If you didn't already know, I am at quite a cross-roads in my business. I have spent over a decade branding "The Gentle Way of Hatha." Over the years classes have filled, we had a pandemic that cut my business in half, and then transformed it with online services, and as the years pass life… Continue reading Online Yoga Canada

Yoga in Port Hope
Between 2006 and 2010 I had a lovely yoga space to teach from in Port Hope. I gave it up when I became pregnant, and moved to British Columbia.

Gentle Hatha Yoga on YouTube
How is the YouTube journey going so far? Oof! The quote "The more I know, the less I understand" applies well to this YouTube experience.

This was the video I watched if you are interested in learning more for your own business: Diary of a CEO with guest Kevin O'leary. I had never heard of this… Continue reading Signal vs Noise
2021
As we move into a new year, business is starting to look a little bit different than previous years. We have already had to condense classes, as well as transfer yoga back to zoom until the spring. How do you grow a business, during a time of minimizing? I'm still learning. I will continue to… Continue reading 2021
Pandemic and Yoga
Due to the recent spreading of Covid-19 into our area, I have been notified that we must suspend our yoga classes until further notice.
