We are committed to bringing quality services to communities located in and around Lanark and Leeds/Grenville counties.
ABOUT US
Yoga & Wellness for Life! was founded on the principle that every individual should be given an opportunity to live life to the full extent in health and contentment. In keeping with this principle, we offer premium yoga and fitness classes for men and women of all ages and experience levels. To provide families an opportunity to bond, family yoga, mommy & me yoga and mother & daughter classes are scheduled on demand.
Our studio, located at Davidson’s Courtyard, 7 Russell street West, Smiths Falls, uses infrared heat during hot yoga as the therapeutic benefits include increased perspiration resulting in a more comprehensive cleansing and detoxification of the body. The beautiful fireplace creates a beautiful welcoming environment during fall and winter months.
We are committed to providing students with a safe and nurturing environment to practice yoga. All classes are guided by registered yoga teachers, who participate in annual training and workshops in yoga and alternative therapies to continually upgrade knowledge and maintain professional memberships. The background of the teacher is heavily concentrated in anatomy and in-depth training in the kinesiology of each asana (pose). This is complimented by providing an environment respectful of the philosophical traditions and spirit of yoga, encouraging students to embrace those aspects, which can be used to enhance their lives.
Supporting the communities in Lanark, Leeds and Grenville counties, our students support oncology patients, those in hospice and palliative care, undergoing treatment and their caregivers by supporting a complimentary Restorative Yoga class on Monday mornings. This class is open to all.
