Katie Junkin
Katie is an experienced yoga instructor, runner, cyclist and mental health researcher. Her approach to teaching yoga is both an alignment and heart centered one, inviting students to bring mindfulness and playfulness into their practice as a means to more deeply explore their mental, physical, emotional and spiritual experience. Katie primarily focuses on teaching Hatha, Flow, Pre-Natal, Restorative and Myofascial release classes and has over 500 hours of training and various certifications. Combined with her extensive University level education in anatomy, physiology and biomechanics from both University of Guelph and Queen’s University (BSc, MSc and MPH), she is a life long student and continues to learn and grow in her practice and through her teaching. This feeds her work with athletes, designing targeted practices to improve functional movement, range of motion and focus for performance.
Description
This class is formally known as Hips & Hamstrings, and we will continue to address these areas, but we've changed the emphasis to include more of a Hatha yoga practice. This is an excellent follow-up for those who have taken the Beginning Yoga class and are ready to go a bit deeper. You can expect both stillness and movement in the postures, attention to breath and mindfulness of the body, balancing steadiness and ease. All levels of experience are welcome!

Gina Giammarco
Discovering yoga changed my life. Since becoming a yoga teacher in the early ‘90’s, I’ve been on a journey of learning and sharing. Passionate about keeping myself, my students and my clients strong and vibrant, my teaching is all about understanding the body from a functional perspective. My Pilates’ training in Anatomy & Biomechanics, Diverse Populations: Athletes, Seniors and Pre/Post Rehab are based on the latest research in physiotherapy and osteopathy. I am Level 3 certified in the osteopathic-based method known as ELDOA. An ELDOA class is like the icing on the cake: combining functional Pilates concepts as preparation to ready the body for the challenging, meditative stillness of ELDOA poses. Reminiscent of the ancient yoga practice that first inspired me, I offer a mindful practice from a modern, science-based platform to keep bodies moving well and with ease.
Description
The first Wednesday of every month, Structure Rx hosts "Brain & Body Wake Up", a specialized class that uses self-massage and awareness as we are guided through our joints and connective tissue.
For the regular weekly Structure Rx class, we honour all the connective tissues, investigating movement, strength and stability. Gentle beginner - intermediate. Handy props - chair, yoga block, cushion, tennis ball.

This is a wonderful class to develop strength, stamina, and flexibility while letting go of the aggressive habits of pushing, pulling, and judgement. While we encourage all levels of practice to this class, we recommend that you have some familiarity with yoga, or another body/mind centered practice.
