Please note: I cannot respond to texts and emails during class times.

Arrive early! The door is open 30 minutes before the first class of the evening and only 10 minutes before the second class begins. Doors are locked five minutes before class time.

If you are going to be late you can try texting me at 902-969-3102 BEFORE class begins.

If you are new to Kundalini Yoga:  it is a style of Yoga that truly accepts you at whatever level of practice you are from beginner to experienced.  It is accommodating and can be done in a chair. (Just let us know if you need one so we can have it ready for you.)  The special evenings we hold follow the traditional “recipe” for a Kundalini Yoga experience including light motion, chanting, breath work, meditation, and relaxation.  

Please wear comfortable clothing that moves with you. Wearing white is optional, it is said it helps expand your aura, the magnetic field around you.

Bring a yoga mat, cushion to sit on that helps bring your knees downward, a blanket or large beach towel to get cozy under for relaxation, and a water bottle, if you desire.  A second blanket for under your mat can add to warmth and comfort.

The teachers have multiple Yoga teaching certifications and have been leading this particular style of yoga for 14 plus years each.

A note from Ruth: I was introduced to meditation almost 60 years ago, before exploring a physical yoga practice.  A teacher at high school and his book list was a great influence. I started teaching Yoga in 1980 with Community School in Montague, PEI using several books that are still on my shelves.  My formal yoga teacher training experiences began shortly after.  I have amassed thousands of hours of Yoga teacher training and other aligned trainings. I have teaching certificates from internationally recognized instructors in Kundalini, Hatha, Yin, and Ashtanga Yoga styles.

I also studied Yoga Therapy extensively with Doug Keller and over the years attended many workshops for teachers in other styles including Restorative and Anusara.  An assortment of top teachers along the way in the USA, Canada, Italy, and India have contributed to my knowledge and teaching styles of pranayama, meditation and Yoga Nidra. 

In my life I like to incorporate several styles in my daily practice, classes, and day to day life to help the body and mind explore and enjoy this world and it’s experiences to the fullest extent.
