Savassana is a vulnerable shape; your student’s eyes are likely closed, lying on their backs, surrounded by strangers, in a room not in their home, possibly processing some stuff.

Teachers, you need to do a couple things to ensure Savassana FEELS safe for your students.

First of all, Shhhhh.
You might have many beautiful, well intentioned things to say, but now is not the time.

Secondly, respect this integral part of the practice. Don’t EVER take pictures. And if you are going to burn palo santo, or provide hands on support, please make sure you have consent. Period.

Join Liseanne on Saturday, December 5 at 4 pm for a 90 minute workshop where breath leads, and stillness speaks. Unwind your body, quiet the mind, and remember what it feels like to simply “be”.

Avalon works to end sexualized violence, and help those who’ve been affected by it. They are a safe space for survivors and their loved ones. And they take a leadership role in our community to educate and advocate for social change.

For every “like” this post gets between now and December 1st, OTM will donate $1 to Avalon Centre. Please like and share.

Jasmine has a keen sense of what feels GOOD in your body. She’s designed her upcoming workshop “Ribcage Reset” to restore ease and mobility around the breath.

On Tuesday, December 8th, this 75 minute small format workshop will invite you to explore how your ribcage and upper body moves, expands and supports your breathing in both stillness and motion.

If you’ve ever struggled with tension in the muscles that support your breathing, this one is for you.

Breath is LIFE, and the muscles we use to breathe deeply live around our ribcage; the diaphragm, the intercostal muscles, as well as the scalenes and pecs.

Join Jasmine for a 75 minute workshop on December 8th that will help bring new awareness to the quality of movement in this area of your body. Leave feeling grounded, refreshed, and deeply relaxed.

Space is limited to 20 students.

If we had a Loonie for the amount of times we’ve heard students express guilt for taking time away from their practice or our studio - we’d be billionaires (but not the as***le kind).

We promise that if we are reuniting with you, no matter how long it’s been, we are happy. Supporting you, in the moment, is all we care about.

Have you ever felt yourself drawn to the moon?

Join Kristie for this 4 week series dedicated to syncing the cycles of the moon, and becoming more in touch with the natural cycles of yourself.

These 90 minute classes will be themed to align with the lunar phases, and will begin and end with a sound bath.

This is a small workshop format, and class size is limited to 12. Pre-registration is required.

Teaching yoga is dynamic in nature; it’s the confluence of LOTS of skills jammed into 60 minutes.

Managing the energy of the space in which you are teaching is one of the many skills we will discuss in depth in our RYTT.

How and where you move your body, the volume and cadence of your voice, the delicate give and take of effort and ease.

The registration link is now live for our training, and there are just a handful of spots left.

Did you know that Anna is the one who actually started the Hot Stone Restorative class here at OTM?

When she stepped away to grow her beautiful little family, Siohan graciously took the class. Now that Siobhan has stepped away to grow HER beautiful little family, Anna is back.

We love a full circle moment; welcome back Anna, and all of the blessings to Sioban.

Acupressure is an ancient healing modality that uses finger pressure on specific points of the body to stimulate, and rebalance the flow of energy, activating the body’s natural ability to heal itself. The process releases endorphins that relieve pain, and ease muscular tension. Join Kristie on October 27 at 8 pm for “Unwind” - a 75 minute workshop that combines the benefits of both Acupressure and Restorative Yoga.

This class is limited to 9 students, and pre-registration is required.
