Our Schedule
DAILY CALENDAR
We are a yoga studio in NDG serving the West End of Montreal.
Our mission is to offer yoga for everybody and every body.
Our teachers tend to follow the maxim of T.K.V. Desikachar, to make the yoga fit the student, rather than the student fit the yoga. We each bring an accumulation of knowledge, studies and life experience to design classes that suit the students who are in it and achieve a desired result. We acknowledge a range of influences, notably:
- Iyengar yoga has been a deep influence for most of the teachers in terms of attention to detail and alignment.
- Kripalu, for inner attunement and intention for practice, as well as pranayama.
- Heart-Centred Alignment Based Yoga.
- Divine Sleep Yoga Nidra
- Restorative yoga as taught by Judith Lasater.
- Yin yoga
Our meditation program teachers are associated with True North Insight Meditation. Rooted in the teachings of the Buddha and the practices of the Insight (Vipassana) tradition, these meditation sessions are non-denominational and welcome people of every cultural and religious background, colour, socio-economic class, sexual orientation, gender identity, age, education, and physical ability.
Our yoga is focused on but not exclusive to three of its limbs:
asana (postures and movement),
pranayama (breath awareness), and
dhyana (meditation).
Our wellness services complement our mission.
The Yamas and Niyamas of the yoga tradition are our guides to how we do this.

UPCOMING EVENTS
Nutritious Baby Movement, with Janet Clancy
1:30-3:30 PM Sept 9, 23; Oct 7, 28; Nov 11, 28; Dec 9
Babies are soothed when parents are in movement. They settle as this is the natural way of humans. Newborns are born with immense need for human contact, soliciting the parents’ implication in an intense fashion. Parents’ rhythms of life change drastically and many feel cooped up.
I invite you to gather with the ‘village’. Together we explore movements of Educational Kinesiology that nurture baby during this adaptation and that support optimal development and become tools for life. Growing their motor skills is not a race. Allowing the innate reflexive movements to unfold naturally without rushing ahead is what creates the solid foundation for future motor and cognitive skills.
REPAIR & REFRESH, with Julie Nadler
Sunday, September 15, 2-4pm
Give yourself the gift of quiet and stillness.
Experience deeper levels of inner peace and health than you ever imagined possible. Give yourself permission to rest, balance, and restore, tapping into new sources of energy. As your journey unfolds, you will become radiant, joyful, and light.
A combination of passive Yin, Restorative postures and a session of Yoga Nidra, guided meditation, to stimulate the parasympathetic nervous system, bring you to a state of dynamic sleep.

WHAT WE DO
Our goal is to help people in our community to achieve the best state of wellness possible: to remain at that state, or in the case of injury to return to it.
PRICING
Most treatments are done in a 60-90min session. However, depending on your desired goal for the session, appointments can be longer or shorter. This is discussed between you and the therapist. All treatments are done by appointment only.
Therapists
Our team of therapists have a range of different therapies to reach the wellness goals laid out during treatment, and a depth of experience to offer.
