Congratulations!
You are considering or are currently practicing yoga! A wonderful practice for your body, mind and spirit! Some times people ask why they would practice at a studio when they can get yoga on the cheap at the gym… Here’s why you should choose to practice with us…

You Receive the Best Instruction…
Balanced Life Yoga requires all teachers to have extensive training. The minimum training we accept is a 200 Hour teacher training certification and we generally hire out of our own high standard training program. All of our teachers have training in yoga postures, yoga history, philosophy, anatomy, physiology, meditation, teaching skills, ethics and more. The training required to teach yoga at a gym is not nearly as extensive and many are in fact fitness teachers who have taken just an afternoon training. At Balanced Life Yoga you are receiving the best instruction which will give you a deeper, more meaningful practice with teachers who walk the talk.

You Will Be Safe and Cared For…
At Balanced Life Yoga you will notice our teachers demonstrating but also walking around the room assisting you and ensuring you are aligned correctly and safely. Gym yoga teachers are usually at the front of the room practicing yoga with the students and may not even know how to assist or modify the posture for you. Our teachers know the poses from personal practice (and not just via text book instruction). You will have a safe, enjoyable practice that works for you! You will notice we are also friendly, caring and compassionate which means you will feel welcome and heard rather than feeling like just a number.

You Will Feel Comfortable…
Yoga is an individual experience, not a competitive sport. You will never feel pressure in our classes, and students are encouraged to stay within their limits. Balanced Life Yoga teachers also offer variations of many poses for students of different levels and we love beginners! You will never feel intimidated or silly. We welcome everyone!

Your Home Away from Home…
At Balanced Life Yoga our studios are an oasis of calm, inspiration and positive energy. The ambiance at a gym will tend to be, well, gym-like. We take great care to provide a relaxing, welcoming environment. We have painted the walls with pleasing colors, we play nice music, light candles and we have a relaxed feeling. We want our studio to be your home away from home. We also love to build community. We learn your name, what you like and how we can help you. We encourage you to relax or to quietly connect with other like-minded people before or after class.

Payment Structures that Meet Your Needs…
Unlike gyms who are hoping you will NOT use your membership we actually want you in class and celebrate your practice. We also have a variety of ways to pay for classes and not just a yearly membership that you or may not use. We are also one of the most reasonably priced yoga studios in the GTA.

Classes Designed for You…
You’ll find we offer a greater range of classes providing instruction on different levels and styles from Power Yoga to Gentle Yoga and specialty classes such as prenatal yoga and yoga for seniors. We are a multi-disciplinary studio that believes our offerings should meet YOUR wellness and fitness needs. We also offer a variety of class time options.

Give yourself the true experience of yoga at a high quality, affordable, friendly and authentic studio – Balanced Life Yoga. We look forward to seeing you soon.
