I’ve been teaching yoga since 2016 and practicing for more than ten years.  I initially fell in love with yoga as a way to express myself, as I struggled as a young person to connect to, and appreciate, my body. It was through the teachers I had the pleasure to learn from that I gained deep self-acceptance; I hoped one day that I would also be able to teach and share what I had initially gained through the practice. Upon completing my 200-hour teacher training, I became profoundly aligned with the philosophy and spiritual teachings, and became more confident in my whole self.
 
In every studio space, I focus on being in service to the participants in the room, striving to be your guide and not your teacher. I try to remind everyone that they are the experts of their body and experience. I see my role primarily as creating a space for everyone to explore and be curious about how they take up space, what feels intuitive to them, and to listen to the lessons coming from within.

As I have added more movement modalities to my practice, one thing has become clear to me. Yoga Asana, Pilates, Weight lifting... however you choose to move is exactly correct. Most recently, I have been nurturing a personal weight lifting and running practice.

In September 2024, I bade a loving farewell to Toronto, my home since birth, and moved with my husband to Saskatoon. While I will miss my Toronto movement family immensely, I so look forward to meeting the yogis, lifters, fitness freaks and Sunday strollers in SK.

Thank you for taking an interest in me and my classes. I hope to see you soon on the mat.

​- Liz

Testimonials

I am so grateful to Liz for being my spiritual and physical guide over the last few months. She is a wonderful instructor and a beautiful human being. Each class is full of both intention and creativity. I have made a lot of progress within my own practice and I greatly appreciate how she teaches us how to approach new poses and experiences in life. I would highly recommend Liz to anybody looking to learn at any level with Yoga. - ​Bethel L.

I never could get into yoga, I tried it many times but I found it to be more frustrating than helpful. Liz not only helped me to get past these issues, she helped me to view the practice of yoga in a totally different manner than I had. She is attentive to each one of her students and their level of practice, guiding you through the poses with fluid description, and teaching proper form of the body so I was able to learn and practice poses in a way I was never taught before, which was a real game changer. She comes to class with an open heart and mind and paces the class appropriate to the level of her students. She is supportive if you are just starting out, or if you feel like challenging yourself. Liz has taught me an understanding of the body I never had before and now use everyday. I would absolutely recommend practicing with her, she is an amazing teacher! - Eva C.

My first class back after giving birth for the second time was with Liz.  She met me where I was at which completely baffled me since I didn't even know.  She continued to do this time and time again with an open heart. ​- Megan S.

Liz is a great instructor, very thorough in her explanations and makes sure there is an option for every level of yogi so no one gets left out. She radiates positivity and gratitude which makes her an amazing guide through your practice. You leave feeling at peace but still energized. 10/10, would recommend, even to a stranger. - ​Zoe Z.

Liz taught me throughout my first pregnancy, and a few classes postpartum. I was then lucky enough to attend a class of hers during my second pregnancy. At every stage, she was extremely thoughtful in the way she guided her classes, and very attentive to the specific needs and challenges of pregnancy and postpartum, always ensuring her students were safe and supported. Liz brings a gentle energy and presence that is comforting and calming, while simultaneously motivating to push your practice a little deeper. It’s been awhile since I’ve had her as a teacher, but she sticks out in my mind as one of the good ones. She is genuine and you can tell she truly cares about what she does. - ​Caitlin B.

Liz offers spectacular guidance to get me into my body and focusing on the dynamics of my breath. She offers lots of modifications, options to chill or options to strengthen. She really encourages vocalization in her classes, which I normally don’t do and am not comfortable with, but I take part in (at first begrudgingly and then with abandon) when I practice with Liz. ​- Martha B.

Liz is such a warm, welcoming, and fun instructor. She has immense joy for what the human body is capable of, and will work with you and your body to build an energizing, invigorating, and restorative practice that fits your needs and goals. I’ve been taught by Liz many times and I never once felt judged or pushed too far, and I always felt safe—both emotionally and physically. Because she is so passionate about the physics of the human body, her practice is grounded in a strong understanding of how to safely align the body in each pose which not only gave me confidence that I was doing the right thing, but it allowed me to explore the emotional/spiritual aspect of the practice as well, and observe what was happening inside my body. With Liz, I have found myself willing to try new poses that I have been hesitant to try with others, and a big part of that comes from the feeling that she always had my back. ​- Margaret H.
