WORKSHOP & EVENTS
65hr Restorative Teacher Training
65 hrs total
<New Starting Date>
Restorative yoga invites us to bring more softness and ease to our bodies and mind. When our restorative yoga practice nourishes this stillness and steadiness, it begins to imbue into our lives. We, most importantly, rest, especially in a time and society where achieving, accumulating, and doing more is celebrated. We become more inclusive of all parts of ourselves (and others).
New Moon Yoga Nidra
2 hrs
Nov 2, 2024 Yoga Nidra Theme: Rest in the Alter of Your Heart
Life can throw us many curveballs, hardships, and heartaches. We can tighten up, close off (trying to protect our heart), become bitter and cynical, and even begin to control our environment and others. This disconnects us from our own heart and others. But there’s another choice – to remain centred in love – to rest in the altar of your heart.
In this session, I guide you to a place of relaxation where the thoughts begin to slow down. You’ll move into a deep state of stillness (moving through the koshas), where you are unconditionally supported and awaken a connection to the infinite or Source.

Restorative & Sound Healing Journey
2 hrs
Sound and Restorative is a beautiful pairing. Restorative yoga releases tension, cultivates more space, softens the edges we experience in ourselves and life, and opens up new energy to invigorate us. Sound Healing allows us to sink into a higher frequency. The mind and body surrenders into the vibration. Enjoy the exquisite sounds of singing bowls, tuning forks and more.
Bhuta Shuddhi Tantra
2 hrs
Our body is a sacred temple. This workshop combines visualization, pranayama (breath work), and Japa (chanting) to purify the five elements in their corresponding chakras, along with the two highest realms of consciousness: Ajna and Sahasrara. It aims to purify the central energetic channel, Sushumna, rendering the body pure and training the mind to concentrate.
This 2-hour Bhuta Shuddhi practice will invoke bija (seed) sounds for each element through repetition, as well as breathwork and meditation, to open each chakra and awaken the force of Kundalini Shakti. This prepares the body as a living shrine for the Divinity that dwells within.
Art of Adjustment
7 hrs
Partnering with a fellow practitioner or supporting a student requires knowledge and practice. Confidence is key to providing intentional and appropriate touch, while enhancing alignment and overall experience. The art of hands-on adiustment is intended for teachers and students who are curious about alignment. It involves honouring someone's space, providing balance, working with the student's breath, matching energy and supporting rather than "fixing."
In this course, we will cover issues of consent and responsibility, and practice stabilizing and mobilizing techniques. Students will work with partners to both execute and experience hands-on adjustments in all types of poses - standing, seated, twists, backbends and inversions.
Mudras & Bandhas
2 hrs
Hatha Yoga is a potent alignment system focused on awakening the kundalini energy within through the forces of the Moon and the Sun. In this workshop, we will explore the 12 most significant Mudras (energetic seals) and Bandhas (energetic locks) as explained in the yogic texts Hatha Yoga Pradipika, Shiva Samhita, and Gheranda Samhita. These practices are said to annihilate old age and conquer death, allowing aspirants to master the body, mind, and spirit.
