Teachers of Go.
Will
(he/him)
Will started practicing Yoga six years ago when he retired from his Toronto desk job. He uses his yoga practice to build strength and flexibility. He completed his 200 hour training with GoYoga in Orangeville and Costa Rica. His practice focuses on restorative and intermediate flows. He believes in making yoga accessible to every body.
Jackie V.
Jackie has always been curious about the body, healing, and movement but mainly from the physical perspective; improving athletes’ performance. Through her training as an Athletic Therapist and her graduate school research, Jackie began to understand that healing of injured tissue was more than biological and sought to “treat” her own injuries from running by way of mobility training. Through her own yoga practice, she has gained an appreciation for how it can influence not just the physical, but also the emotional and spiritual.
In 2023, Jackie did her yoga teacher training through GoYoga in Costa Rica. As a yoga teacher, Jackie incorporates a movement flow that focuses on mindfulness, expressions of strength, mobility, and balance but always coming back to her roots of improving performance; performance that is focused on individual, personal goals that expand beyond the biological. Jackie believes that yoga is for everyone, providing mental clarity, physical strength/mobility, and an opportunity to grow the self.
Off the mat, Jackie can be found spending time in nature with her beautiful canine companions and reading non-fiction “geeky” books to expand her knowledge of the human condition.
Lesley
(she/her)
Lesley discovered yoga sometime in the 1970s as a young girl practicing along with Lilias Yoga and You on TV. In 1998, she made the committment to a regular practice, and she has been teaching since 2020.
After experiencing a health crisis, her focus shifted from a primarily movement based practice to include more breathwork, meditation and the study of yoga philosophy. She has over 1000 hours of training in yoga, qi gong, breathwork, medititation, myo-fascia release (rolling), yoga nidrā, and yoga philosophy.
She is passionate about sharing the wellness benefits of movment and stillness to help others manage disease, injury, and stress.
In her classes, you’ll experience mindful movement, restorative yoga, and other rest practices. Yoga nidrā, a form of guided meditation, is her true love, and she’s thrilled to have the opportunity to share it with us here at GoYoga.
Katelyn
(she/her)
With nearly two decades of dedicated yoga practice under her belt, Katelyn’s journey began alongside her mother, a seasoned yoga instructor herself. Her passion for movement led her to explore various programs as a fitness instructor, culminating in a formal education in Kinesiology. Eager to deepen her understanding of holistic wellness, Katelyn pursued a master's degree in Occupational Therapy.
Four years ago, Katelyn embraced her calling as a yoga instructor, and discovered the transformative power of yoga as a therapeutic tool. In her classes, Katelyn strives to create inclusive, nurturing environments that foster physical, mental, and emotional strength.
Beyond the studio and clinic, you'll often find Katelyn amidst the beauty of nature, savouring precious moments with her cherished family.
