TEAM BIO

ASHLEY GRAHAM

COMMUNITY TEACHER

Ash’s yoga journey started at Modo in 2016.  After a month, he knew he wanted to be a teacher and booked his first training.  He started teaching in 2017 and fell deeper in love with yoga and its benefits.  Upon completion of his first teacher training he wanted to deepen his understanding of this beautiful practice and immediately signed up for his second 500 hr certification.  Coming from a background in martial arts he does his best to bridge both the physical and mental attributes together topped with some light humour making for a challenging class with the odd smile.
“If I can get my students to do one thing it would be to take their conscious breath from their mat with them out into the world where it matters most.”

In an update to the order and direction of the Pro In an update to the order and direction of the Provincial Health Officer, all yoga studios are to suspend group classes while new guidance is being developed. Our physical studio will become our virtual studio. If you have registered for in-studio classes, you have been removed from those classes. We are humbled by the experience of closing our doors to the physical studio yet again.  Starting Wednesday November 25, we will offer a variety of livestream classes and will continue to upload new content to our LAB+home video library. Stay tuned for more information. We’ve had time to dream up a future for our Yoga Lab community and are inspired by the many benefits that at-home classes have provided our students. We’re asking our dedicated community to please continue to invest in our individual and collective wellbeing. If you are in a financial position to do so, please keep your membership active. All monthly autopay members (SunRISE+ and LiveWELL+) will receive an email with specific membership details, and are being directed to LAB+home. May we all find the magic in this time and reconnect to ourselves in a deeper and more expansive way than we’ve yet to know. Yoga Lab Community

A fresh new day with just a touch of sunshine brin A fresh new day with just a touch of sunshine brings forward opportunity. Yesterday we were ordered to close because we offer hot yoga classes which is one of the 3 styles classified as  ‘intense exercise’ in the provincial health order. We’re back up! Based on the parameters that allow for fitness and recreation centers to continue operating and our strict COVID protocols already in place, we will reopen the studio tomorrow, Saturday November 21 with a full class schedule. In the coming weeks, we’ll be adding in new styles and adjusting our Roots sequence to continue to give you that nourishing, challenging and fulfilling experience you love! Things to know: 1. All classes will be offered at a comfortable room temperature. 2. Masks are mandatory throughout the studio and during practice. It is a simple way to take care of each other and the spaces we share. 3. All existing class registrations are still in place. Please cancel through the app if you are no longer able to attend. Our safety protocols have been updated and are mandatory, please review them via the link in bio. We look forward to seeing the sparkle in your eyes tomorrow and to be back in community again!
