My practice began about 20 years ago. Years of competitive sports had me wound so tight that it took nearly a year to touch my toes. There was an immediate shift in my hamstrings, but the far more profound shift in my whole being was what hooked me.  Yoga is magic. I credit the depth of my practice and love of yoga to the many esteemed teachers I have studied with over the years. I am currently most inspired by the intelligence of Annie Carpenter's SmartFLOW, the mindful creativity of Schuyler Grant's Kula Flow, Carrie Owerko's progressive Iyengar teachings, and the philosophy of Katonah Yoga I've learned through Abbie Galvin.

I look forward to many more years of falling deeply in love with this magical practice. I am honoured to share my biggest passion by leading international retreats, teacher trainings, workshops and public classes all across Canada. After a few wonderful years in the Toronto community, I now call Vancouver home.

I’m Carolyn.… a dedicated meditation guide (and lifelong student!) and I’ve also been teaching yoga trainings and retreats worldwide for 10+ years.  Most recently, my studies have taken me into the worlds of traumatic brain injury and end-of-life support. I lead from a pragmatic, relatable, and lighthearted place while passionately encouraging others to remember that it’s never too late to breathe deeply, to grow, and to change. Since taking my first 200 hour YTT in 2008, I have contributed to many wellness publications, filmed videos for leading brands, presented at international conventions & yoga festivals, facilitated dozens of teacher trainings and led meditation & yoga retreats all over the world.

My teachings have shifted mostly to meditation and “Spa Yoga” practices. Think mellow, meditative, nervous system reset, long hip openers, no effort. A Spa Yoga class is built upon the pillars of slowness, permission to adapt poses, heartfelt themes, quiet.
