hatha practice. I enjoyed the refined hold in each posture that allowed me to tune into my body, breath, and mind. I decided to deepen my knowledge and practice by signing up for the 200-hour YTT at YYoga, and was fortunate enough to be under the guidance of Jasmina Egeler and Kate Gillespie. Today, I bring my passion for the Hatha practice to students in various community centres and studios. I believe that yoga is for everyone and every body, so join me on the mat and enjoy steady breaths and mindful movements.

What should students expect from your class?

An alignment-based practice that encourages you to open your mind to the possibility of transformation.

About Me

I started teaching yoga in 2008, and shortly after I began I left my job in the healthcare field. My teaching career has been mostly based out of Vancouver but I have also taught overseas in Asia for a short period of time as well. I teach an alignment-based practice that is dynamic and accessible for students of all levels. I encourage you to move at your own pace and to listen to how your body is feeling at that moment in time. I provide a safe and welcoming space for my students to explore their own practice and to dive a little deep into their own self-journey. My hopes are for you to leave my class feeling empowered and motivated to continue on in your yoga journey, and to embrace living a peaceful life both on and off your mat. I look forward to seeing you in my class.

What should students expect from your class?

Students can expect a dynamic, alignment based Vinyasa flow designed to be inclusive and empowering. Expect lots of breath inspired movements, heart openers, and arm balance opportunities, all complemented with a slow, sweet cool down.

About Me

I studied with the incomparable Daniel Clement to obtain my 240 hour teacher training certification in 2011. I have trained with Yyoga’s mentorship program under the tutelage of Clara Roberts-Oss, completed Leslie Kaminoff and Amy Matthews’s Yoga Anatomy program via Pacific Elements, and studied meditation with Carlos Pomeda. I have been leading classes at Yyoga since 2014 and I am a member of the Yyoga teacher training faculty.

For me, Yoga offers a safe space to practice discernment and loving acceptance. The physical practice offers me insight from a truthful place and those discoveries from the mat are what make me the awesome, work in progress human that I am today. I believe Yoga is a dedicated daily practice, the purpose of which is not to change us, but to reveal our highest self and to remind of us of our deep and abiding connection to one another.

What should students expect from your class?

An authentic experience that’s both challenging and fun, yet precise and dynamic.

About Me

As a native British Columbian, my roots are grounded in the rolling hills of the Okanagan Valley. Innately raised with a passion for fitness and health, I began my true journey towards complete body wellness at the age of sixteen. Channeling a fulfillment of my desire to nurture others, I began teaching freestyle dance, as a way to connect creativity with the fluidity of the body.

Along my travels to different corners of the world, I gained a deeper respect for the practice of yoga. Through the teachings of Don and Amba Stapleton, at the Nosara Yoga Institute, I studied the fundamentals of Interdisciplinary Yoga as a way to move and channel excess energy back into the earth. In search of deeper understanding of the mechanics of the physical body, I discovered acclaimed YogaWorks instructor Gerhard Gessner. With his guidance, I adopted yoga as an everyday lifestyle approach towards the pathway to longevity.

Applying each element of experience, I strive to share my knowledge of this ancient practice to intermix fitness and movement and make my classes accessible to everyone. My outgoing and authentic teaching style motivates each of my students to unearth their fullest potential while also discovering self-assurance.

What should students expect from your class?

Students can expect a well rounded experience of being in their bodies, in the moment and above all, learning about their amazing, unique bodies!

About Me

I am extremely passionate about the human body and achieving optimal health through physical activity, diet and lifestyle. In my classes, you’ll be guided through a practice focused on your breath, optimal alignment, and accessing how you truly feel in your own unique mind and body. I often speak about being true to yourself, regardless of if that means you show up to class on your best or worst day. 

I have been teaching since 2014. Over this time, I have gained a wide variety of teaching experience which has given me the tools to teach to all levels and be attentive to physical limitations and injuries. I love learning about all things wellness and always consider myself a student as well as a teacher. Regardless of why you’ve come onto your mat, my goal is to have you leave my class feeling like you’ve done something great for yourself while also learning a thing or two!
