200 Hr: A Few Spots Remain
We have a few spots available in our upcoming 200 hour Fundamentals Yoga Education training, beginning in March 2015. We’d love to hear from you if you’re still considering applying for this program. Email to sign up.
Coffee House for Scholarship Fund
A group of our recent 200 hour program graduates are hosting a Coffee House event to support our Octopus Garden Yoga Teacher Training Scholarship Fund.
Join us at the Flying Pony, 1481 Gerrard Street East on Saturday, March 7th from 7pm until close. Listen to some great music, have a coffee/beverage and support OG.
Cost is $5 donation at the door.
Trusting Movement
Join Taeji for a dynamic movement practice on Sunday afternoon. Consider movement in a whole new way.
Pop-up Level 3 Class
Join Scott Davis for a pop-up Level 3 class.
Going Deeper
Join Elisse Peltz and Pat Harada Linfoot in Going Deeper. Over the four sessions (held once per month), we will explore the emotional body as it pertains to asana, pranayama, meditation and psychology.
This series will be a journey exploring the inner geography of our body, mind and mood. We will examine families of poses and their emotional archetypes in order to face, meet and transform our emotions. If emotions are the currency of intimacy, can we learn to relate to rather than from our reactivity? Movement, stillness, and relationship will be the templates we use to fully inhabit ourselves.
Intention and attention will inspire our themes this month (Jan 30) of safety and containment.

Starting January 15th, 2015 and running every second Thursday until end of April, you can book a 30-min session between 2:00 and 6:00pm.

Have you had your Initial Consultation?
One of the benefits of being a Member at Octopus Garden is a 15-minute Initial Consultation. This consultation allows you to meet with us one-on-one in order to discuss your needs and intentions for practice. We are looking forward to getting to know each one of you individually, and the Initial Consultation represents a first step in this process.
The Initial Consultation is available to people who have signed up for our $90-a-month Membership Program. To learn more about the benefits of Membership, please visit our Services page.
Before you book a time for your Initial Consultation, please fill out and submit a short, on-line questionnaire. This questionnaire will allow us to serve you more effectively when you come in to meet with us.
To book your Initial Consultation, look at our appointments schedule and select an available time.
Please note: If you need to cancel an appointment, we require 24 hours notice. Initial Consultations may be rescheduled only if this notice is received.
