A Sanctuary in the City: Discovery Centre at Downsview Park

This picturesque setting provides the perfect backdrop for a yoga experience that goes beyond the mat, allowing participants to truly immerse themselves in nature. Imagine the calming rustle of leaves, the gentle breeze, and the expansive green space enhancing your yoga practice.
Your Guide to Wellness: Jessica Nagy from Appleseed Yoga
We are thrilled to have Jessica Nagy (she/her), an accomplished and compassionate Toronto-based yoga instructor, lead this enriching workshop. Jessica, a mum herself, brings a special focus on guiding families in movement and connection. Her extensive experience spans prenatal yoga, yoga with babies, kids yoga in various educational settings, and, of course, family yoga. Drawing on a vibrant background in musical theatre, dance, and competitive sports, Jessica crafts a practice that is not only engaging and creative but also instills confidence with regular reminders that 'we can do hard things'. While the overview mentioned Faith Jones, Jessica Nagy is the primary instructor detailed for Appleseed Yoga, ensuring a high-quality and inspiring experience for all.
What to Expect: A Journey of Connection and Fun
This 60-minute English family yoga workshop is specially geared towards children aged 3 to 8 years old, though younger and older children are warmly welcome to join the family fun! During the session, Jessica will expertly guide you through:
- Breathing Techniques: Learn simple yet powerful techniques to calm the mind and energize the body.
- Yoga Poses: Explore accessible and engaging yoga poses designed for all ages and abilities.
- Interactive Games: Participate in playful activities that make learning yoga exciting and memorable.
