Pumpkin Spice and Candlelight Yoga - Yin Yoga

Join us for an uplifting yoga experience led by our talented yoga instructor, Navjit Kaur, in our indoor tropical water garden oasis at Aquatopia Conservatory. Feel the healing power of our lush greenery and cascading waterfalls. Relax, restore and revitalize your entire being, in our glass enclosed resort-like retreat under the winter night sky.

As yoga promotes mindful eating to purify the body and mind, we will compliment your wellness journey with a delicious light pumpkin inspired vegan snack and smoothie for everyone to enjoy - all catered in house by our executive chef, Neil Mather.

Navjit Kaur is the founder and director of the award-winning Yoga & Tea Studio she opened in Ottawa's Carp Village in 2008. Born in India, but having lived her whole life in Canada, her study and practice of yoga for over 20 years has allowed her to embrace the wisdom that both the East and West offer to the practice. As a mom, wife, Professional Engineer, and entrepreneur, Navjit Kaur knows how life can get busy and so she enjoys sharing ancient yoga philosophy and techniques in her classes and relating them to modern day issues such as stress, health and relationships. Navjit Kaur has been teaching since 2005, and currently trains those interested in certifying to become yoga teachers themselves. Her approach to teaching yoga is to make classes accessible for everyone, and to provide an opportunity for each person to be challenged in their own way, to heal and to excel.

Increases circulation in the joints and improves flexibility by targeting the connective tissues of the hips, pelvis and lower spine.

Yin Yoga is a more passive approach of practicing yoga in the sense that you explore the shape of a pose for a long duration to allow for time and gravity to help target the connective tissues of the hips, pelvis and lower spine. This style of yoga gently allows these tissues to stretch, facilitating better circulation, joint health and improving flexibility. Yin Yoga allows you to slow down and be present in the moment. It gives you time to work to your own level of challenge in a pose and focus on exploring sensations in your body as you go deeper into the stretch. It provides you with a journey towards inner stillness which can help you to let go of both physical and mental tension!
