This is my new location here in Victoria BC Canada. The AMAZING Atlas Health Therapy Centre. Here is what my service page on their website says:
The physical practices of stretching, breathing, and deep relaxation bring about a natural balance of body and mind and help to sustain and enrich the quality of your life at any age.
Each yoga session is lead by Tara Leigh, a direct student of Allaine Stricklen, (creator of Gentle Therapeutics Yoga), who uses this style to help you prefect the alignment of your postures. Sessions include hands-on passive stretching, massage, and muscle manipulation of particular areas to enhance muscle length and improve circulation.
Because your session are customized specifically for you, a thorough assessment of your body alignment and function will take place on your initial visit. Your personalized program will take into account your history of injuries, your physical condition, and your personal goals. From there we will develop a yoga routine and a program that can be maintained at home.

Little Yogi Classes. Yoga is amazing and fun for children of all ages! According to the Yoga Journal: Children derive enormous benefits from yoga. Physically, it enhances their flexibility, strength, coordination, and body awareness. In addition, their concentration and sense of calmness and relaxation improves. Doing yoga, children exercise, play, connect more deeply with the inner self, and develop an intimate relationship with the natural world that surrounds them. Yoga brings that marvelous inner light that all children have to the surface.
Power Yoga. Are you looking to build strength one on one with me. Are you wanting to find that fantastic inner power? Do you want more energy? Do you want to transform your body in ways you never thought possible before without the risk of injuries that often other conventional boot camp high impact fitness classes can cause? Then POWER it up with me. I was certified in Miami by rock hard yogi bodies focusing on strength training through correct posture and alignment. In this practice we move quickly: Power Yoga is definitely an intense workout. Prepare to work hard and work up a sweat! In Power Yoga, you lift and hold your entire body’s weight constantly. These classes incorporate a serious number of Vinyasas, and they’re definitely going to get your entire body into gear. For one, your arms will definitely feel the burn from all those Chaturangas! It makes you feel energized: Power Yoga classes always leave you feeling calm but with an extra little skip in my step!
Couples Yoga. Couples yoga is the perfect to introduce partner yoga into your relationship. Practicing yoga with your significant other helps to bring your relationship into balance. I my couples yoga session I focus on poses that help build companionship, trust, compassion, intimacy, and so much more. Sharing your yoga practice together, while extra challenging (as well as extra rewarding!) at times, shows a mutual respect for the holistic health and wellness of both yourself and your partner too. It isn’t difficult, but, it can be challenging of course as any yoga practice can. That said, as with all yoga practices (individual, partner, class, etc.) you can also go at your own pace, and there are always opportunities to create an individualized practice that will work for you and your partner. The results bring you together in a very special way.
Partner Yoga. Practicing together with your sister, your cousin, your BFF or even you life partner is FUN ! Traditionally, yoga is seen as an individual practice, but Partner Yoga brings people together through movement, play, breath and touch. It can be practiced by any two people and is a great way to strengthen a relationship by fostering trust and communication. Partners rely on each other’s support to keep correct body alignment, balance and focus in a posture. When you feel physically supported, not only do you experience a yoga posture differently, but you also begin to allow yourself to trust and laugh someone else, and laughter is the most healing thing of all. Partner Yoga is an exhilarating and challenging practice. But don’t just take my word for it-try it for yourself!
