Breath is LIFE, and the muscles we use to breathe deeply live around our ribcage; the diaphragm, the intercostal muscles, as well as the scalenes and pecs.

Join Jasmine for a 75 minute workshop on December 8th that will help bring new awareness to the quality of movement in this area of your body. Leave feeling grounded, refreshed, and deeply relaxed.

Space is limited to 20 students.

If we had a Loonie for the amount of times we’ve heard students express guilt for taking time away from their practice or our studio - we’d be billionaires (but not the as***le kind).

We promise that if we are reuniting with you, no matter how long it’s been, we are happy. Supporting you, in the moment, is all we care about.

Have you ever felt yourself drawn to the moon?

Join Kristie for this 4 week series dedicated to syncing the cycles of the moon, and becoming more in touch with the natural cycles of yourself.

These 90 minute classes will be themed to align with the lunar phases, and will begin and end with a sound bath.

This is a small workshop format, and class size is limited to 12. Pre-registration is required.

Teaching yoga is dynamic in nature; it’s the confluence of LOTS of skills jammed into 60 minutes.

Managing the energy of the space in which you are teaching is one of the many skills we will discuss in depth in our RYTT.

How and where you move your body, the volume and cadence of your voice, the delicate give and take of effort and ease.

The registration link is now live for our training, and there are just a handful of spots left.

Did you know that Anna is the one who actually started the Hot Stone Restorative class here at OTM?

When she stepped away to grow her beautiful little family, Siohan graciously took the class. Now that Siobhan has stepped away to grow HER beautiful little family, Anna is back.

We love a full circle moment; welcome back Anna, and all of the blessings to Sioban.

Acupressure is an ancient healing modality that uses finger pressure on specific points of the body to stimulate, and rebalance the flow of energy, activating the body’s natural ability to heal itself. The process releases endorphins that relieve pain, and ease muscular tension. Join Kristie on October 27 at 8 pm for “Unwind” - a 75 minute workshop that combines the benefits of both Acupressure and Restorative Yoga.

This class is limited to 9 students, and pre-registration is required.
