Maureen Mark
Throughout her life, Maureen has sought balance between work and other life stresses through fitness. Over the years, she has played a variety of sports, and followed various popular modalities for fitness, e.g., running, swimming, aerobics, before finding yoga in 2009. Maureen explored yoga, from videos and classes before deciding to focus on Ashtanga, yin, and myofascial release techniques. Maureen completed her 200-hour teacher training in 2014, and followed that in 2015 with a certification in Yoga Tune Up®. Maureen is a continuous learner and brings new material to classes as she picks them up from classes with other teachers, workshops, and new certifications. Maureen’s classes focus on improving mobility on the mat and enhancing everyday activities.

Description

This class combines seated, standing and reclined postures, with slow and mindful movements that focus on alignment and mobility. Ample instruction will allow you to move safely into each pose, with sufficient time to adapt the postures to honour your body and range of motion. Props such as blocks, bolsters, straps and Yoga Tune Up balls are often used to support this practice. When used, Yoga Tune Up balls are provided. Other props are available in studio, though you are always welcome to bring your own!
