To experience the real deal of a classical ballet class, start first at "à la barre," or, let’s call it "ground zero," as every dancer starts their routine this way each class, no matter if they’re a beginner or a very experienced dancer.
The barre
- A great way to learn more about your posture while stretching and toning muscles at the ballet barre
- Balance is often a very difficult thing to achieve straight off in the centre of a room; it requires a lot of strength to pull up and make your way through various movements. This technique will enable you to do more with a hand gently placed on a barre for assistance. Does that sound good? Well, it's still very challenging, but it's a great way to get a lot of stretching in while working on your ballet form!
- Those muscles someone mentioned? Now you will feel them as you purposefully elongate muscles and tendons alike, while strengthening your positions.
- This class is approximately 45 minutes for barre work, and the remainder will be centre work. This is where you get to use what you’ve learned, put it into practice and have some fun!
When: Mondays and Wednesdays, 4 – 5 p.m.
Location: SGW – Le Gym – Studio C
Instructor: Danielle Hubbard
Cost: Student $110 / Public $125

This slow, meditative class offers a grounding practice focused on stillness and deep tissue release. Unlike dynamic or strength-based yoga styles, Yin Yoga involves floor-based postures that are held for 3 to 5 minutes, targeting the body’s connective tissues such as fascia, ligaments and joints rather than muscles.
The long-held, passive poses allow the body to relax gradually and use gravity to apply gentle stress to the deeper layers of tissue. This can improve joint mobility, increase circulation and support overall tissue health. Yin also encourages mindfulness by inviting stillness and breath awareness, helping calm the nervous system, especially helpful at the end of a busy or overstimulating day. This class is especially beneficial for those recovering from high activity or burnout.
Individuals looking to support joint health and flexibility, people managing chronic tension or low back discomfort, and those healing from non-acute injuries such as repetitive strain or old sprains (with appropriate modifications). It is also ideal for anyone seeking stress relief, mental stillness or better sleep.
When: Mondays, 4:45 – 5:45 p.m.
Location: SGW – Le Gym – Studio D
Instructor: Lydia Marszal
Cost: Student $65 / Public $80
This class blends the slow, grounding elements of Yin Yoga with gentle, flowing movement to create a balanced and awakening practice. Beginning with soft, breath-led sequences inspired by Vinyasa, the class gradually transitions into longer-held Yin postures to target the deep connective tissues and calm the nervous system. The flowing portion helps warm up the body, increase circulation and build a light sense of energy and presence, while the Yin poses invite stillness, flexibility, and inner focus.
The pace is slow and intentional, with time to move mindfully and settle deeply. Ideal for mornings or times when you want to feel both gently energized and centered, this class is suitable for all levels. It’s especially supportive for those who want to improve mobility, release tension and start the day with a sense of clarity and ease. Props are used as needed to support comfort in longer holds.

Martial arts
Iaido (居合道) is a Japanese martial art associated with the smooth, controlled movements of drawing the sword from its scabbard, striking or cutting an opponent, removing blood from the blade, and then replacing the sword in the scabbard.
The word "iaido" approximately translates into English as "the way of mental presence and immediate reaction." Because iaidō teaches the use of actual metal weaponry, it is almost entirely based on the teaching of forms, or kata. Multiple-person kata do exist within some forms of iaido, but the iaidōka (practitioners of iaidō) will usually use bokken for such kata practice.

Try Savate Kickboxing for fitness, competition or just for fun. We have entry-level classes that are safe and enjoyable. We will teach you the skills you need to progress into one of our more challenging advanced classes. This kickboxing art involves a combination of effective hand strikes and dynamic kicks. Savate uses the hands and the whole shoe as a weapon for striking with force, finesse and precision.
The training sessions rely on partner drills, using controlled contact on each other, allowing the student to develop their balance, distance, precision and timing. This art is becoming more popular with women as it is graceful and elegant; however, with its powerful variety of kicks, punches, and sweeps, Boxe Francaise Savate is an effective sport fighting system.
Further explanations will be given in class on all the following subjects:
- Clothing that can be worn: kickboxing pants, shorts, T-shirts, etc. Note: Whatever the shirt type, it should be body fitting.
- Footwear: Preferably Savate shoes, wrestling shoes, boxing or indoor soccer shoes will do. Running shoes may also be used. However, the flatter the shoe the better.
- Gloves are required. Savate globes (SDI) or boxing gloves, no less than 12 ounces, ideal 14 ounces, increases depending on weight.
- Mouthpiece required.
- Handwraps and shin guards are highly recommended.
- Equipment can be purchased through the class; we have a supplier who manufactures good quality equipment at discount prices.

My spin classes incorporate traditional cardio rounds (known as HIIT) with Pilates-inspired strength training! When the 45 minutes is up, my goal is that you leave sweaty, strong and with increased mobility. This class is especially valuable if you are currently recovering from any minor injury but still want to get in some movement with minimal stress to your joints.

The majority of the class will consist of cardio in rounds, interspersed with arm, core, glute and back strength training to the music.
We will conclude each class with a cool down influenced by yoga!
Each week will be a different musical theme, ensuring that everyone has at least one favourite song we get to spin to! You can look forward to themes like sunshine throwback (2000’s), club classics, eighties, classic rap, grunge and 90’s punk, and so many more!
Recommended supplies:
- a water bottle, ideally with an easily accessible lid (non screw-cap)

- wrist weights, completely optional to increase the intensity of any arm and back exercises we do
