We have a new class starting tonight and needed to grab your attention to announce it! Ray Hawkins will be teaching a Functional Movement class to help our bodies move in all the ways it should for a healthy life. Make it a double and stay for Nidra after? Perfect. Functional Movement 4:45-5:45pm every Friday night.

“Overall these findings are important because they show that alterations in key brain circuits associated with emotion regulation can be produced by mindfulness meditation. Some changes can occur in a relatively short time while other changes require much more practice,”
We will be learning all about this in our Meditation Teacher Training starting this fall!

Yep.

What does this mean to you? How can it apply to your yoga practice? We are seeing a lot of 'additions' to yoga lately - goats, beer, kittens, acupuncture... the list goes on and on. Some days I wish we could say: It's simply yoga.

Mindfulness meditation (vipassana) can help you to relax body and mind, improve concentration and attention, and develop insight into how you relate to yourself and others in your life. In this series, you will learn the basics of mindfulness meditation and get started on a home practice. You’ll learn what mindfulness is and how to integrate it in daily life to gradually bring more awareness and less stress in everything you do. In each class there will be guided and non-guid...ed meditation, opportunity for discussion and questions, and weekly talks on meditation and mindfulness topics. Each week there is simple, practical homework to support practice and understanding. The text for this class is Meditation for Beginners, by Jack Kornfield. Copies will be available for purchase at YogaMCC. An e-book version is available online, but does not include the guided meditation CDs available with the hard copy.

Reading the book Thinking, Fast & Slow right now and it talks about just this!

Gisele will introduce you to the basics of traditional Thai Massage and a mixed movement art, called Budokon, which fuses a seamless, 3-dimentlonal dance-like flow of yoga asanas characterized by elements of martial arts and locomotion.

Well she may not tower over you but she for sure towers over me! One of the first things that impressed me about Bridgette was her dedication to her teachers and her practice. This women doesn't mess around! Dedicated, strong, caring and is one of the few that can keep me awake in Yoga Nidra!

Wonderful studio, very comfortable energy indeed.

The energy of the studio is amazing! I love teaching Spring Forest Qigong there as the healing energy is amplified with the great space.

The best in town. Great teachers and friendly environment.

So grateful for the respite of this studio and the experience and expertise of the teachers at Yogamcc. I feel at home here.

So far I have done Sherry, Bridget and Marnie’s classes. All of them are wonderful. Their classes are perfectly designed to respect ALL yoga bodies. I struggle from a brain injury. I struggle physically and with vestibular problems. Yoga mcc has been a safe place to explore and challenge that. Thank you �

One of the most authentic, creative, innovated centres in Canada. From the founder, to the teachers, to the amazing staff - all move with heart, wisdom and compassion.

I love the tradition of Iyengar yoga with the fun and music of flow!!!

I love the energy at this studio !

Beautiful space and lovely people. Really enjoyed it!

Amazing space, people and welcome! Thank you for having me share sound for Trevor's Yin Class a few weeks ago. I'll be back again to share some more medicine as we rest in another yin class. <3

A great Yoga studio, the best in Calgary

Great way

Lost my wallet in the change room, so be careful with your valuables. Po0r front end people but yoga classes are fine

I say no to this illegal inhumane business operation. I will not recommend this yoga, manipulation and prostitution centre to anyone in my worst nightmare. find out how this yoga academy destroyed the life of a woman whose life is in serious critical condition by the use of racism, violence, force and threats to keep her mouth shut.. they have stopped her so she cannot honestly express her views about the disturbed couple with unresolved trauma and ongoing relationship crisis about to spill all over you should you invest in their greedy, uncaring movement to steal money and power from you so your life will never be the same again.. they are only about good comments and loving complements and disallow all honest and truthful feedback.
