Postural yoga practice helps to improve posture and relax tensions, while developing body awareness, stability, fluidity, strength, endurance, breathing, confidence and concentration.
Formerly called « active restorative, » this course is particularly inspired by the alignment-based methods of yoga. In the course, we explore the notions of alignment essential to a practice that is respectful of each person’s body. We take the time to dissect, feel and integrate the principles of movement appropriate to each family of postures (flexion, extension, torsion, inversion, standing). Emphasis is placed on teaching the postures in a safe and systematic way, to avoid injuries, reduce discomforts and encourage mobility as much as force. Yoga accessories (bolsters, chairs, straps, etc.) are frequently used in this course to assist in the learning process. Accessible to everyone.
The Hatha flow course combines the principles of alignment with a gentle sequence of postures. As always in yoga, attention is paid to the breath. We try to move effortlessly, sometimes exploring movement a little differently, alternating movement and moments of supported rest. The Hatha flow course helps to release tension, develop body awareness and have fun. Accessible to everyone.
The class is inspired by yoga methods focused on alignment and body awareness. It explores notions of alignment essential to a yoga practice that respects each person’s body. Yoga accessories (bolsters, chairs, straps, etc.) are frequently used to help with learning. Following the physical practice, while either lying down or sitting, we engage in 25-30 minutes of a meditative practice to shift awareness from our external world to the internal world to bring us to a state of deep and healing rest where our senses, intellect and spirit are freed. Benefits include more serenity and resilience, less irritability, and better concentration. Accessible to everyone.

Vinyasa yoga offers a dynamic approach where yoga postures are progressively linked. Our vinyasa courses combine the precision of alignment, with physical commitment and the joy of movement. In this course, you will be invited to synchronize your breathing and your movements, which will push you to move with attention. You will come out of this course reinvigorated, with a calm and clear mind and spirit. Requires prior experience.
These courses are designed for anyone managing particular needs; including injury prevention or management, chronic pain or illness. The courses are open to students of all ages and levels. Since these are group classes, it is possible that the practice differs from one student to another, and that changes are proposed to the course outline so that the practice is appropriate and beneficial to all.
If you are hesitant to join a group course, we recommend that you take a private lesson first, or in parallel.
This course is for people with, or seeking to prevent, back pain. Depending on the needs of students present, emphasis may be placed on muscle relaxation; joint decompression and traction; stretching or reinforcing the torso. By respecting the capabilities of the participants in attendance, this course presents concepts of posture and alignment, in addition to promoting free and easy breathing. The course helps to reduce stress, and promotes better posture and well-being on a daily basis. Accessible to everyone.
For people dealing with a particular need (chronic tension, fatigue, stress, insomnia, pain, etc.). Depending on the specific needs of the participants and the time of year, we will offer a combination of active postures, gentle movements or stretching, while ensuring a good place for restorative postures. Since the capacity for relaxation of the autonomic nervous system is essential to overall health, a time of relaxation and rest is in fact reserved for this purpose in each class. Open to all.
Restorative yoga is a therapeutic practice that promotes deep relaxation for the body and mind through supportive poses. The approach stems from the Iyengar method and uses accessories and props (blocks, straps, bolsters, chairs, etc.) Restorative yoga encourages the prolonged holding of poses which help restore, fortify and reset the different systems of the body. This practice aims to balance the nervous system, which simultaneously improves breathing, concentration, presence, letting go, stability and patience.
In this anti-stress course par excellence, we encourage tranquility, simplicity, relaxation and a profound letting go. A marriage between the repertoires of passive restorative yoga and yin yoga, the range of poses offered are devoted entirely to relaxation. The passivity of the muscles in these postures allows a relaxation and a stretching of the muscular and connective tissues, in addition to mobilizing the joints. This approach is an ideal complement to dynamic activities (vinyasa yoga, martial arts, athletic training, etc.), or when rest is necessary, as in during a convalescence. Accessible to everyone.
In preparation for the New Year, let’s take some time to deeply clean and nourish the energy centres of the body, named by the ancient rishis, the Chakras. Using dynamic hatha,some restorative yoga poses as well as chanting mantra, the seven rainbow-coloured jewels of our energetic being will be balanced, toned and luminous.
Sadhana can be defined as The Return Journey. What are we returning to? Through practice, we return to our true divine nature that lies beneath our conditioned individual selves, as a state of deep integrity, clarity and grace. Please join me in a morning sadhana that will include inspirational readings, simple asana practice (focussing on the spine and kidneys) and meditation, all to help us abide in our sacred centre.
A gentle course advocating energy balance in pre-sleep mode.
Yin asanas aimed at gently stretching the body’s connective tissues and simple acupressure routines will be offered, all to support the energetic balance of the body’s various meridians. A pair of coupled meridians will be explored during each session depending on the season and the appropriate theme.
For anyone intrigued by Hatha Yoga, or wishing to review the basics of the practice. In a gentle, safe and progressive way, these classes will introduce and analyze the main families of postures (standing, forward bends, backbends, twists and inversions) as well as some breathing and meditation exercises.
The “small group / on registration” formula will allow the teacher to offer personalized follow-up in order to adapt the practice to the reality of each student.
This series is a great way to get started with yoga and experience the benefits that the practice can offer on a physical, emotional and mental level. The course will then allow participants to follow the « Postural Hatha” courses with confidence!
Accessories needed: belt, chair, one or two towels (or blankets).
Feldenkrais is a mind-body approach. Its connects our sensory, motor and cognitive capacities through movement.
Although movement is an essential ingredient of Feldenkrais, the technique is not in the service of fitness. Instead of a focus on immediate results and performance, which is all too common today, Feldenkrais proposes we take the time to experience a meditative experience in our body. During classes, we constantly seek higher states of attention. Through their voice, the teacher guides the participants through a series of actions that participants integrate in their own way, becoming aware of their habits and discovering new ways of moving.
A regular practice of Feldenkrais improves posture, balance, mobility and coordination. It reduces the likelihood of injury and constitutes a powerful tool for improving artistic or sporting gestures, as well as better pain and stress management. Accessible to everyone.
This practice is for all women who care about the general health of their menstrual cycle, reproductive system and life transitions.

You will learn how to adapt your yoga practice to the cyclic reality of your body. This approach promotes a healthy menstrual cycle, fertility, a comfortable pregnancy and an easing into menopause. Accessible to all.
