Our mission is to focus on how you feel, not what you look like - which is the opposite of a lot of fitness spaces that exist with a historical narrative on how we experience exercise.

Our intention is to show you how you are worthy exactly as you are, not based on your looks or how productive you are (externality)

Our goal is to support you in intentional living. This stems from mindfulness, consciousness, and curiosity.

We intend to operate our business with a social lens - to be an example that we can support our community so other businesses can do the same.

Most importantly, we hope to hold space so that you can be present with yourself fully, in community.

It’s an honour to be recognized in this way. Thank you so much for this acknowledgement, what a surprise.

We are so grateful for the continued support from our community.

Thank you thank you thank you 💕

Fill in the blank: This weekend, I am grateful for ______.

A study conducted by UCLA Health showed taking a moment to express gratitude gently activates the parasympathetic nervous system, which nurtures our ability to rest and digest. This powerful response helps lower blood pressure, heart rate, and breathing, inviting a deeper sense of relaxation and well-being.

To summarize: gratitude is good for your health 🫀

A reminder we have a reduced schedule Sunday and are closed Monday, October 14 for Thanksgiving.

It’s that time of year again.

At The Practice, Somatics are a cornerstone of every class.

What are Somatics? We take an approach that empowers self-autonomy by intentionally releasing emotions built up within the body to create transformative mind-body harmony. This allows you to:

✨Unlock vitality
✨Break free from chronic stress
✨Embrace resilience
✨Prioritize your well-being

Remember, emotions are energy in motion. But what if we met them through curiosity? What if we allowed ourselves to simply exist without being tied to expectation or judgment?

Try it out for yourself. Step on your mat with us and begin your journey to balance.

✨NEW COLLECTION DROP✨

The head & the heart tee

Cropped & full version available.

In practice we reflect on matters of the head and the heart. What’s the story and what’s our truth?

This t-shirt was lovingly designed with that in mind, a reminder that our choice of who we are is available at all times.

And when in question, give either a little shake. A little move. A common saying in practice “when in doubt, shake it out”.

Both variations are available for preorder with a savings of 15% until September 6th.
