About Yoga Instructor

As a certified yoga instructor and a proud member of the International Yoga Federation, I guide people on a journey of inner growth and self-discovery, both on and off the mat.

In collaboration with the Vipassana Club, I support retreats and classes rooted in mindfulness, silence, and deep presence, creating a space for personal transformation and embodied awareness.

Yoga, for me, is more than a practice – it’s a way of relating to life with clarity, compassion, and grounded openness. Through movement, breath, and stillness, we begin to remember our wholeness.

I warmly invite you to join me on this journey, where yoga becomes a path of inner exploration, mindful living, and real connection with yourself and the world around you.

Best Yoga Classes in Calgary for Beginners and Advanced Students

Can yoga really help with stress and anxiety?

Absolutely. Movement, breathwork, and mindfulness in yoga directly regulate the nervous system. Many students in Calgary come to yoga as a way to manage stress, reconnect with themselves, and find emotional balance.

How often should I practice yoga to feel real change?

Practicing 2–3 times a week is a great starting point. What matters most is consistency. With regular practice, you’ll start noticing better flexibility, calmer focus, and a stronger connection to your body.

Which style of yoga is best for beginners in Calgary?

Hatha yoga or slow flow styles are ideal for beginners. These classes introduce foundational postures, conscious breathing, and inner stillness, creating a safe entry point before exploring more dynamic practices.

Do I need to be flexible or experienced to join?

Not at all. Classes are designed to be inclusive and supportive. Whether you’re stiff from sitting, new to yoga, or returning after a break, you’ll find a gentle, encouraging environment where you can move at your own pace.

What makes your classes different from others in Calgary?

Beyond just movement, I offer a space to slow down, feel deeply, and reconnect. Each yoga class integrates breathwork, body awareness, and gentle meditation, creating a holistic experience that supports both physical well-being and inner clarity.

What’s included in a yoga session?

A complete class includes breath awareness, mindful movement, postural alignment, and a calming closing. I often weave in elements of yoga philosophy and light meditation to support not just the body, but the mind and nervous system as well.

What should I bring to a yoga class in Calgary?

Comfortable clothing, a water bottle, and your own yoga mat are usually enough. Some locations provide props like blocks or straps, but bringing your own ensures comfort and hygiene. For more active or warm classes, a towel can be useful.

Is yoga safe for people with back

Yes, yoga can be very supportive for those with back issues. I offer personalized modifications with gentle stretches and stabilizing poses that help relieve tension and build strength without straining the spine.

Is meditation a part of every class?

Yes, in a light and accessible way. Most sessions close with 10–15 minutes of seated or lying-down meditation. These simple practices help calm the mind, deepen awareness, and bring the whole experience together.

Do you organize yoga retreats near Calgary?

Yes. I help facilitate yoga and meditation retreats in collaboration with the Vipassana Club. These retreats offer a powerful space to disconnect from daily noise and go inward — through silence, presence, and deep reflection.
