A Mid-summer morning 
sunday july 12, 2026
​9:30-1:30

Sign up now

​On June 21st, the Summer Solstice arrives, the longest day of the year and the beginning of summer. The sun then transitions from the sign of Gemini into watery Cancer, a season associated with emotional healing, intuition, and deep connection. Nature invites us to shed old layers and open ourselves to receive the beauty, abundance, and expansiveness of her gifts.

In Traditional Chinese Medicine, summer relates to the element of Fire, the most yang, vibrant, and expansive of the five elements. The Fire element relates to the heart, and summer offers a time for joy, healing, and connection. As we soak in the warmth and sunshine, we are supported in expanding outward, opening our hearts, and deepening our relationships with others.
​

To honour this season, I am thrilled to announce A Midsummer Morning Gathering, a special time dedicated to exploring themes of intuition, emotional healing, and opening ourselves to receive the love, joy, and abundance associated with this time of year.
We would be so honoured for you to join us!

Yin Yoga is a practice that emphasizes long-held passive stretches that target the deeper connective tissue including fascia and ligaments. By emphasizing long held passive stretches, yin yoga will help to stretch and lengthen these tissues while having a meditative quality and a gentle somatic release. Yin yoga is based on Taoist understanding of Qi (or energy) and through these poses we are opening up blockages and releasing energy to flow freely. All poses are done in positions on the floor, and blocks and bolsters are liberally used and encouraged.
