The YogaCanada approach integrates physical asana and yogic philosophy. The lineage of teachings comes through Hatha and Vinyasa roots. YogaCanada encompasses ethical values from many systems of yoga, empowering teachers with the confidence and skills necessary to inspire their students. This style unites several existing methods as well as teachings from real life experience, which is essential to understanding yoga. The method allows the practitionner freedom from routine, leading to a kind of “intelligent freestyle” of practice. This leads to a natural progression of practice of individuality, where uniqueness is celebrated as a piece of the oneness we are part of. Your practice becomes incredibly powerful based on your current motivations, goals, and your perspective of understanding.
