This is where we SHINE! The Yoga Journey Collingwood Studio, conveniently located near downtown Collingwood, is a well equipped, warm, welcoming space to expand your yoga experience.
Lori and her students have worked together to perfect the online yoga experience! Online classes are great for when we are unable to gather, when you’re pressed for time or when you prefer to practice from the comfort of your home.
Looking for workshops, sadhanas (practice intensives), outdoor classes and other yogic practices? Check out our Events page. Iyengar yoga is steeped in the classical practice of yoga and celebrates all of its limbs.
Lori Berenz is the founder and Director of Yoga Journey, a Collingwood-based Iyengar yoga studio. Lori began her own yoga journey in 1998, studying alongside senior Iyengar Yoga teachers. After 15 years working in Human Resources, Lori’s love of yoga took over and she left her corporate career to begin teaching full-time in 2004. A Certified Iyengar Yoga Teacher- Level 3, Lori draws on her own personal experiences to work with each individual student, challenging them to incorporate yogic practices into their everyday life.
Lori is truly grateful for the gift of yoga and is passionate about sharing her gift with others.
“Yoga allows you to find a new kind of freedom that you may not have known ever existed.” – BKS Iyengar
In contrast to the way that yoga is usually portrayed, Iyengar Yoga’s focus is not about flow. Instead it emphasizes the importance of regulated breathing; the use of blocks, chairs, and other props; and the therapeutic value of adapting the poses to the needs of individual students.
Iyengar yoga focuses on each student maximizing their individual abilities taking into account their body type and physical needs – instead of keeping up with the advanced students in the class – through carefully guided correct alignment and right actions. The result is a deep rooted flexibility, strength, stamina and balance.
Community is at the heart of Yoga Journey Collingwood. If you are looking for an uptight, competitive studio, this is not it!
The sense of community we have developed here is sacred to all of us. No matter what level you are at, or which lineage you subscribe to, the Iyengar practice combined with our community vibe, will welcome you in and support you on your own yoga journey.
Come and experience the community, welcoming and healing vibes at Yoga Journey Collingwood.
