Life's a little weird right now, am I right? But hey, at least you can try to embrace some normalcy by getting back into a regular workout routine. It's good for the body AND the mind! Mask wearing "is what it is" for the foreseeable future. Here in the Pilates studio, we make it a priority to create a safe space for all, following COVID-19 protocols and recommendations. Our head teacher, Lora, always wears a mask when teaching. She follows social distancing guidelines and will always ask permission to move in closer for any hands on adjustments. As a student, you may choose to wear a mask, or not wear a mask for the duration of your workout. Your comfort and safety is our priority!

DM to reserve your spot as there are limited spots available! Zoom options live or recorded are also available. Jayleen is a 730 hour trained yoga teacher in Hatha, Modo hot yoga, Yin, and Paddle board yoga. She found her passi...on for yoga while traveling around Australia in 2013. After returning home she made a dive deep into a dedicated self practice. Her initial attraction was how yoga offered such a release both mentally and physically. The focus on bringing awareness to the movements happening within the body as well as the flowing motivation of the breath to create that real, true connection of breath, body and mind. Jayleen has immersed herself in a variety of trainings, spending time in India, and Canada to help shape her unique and hypnotic style of teaching. You can expect a bit of a work out for the first half of her classes, then celebrated with a meditative bliss like state for the last half of class. Jayleen’s classes welcome all levels and she is dedicated to making sure beginner yogis feel comfortable in her classes. She offers private sessions to help build confidence or simply providing a detailed experience catering to your specific needs. If that is something of interest please send us an email See more
