Healing Modalities & Movement Classes
CLASSES & TEACHERS
WINTER CLASSES - start week of January 6, 2024
One of the definitions I use for the word Yoga is 'the process of becoming more aware' - more aware of connections and relationships with ourselves, others and everything we experience. This is the basis for my teaching philosophy. It becomes the measurement we offer students to know if the yoga they are practicing is serving them.
Each class we teach offers opportunity to explore this subject through breath, alignment and movement of your body as well as stillness.

10 Week WINTER Session
​with Josi
NOW THURSDAYS
​
Modified Intentional Movement (MIM) (in person)
​
Cost: $250 (HST incl.), for 10 classes on Thursdays, January 9, 16, 23, 30, February 6, 13, 20, 27, March 6, 13 at 9:00-10:15 am
​
Modified Intentional Movement (MIM) is based on yoga, functional movement, and breathing practices, that are adjusted with props and a simplified range of motion, that can shift over time. The MIM series is curated to support our overall wellbeing, and designed with our intentions, everyday efforts, and joys in mind, be it with family, friends, animals, and/or nature.
Registration per season is limited to 10 people in-person, and it closes 4-days prior to the start date, to give Josi the time to first receive, and then prepare for the needs/modifications required for that specific group.
​
Each seasonal session is curated to share a daily routine, designed to increase strength, mobility, balance, and our breath capacity, while promoting a sense of overall well-being, in both body and mind. As the seasonal session progresses, the routine grows into a full practice, that can be integrated in parts, or in whole, with our daily movement practices at home.

JOSI
Josi H gives gratitude to her many studies to support movements of our bodies, breaths, and consciousness. Their mother taught transcendental meditation, under the tutelage of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, which is a meditation technique that works with bija mantras, the repetition of sacred seed sounds. Josi continues to study and practice with the many branches of yoga, and within the past 16 years, has facilitated movement & breath practices from Canada to Peru, Ecuador, and Bahrain. Josi has studied with multiple teachers in meditation (dhyana), yoga asana, pranayama, and philosophy worldwide. They are a certified Hatha Yoga teacher, with additional studies and teaching certifications in Anusara yoga, Reiki, and is a mobility specialist in Functional Range Conditioning.
