ethos
Anytime we sell yoga with assurances of bliss or peace or healing, we undermine the true essence of the practice, which is to make room for things as they are. Bliss, peace, and healing can sometimes arrive as natural byproducts of yoga, but they recede as objects of yearning—this distinction is at the heart of the practice.
The wonderful thing is, yoga sells itself. A studio that creates space for this to happen, with experts who practice what they teach, and an outstanding physical environment, is a community that thrives.
This is our goal: to provide a room for the practice to do what it does.

about
For decades, there's been a yoga studio at the corner of 18th and Collingwood. It's been through different eras and owners and names, but the studio has always been a beacon, locally and globally. The room has seen thousands of classes, tens of thousands of people, hundreds of thousands of discoveries. We nod to the legendary history of a container that's held so much, and open the door for everything that comes next.
