Freedom Flow “Yoga” SeriesThis six-week series will change the way you think of yoga. It will expand your knowledge of alignment, postures, meditation, and breathwork, and teach you to use them to create your own flow. You'll leave the series with the freedom to curiously explore your own inspired movement, both on and off the mat. The Freedom Flow Series is designed to take you from wherever you're at now, into love, playfulness, and creativity. Learn how to trust yourself and completely surrender into your body - LOVE your body. This juicy series is completely inspired by the practice of yoga. It's had such a huge impact on both Cassie and Tamara, and we're so excited to bring this to Kelowna. Whether you’re brand new to yoga or have been practicing for years, you’re sure to leave with a new love for your practice. Join us post-movement for journalling, tea & conscious discussion, as well as in an online Facebook group for continuous support.
