Lululemon Expansion Series: Yoga at the ROM

Hello yogis or anyone who enjoys yoga whenever they can get in their practice!

I attached photos of Lululemon's free Yoga event held at the ROM, Toronto's Royal Ontario Museum, on Thursday, January 26th.

The host of the event, or shall I say amazing Yoga Instructor and Owner of IAMYOGA studios, Linda Malone, lead over 300 people in a Flow yoga class that took place in front of a Buddha statue and a few dinosaur exhibits as well.

The energy that was felt in this room full of individuals of all ages and fitness levels, was truly moving. I felt an immediate connection with everyone and for one full hour, I was filled with peace, calmness and most importantly a sense of community.

Lululemon has now teamed up with The National Ballet of Canada to host their second Yoga event on Thursday, February 16th at 7pm. I encourage you to come out an experience this sense of community and togetherness in an amazing venue. Click on the link for more details!

Luulemon's Expansion Series #1




I used this umbrella so that my fellow group members of COWS (Canadian Outdoor World Seekers) could all find each other at the ROM museum's yoga event! There were 300 yogis in total!

Try a new fitness class this fall!


I'm back and ready to keep you updated on my various adventures! Today I'd like to share with you a new class that I've just fallen in love with. It's challenging, fun, and it stimulates your brain!

This class is called Body Conditioning By Dancers created and taught by Eva Redpath. So what is it exactly?

I consider this class a "boot camp" style class. But what makes her class so unique is that her program is actually choregraphed to music! Who would have thought you could perform push ups, lunges, squats, to the beat and in time to the music? Not to mention, you learn new exercises that only a masochist could create.

But most importantly, what makes her class so unique is that she actually cares that you have the proper form and technique. She has instructors, called the "Form Police" who attend classes to ensure everyone is performing the exercises properly. Modifications are always provided if needed.

If you're curious like me, I've included her website for your review. Trust me, you have to see it to believe it! On her website, she's included a video to give you an idea of what her class entails. But don't be fooled. It may look easy but I've had my butt kicked in 2 of her 6 week sessions so far! I'm now on my 3rd and it's even harder than the first two!

Hope to see you one of her classes!
