A little reminder for yoga teachers: you’re probably not inviting people to your classes enough.

We sometimes worry about posting “too much.”

What if people already saw it?
What if I’m bothering them?
What if they don’t want another reminder?

But the truth is, people are busy. They miss posts. They forget. Their schedules change.

And sometimes, they just need a simple reminder that there’s a class waiting for them.

So yes, I’m going to keep inviting you.

To slow down.
To move.
To breathe.
To make a little space in your week for yourself.

And if you’ve been thinking about joining one of my classes but haven’t made it yet…

Consider this your invitation.

I’d love to see you on the mat.

Check the link in my bio for the current class schedule and ways to practice with me.

Your yoga class just got a little more wild.

This fall, we’re taking the practice outside.
Hike through Gatineau Park.

Learn a little about the trails and the land around you.

Pause for a seasonal drink.

Then unroll your mat and practice surrounded by nature.

No need to be an experienced hiker.
No need to be an experienced yogi.

Just bring comfortable layers, water, a mat or towel, and an open mind.

And because every session has a different trail, group, weather and practice, no two Hike & Yoga days will be quite the same!

You’ve probably seen me talking about retreats lately…

Peru. Morocco. Hiking & yoga. Trainings. Special events.

And while I LOVE all of those things…

I also really love teaching a good old-fashioned weekly yoga class.

So, a little reminder:

I’m still here.
My mat is still here.
And weekly in-person classes are happening.

Whether you’re looking for a stronger Vinyasa practice, some Core Flow, a slower Yin + Aromatherapy class, or Sunday Flow + Yin, there’s a place for you.

No passport required.

Check out the weekly schedule and come practice with us:

Every yoga class has them… 😂🧘‍♀️

But honestly? I love them all. 🤍

Yoga isn’t about being perfect; it’s about showing up exactly as you are.

Thank you to everyone who steps onto the mat, brings their energy, and makes this community so special.

Which one are you?

If you've been waiting for a sign to book a retreat… this is it. 😉

Girl math says the earlier you book, the longer you have to forget about paying for it.

So by the time your retreat rolls around, all you’ll remember is the yoga, the good food, the fresh air, and how good it feels to have a weekend (or week!) away from your usual routine.

Basically, it’s free.

Here’s what’s coming up:

✨ Back to Balance — October 2–4, 2026
✨ Reading & Yoga Retreat — November 20–22, 2026
✨ Yoga & Snowshoe Retreat — February 5–7, 2027
✨ Peru — March 5–11, 2027
✨ Morocco — April 11–17, 2027
✨ Southern Italy — October 23–29, 2027

Whether you’re craving a cozy weekend close to home or an adventure somewhere completely new, there’s a retreat waiting for you.

There's something grounding about unrolling your mat somewhere new.

Every place has a different energy.

Different sounds.

Different views.

But the practice always has a way of making anywhere feel a little more like home.

One of my favourite parts of travelling is finding a quiet corner, taking a deep breath, and moving my body, whether that's on a beach, in the mountains, or on a hotel balcony.

The scenery changes.

The practice doesn't.

Where's the most memorable place you've ever practiced yoga?

Touch can be one of the most powerful tools we have as movement teachers, but only when it's offered with intention, clarity, and consent.

In Teaching Through Touch, we'll explore how to offer hands-on assists that help students feel safe, supported, and seen.

Through guided practice and real-time feedback, you'll build the confidence to know when to use touch, when not to, and how to adapt your approach for different bodies.

Whether you're new to teaching or looking to refine your skills, you'll leave with practical tools you can bring into your classes right away.

A yoga retreat is so much more than a getaway.

It’s the feeling of arriving somewhere new and knowing every detail has been thoughtfully considered.

From the people you’ll share the experience with, to the places you’ll explore, to the moments you’ll have to slow down and reconnect.

At Unroll the Mat, our retreats are designed to create meaningful experiences that go beyond the mat.

Small groups, intentional destinations, nourishing food, mindful travel, and the space to truly be present.

Because the best journeys aren’t just about where you go…

they’re about how you feel when you’re there.

Ready to unroll your mat somewhere new? I would love for you to join us!

Yin asks us to slow down.

To listen.

To soften.

If you've experienced the power of yin yoga in your own practice, maybe it's time to explore it more deeply.

I'm so excited to be leading a 40-Hour Yin Yoga Teacher Training this fall in partnership with Pure Yoga Ottawa.

Whether you're a yoga teacher looking to expand your offerings, a dedicated yin student wanting to deepen your understanding, or simply someone who loves this practice, this training is for you.

Together, we'll explore anatomy, Traditional Chinese Medicine, Ayurveda, sequencing, cueing, props, and the art of holding space—giving you the confidence to integrate yin with intention and understanding.

You don't have to want to teach.

You just have to love yin. 🤍

📅 October 16 – November 1, 2026
📍 Pure Yoga Centretown, Ottawa
✨ Early bird pricing available until September 1.

Spots are limited.
We'd love to have you join us.
