I am feeling excited and grateful for the opportunity to try and teach classes again at this incredible space with the support of Diane and Gord Finlayson. I thought I would give everyone myself included some time to get back into the swing of school schedules and routines before we dive into some extra curricular activities! I hope you can join me! For further details please look to the web at www.morethanjustart.ca or you can contact me at [email protected]

Here’s what I have been up to lately. Trying something new and excited about the prospect of teaching more kids yoga classes. Thanks to Diane Johnson Finlayson and Gord Finlayson for their awesome space and support!

This week may be a little hairy with the full moon, time change, and Friday the 13th....oh and it’s also international woman’s day on Sunday. Won’t you think about joining me for this Yoga class that is accessible to everyone. Let’s glide gracefully into this week. Just saying.

Every time I am on the mat I start at this place, the breath. I sit, I breathe, and most times I can feel the melt. The melt of tension, stress, of things unwanted. Sometimes it’s right away within the first few conscious breaths and other days it takes longer to get into it, my mind like a damn monkey swinging from one thought to the other. But when I get settled there’s always deep breath followed by movement and then the practise. I can’t wait to start here, and see where ...the breath takes me. Let’s breathe together and take solace in the present moment. 8 week Strengthening Flow Series Motivations Fitness in Huntsville Thursday January 9th -February 27 6:15-7:15 $109 +HST All levels welcome Pre-registration required See more

Not to wish this time away, as I cruise into the holidays, but I am excited to be on the mat again. Have you thought about your intentions for the new year? This is going to be an amazing series, one that I can really sink myself into as I create my own intention of strength, grace, flow, core, balance, breath, grounding and flexibility. What’s in your vision for 2020? Won’t you join me!

This Sunday December 15 I am teaching a Pay What You Can Yoga class at Ahimsa 10:30-11:30 This time of year inspires me to want to rise up, lend a hand, support one another and wrap ourselves in comfort, warmth, and grace. Let’s let the light in and be held up in love and peace. Won’t you join me.

We are enough as we are. We are part of it altogether. As always thank you Ram Dass

In the last while I have been thinking about the importance of getting quiet, of creating a sanctuary for ourselves where we can unplug and reboot our systems. A place where we can retreat into becoming deeply reflective about the experiences we have, and those we share with others. It’s not easy to create that time for ourselves especially in today’s crazy busy life! But it’s absolutely necessary for our mental wellbeing. Creating quiet and a place of deep peace and calm can... be found in our own backyards all we have to do is want it badly enough. I will continue to remind myself of the importance of this and keep practising this loving kindness. I will also keep going back to my yoga mat. It calls me to shed my many layers, my roles, and delve into the quiet. Won’t you come with me?

Some days you just have to show up, even if you are the only one. And create space, and time, and just get into your body and breathe. I’ll be here again this Sunday for a pay what you can yoga class at 10:30-11:30. Hope you can join me on your mat@ahimsayoga

Chakras are one of my passions, there is so much to learn and share! Excited to be bringing this series to Motivations.
