Big Stretch Yoga

A small, intimate yoga centre that opened its doors in 1999, The Big Stretch is a warm, welcoming space that offers hatha yoga classes to all age groups. With candles and music, and a small group of instructors, classes are tailored to the dynamics of the group attending. Instructors focus on each student and his or her needs, challenges or injuries. The Big Stretch also offers corporate yoga, workshops and yoga retreats. In their classes, you slow down from your hectic schedules, allowing the breath to flow through the postures. Create balance by uniting opposites – effort and grace, stability and fluidity, strength and softness. Rather than just exercising, we can begin to connect the breath with body and mind, directing our attention inward.

Maybe you aren’t like all the other girls and your idea of inner peace involves releasing a little inner-agression. Toronto Newsgirls Boxing Club is the place for you to just leave it all in the ring. The mission of the Toronto Newsgirls Boxing Club is to provide a safe and positive space for women and trans people to explore the sport of boxing. The women’s program is tailored to members. Individuals come into the program with their own goals, it may be to get into better shape with no desire to get into the ring or it may be to become the next Laila Ali. We work with members to help them achieve their goals. For all members, the program offers a cardiovascular workout with technique in all areas of boxing- grounding, offense, defense, footwork and strategy. Bring it on.
