Yoga on Salt Spring Island.
Yoga and fitness classes in a bright, skylit studio in Ganges — from slow Hatha and Yin to Ashtanga, Vinyasa and yoga-wall H.I.I.T. Beginners are welcome, and mats and props are included.
Beginner mind, beginner body — both welcome.
You don’t need to be flexible or experienced to start. Our teachers offer modifications, and several classes are built for mixed levels.
- 1Start gently. Mindful Flow, Hatha Yoga, Nectar Flow and Iyengar are good first classes. Yin is slow and restful.
- 2Book ahead if you can. It’s not required, but booking online makes check-in quicker.
- 3Come a little early. The door often locks once class begins.
- 4Travel light. Mats, bolsters and props are provided. Wear clothes you can move in.
- 5Talk to your teacher. Mention any injuries or concerns before class so they can suggest options.
Buy your first drop-in class for $20 and your second class is on us. First-time students only.
