Inhabit Yoga & Sauna Sessions

Join us for Inhabit Yoga and Sauna Sessions!

Come for one or both. First, a weekly one hour community yoga class (just $10!) where we connect with the breath and movement in the heart of North Van's Seylynn community, very close to the 2nd Narrows Bridge. Classes are thoughtfully designed for individuals of all levels, from beginners seeking to explore the world of yoga to seasoned practitioners looking for a new and inspiring setting to deepen their practice.

Second, we are stoked to offer an optional post-class relaxation option for those seeking an extra layer of rejuvenation. Following each yoga practice, participants have the opportunity to indulge in the serenity of North Shore Sauna's (www.ns-sauna.com) barrel sauna, cold plunges and shower in our mountain-facing parking lot. Remember you can skip the yoga and come just for the sauna. Either way, the sauna sessions are open for a donation of $20. Unwind and calm your senses in this inviting healing space. Immerse yourself in the warmth of the barrel sauna, allowing the soothing heat to penetrate and relax your muscles, followed by a cleansing hot shower and revitalizing dip into the cold plunge pools to rejuvenate your body and mind. After, sit with some complementary herbal tea and relax, integrate, then repeat. This unique experience harmoniously complements the yoga practice, providing a holistic and blissful retreat for those looking to elevate their well-being at an affordable donation rate.

About Jim Barnum, RYT-200:
"In 1992 I saw a yoga Sun Salutation in “Ski Freak Radical”, a hippie skiing magazine. With a strong internal “yes” to this weird and mysterious thing, I was hooked, practicing daily, finding it supported my professional snowboarding pursuits physically and mentally. After my Sun Sals I’d mess around, exploring movement & breath on my own. I found myself in various poses that I now know to be classic asanas such as Natarajasana / Dancer’s Pose, & moving in ways that I now know to be Qi Gong. This intuitive foundation led to my passion for spontaneous, self-inspired yoga, which is also a principle at the school where I received my Yoga Alliance 200 Hour Teacher Training. I learned from my lineage-carrying teacher that while it’s vital to understand the precise postures, it’s equally important to freely find the expression that best serves you - that simply feels really good - on any given day.
I’ve worked in my passions (snowboarding, skateboarding, yoga, self-actualization) for nearly my entire adult life, co-facilitating personal growth workshops, breathwork ceremonies, men’s circles and now teaching yoga. My training is in Ashtanga yoga, so classes typically include a number of limbs beyond asana / physical poses, including pranayama (breathwork) & meditation. My classes are both light hearted & deeply reverent."
