NEW at MYF this year: prenatal & postnatal yoga!! Are you expecting or have recently given birth? Then Nicky Yates has the classes for you! On Saturday, July 14 Nicky is teaching pre-natal yoga with lessons on mindfulness + modifications during pregnancy. In this 90-minute class Nicky will guide you to keep your body and baby safe as well as mobile during all trimesters of pregnancy. On Sunday, July 15 join Nicky for post-natal yoga. This empowering class is perfect for women who might feel that strength, stamina, and energy were misplaced during pregnancy. In this class, you'll visit postures that use a quality of strength as well as pranayama techniques to find stability in our pelvic floor and core muscle groups. Balancing this work with postures to help release physical tension and emotional stress, you'll come back to a place to relaxation. As a previously competitive athlete, Nicky has always had an interest in the body and its ability. She was first drawn to yoga by the asana, but after a serious head injury she became absorbed in the rehabilitating and calm qualities of pranayama and mindfulness meditation. With over 300 hours of training, six years of teaching, and a life’s worth of experience, you will find in her classes a slow pace as well as more alignment-based cueing. Within this slow pace, you will be encouraged to dive into your own personal experience and explore not only your body and its ability, but also the benefits of a more mindful practice. Join Nicky at Muskoka Yoga Festival! Learn more here: http://www.muskokayogafestival.com/event/pre-natal-yoga-with-nicky-yates/

Please welcome Shannon Hastings to this year's Muskoka Yoga Festival! She's teaching MOBILITY IS THE NEW FLEXIBILITY: a mix of traditional poses with a modern spin to focus on functional mobility & strength with a few anatomy lessons along the way. . . Shannon is a movement educator & yoga teacher. She's really into a modern yoga method: building strength in our functional ranges, flirting with the fine line of structure & freedom, and learning WHY our bodies move the way they do. She believes in being real more than anything else. . . Join Shannon at this summer's Muskoka Yoga Festival on July 14 & 15!

Muskoka Yoga Festival is more than just three days a year. Our community stays together 365 days, whether we're at the festival or apart. What a great group we had at last week's #VegFest. Thank you so much to everyone who came out. We had a blast! Thanks Toronto Vegetarian Association
