Updates & Props for Sale 😊

Updates
Hello everyone!
With covid cases going up I am asking everyone to please wear a mask to class and once you are set up and have arrived on your mat, it can be removed. Please place and space out your belongings/jacket against the back wall under the sailboat painting then set up your yoga gear.
Any time we are off of our mats it will be great support for one another to have masks on. When it comes to mask wearing, I am happy to wear it to protect others. And of course, we are all social distancing while we practice and before and after classes too so thank you to everyone for working together. I have had feedback that people feel very safe and comfortable. Spending 1 hour on ourselves out of 24 hours, connecting not only to ourselves with healthy movement but also supporting one another with each others energy is so important for our mental, emotional & physical well-being.

PROPS FOR SALE
I have some blankets for sale and some straps and will have them available to look at this Friday/Saturday. If you would like to buy a bolster or block you can head to this link: https://yoga.ca/yaa-store/ . Medium bolsters are $70 and large bolsters are $78. These prices include GST and I will pick up the orders so each of you can save on shipping.

They accept e-transfer, mastercard and visa.

Your Home Online Studio
If you are uncomfortable practicing in person I have worked at creating online classes for you with new content each week. Practice in the comfort of your own home with online classes & weekly coaching support. If you find it hard to stay committed to a home practice, committing to a 30 Day Challenge may help support consistency and there is a prize for finishers! And if time is an issue, your practice doesn't have to be an hour every day, it is about daily self care and what your body and mind are needing each day.

Unlimited Pass/30 Day Challenge (with access to all classes below): $100/month then $75/month ongoing
Monthly 5 Pack (choose 5 classes plus free replays to use for the month): $50
