About
My name is Nafisa (she/her), and I'm a movement & mindfulness educator.
My journey with yoga began when my mind was crowded and I couldn’t find the pause button. I was living in unconscious autopilot, repeating behaviours that didn't serve me. Yoga & meditation trained me to slow down and it brought a sense of play back into my life.
​
This practice keeps me curious and ever-learning. I am most passionate about the relationship between movement & joy - how together they drive self-expression, heighten mind-body connection, and often encourage the coming together of community.
I offer both active movement classes, as well those that are slower in nature. Movement-based classes involve the practice of physical postures (asana)
in conjunction with breath awareness. Depending on your needs, classes can
range from stretching & joint mobilization to faster flow sequences.
​
The practice of yoga is multi-layered, extending well beyond asana. For those interested in diving inward and exploring stillness, I also offer practices such as meditation, breathwork, and yoga nidra.

What to Expect?
It is core to my belief system that yoga & meditation are for everybody and every body. I do my best to ensure accessibility is at the forefront of how any class is planned and guided, with options and variations shared throughout.
​
Classes are designed to be playful in nature, with laughter and self-compassion sprinkled through each practice. I aim to create an inclusive and welcoming space, meeting you where you are and as you are today. Classes encourage self-reflection & curiosity to empower you to move in a way that feels intuitive and right for you.
Classes can be in-person or virtual; those offered virtually can be live or pre-recorded. A silver lining of the virtual era is also that we aren't confined to any geographical boundaries!
