Spotted @ Moksha Yoga Etobicoke
1138 The Queensway
Who: Marlison attended Cathy's 75 minute Moksha class. Cathy is one of our kicka** ambassadors at lululemon Sherway Gardens and the co-owner of Moksha Yoga Eotbicoke. A positive and inspirational teacher, Cathy strives to teach to her students that a regular practice of yoga can help bring peace and calm off the mat and out into the world with them. Furthermore, she has the wholehearted belief that yoga can "bring about world peace, one sweaty mat at a time"! When she's not practicing world peace, she's a performing artist with work experience in theatre, film, and television - what a star!
What: Moksha with Cathy
Moksha yoga is a 40-posture series intended to open, strengthen and detoxify the entire body. A slower paced class focused more on individual poses as opposed to flow, this hot yoga series will bring you through savasana (a relaxation pose where our expectations fall away), intention setting (where we set our focus to achieve our goals), standing series (a cardiovascular set of postures to build strength & stability), floor series (where we relieve tension, improve posture and maintain a healthy spine), followed by a final savasana (a final relaxation after warming, strengthening and opening the body).

Wore: Alison & Marlene pulled the twin card again! The new Flow & Go Tank in Pop Orange was their top of choice. Made with Diamond Mesh, a moisture wicking material with great stretch and shape retension, this top is perfect for hot yoga. Plus, the open back not only kept us cool as we worked up a sweat, but is flattering as well! We paired it up with Boogie Shorts and Wunder Under Crops.
When: Cathy teaches classes regularly throughout the week. Check the online schedule for details!
Why Moksha:
The motto of Moksha Yoga is "Calm mind. Fit Body. Inspired Life." Moksha teachers truly stand behind this statement, as they are always learning new ways to help students enjoy a more fun, healthy, and stress free life. A Moksha class differs from that of other yoga styles, because it is a slower practice focused on relaxation and peace. The instant you step into a studio, you enter an environment where you can take time to focus on yourself. The studio itself has full length mirrors that allow students to really focus on their alignment and posture. A more meditative form of yoga practice, Moksha allows you to do things at your own pace - come as early or stay as long as you want in savasana! To top off the relaxing atmosphere, we love to enjoy some post-practice tea or a refreshing clementine.
