our vision

We’re passionate about the process of self-exploration and hope to facilitate your experience in ways that are supportive and powerful. Wherever your connection with yourself begins, it will evolve when you’re in a robust environment that fosters curiosity and play.

making yoga accessible

To keep yoga accessible, inclusive, and to be of service to our community, we now offer a sliding scale program for our community. We understand that there are times that a yoga membership doesn’t fit into your budget. Please contact us to inquire so we can set you up. Although we have limited availability for this style of offering we will accommodate as many requests as we can. We believe everybody should have the chance to nourish their physical and mental health.

 

Immerse yourself in a space that was designed with nature in mind to evoke feelings of calm, focus and creativity. Nook Yoga was created to bring together those who love the practice and those who are curious about it.

your first class

  • Begin with our signature practice. The Classic is a set designed to be accessible yet challenging enough for those wishing to progress within a structured format. The practice is well-rounded which makes it sustainable as a daily practice it allows time to learn and explore every pose.

    Looking for a more relaxing experience? Try the Calm class for a greater emphasis on meditation and stretching.

  • It's hot (40 celsius 100 fahrenheit) and humid! We recommend minimal clothing and a water bottle. Some prefer a mat towel to help prevent slipping. Lay down and rest whenever you need to, it's much cooler by the floor.

    The first one is intense, your body will acclimate more efficiently the more you practice!

    We’ve got showers in the change rooms and dr. bromners foaming peppermint soap!

  • We’re located downtown and our entrance is on the lakeside.

    Downtown can get busy, come early to find parking in one of the nearby lots!

    Parking is free after 5pm and on weekends and holidays. It is also free to park in any parking lot that the Barrie resident pass is valid for; we are a short walk away from some of these lots.

    Our entrance is on the Lakeshore Mews lot which is just across from the Heritage Parking lot. These spaces are covered by the hotspot parking app.

  • Class always begins on time, please arrive early so that you don’t get locked out.

    It is recommended to bring a mat, towel and water with you to class. We have mats and mat towels available for rent and glass jars that you can grab and fill if you ever need to!

    We use mat markers to organize the space, the top left corner of your mat goes right over the marker. We ask that the practice space be kept silent and tech free (only your mat towel and water in the room with you).
