The Great Canadian Yoga Practice

Yoga for Canadians

It Β doesn’t have to be all serious, all the time! With Canadian Thanksgiving coming up, I thought it would be fun to do a “Canadian theme” yoga practice. Take off your cabin socks, roll out your mat and get ready because this is a super fun, heating yoga practice for all the Canadians out there (and friends of Canadians)Β
