Welcome to PranaShanti Yoga Centre

 

In 1977, the United Nations General Assembly adopted a resolution calling on member states to proclaim a day for women's rights and international peace. Following the United Nations' lead, Canada chose March 8 as International Women's Day.

Each year at this time, Canadians celebrate progress toward equality for women, reflect on the challenges and barriers that remain, and consider future steps to achieving equality for all women, in all aspects of their lives.

This year, PranaShanti would like to give you the opportunity to reflect on the meaning of Women’s Day by honoring a special woman in your life. Is there a woman who has made a difference in your life? This could be a relative, neighbor, teacher or perhaps one of the Famous Five.

We will begin by remembering and acknowledging women who have made a difference in our individual lives and women who have changed our world. Next we will share in and dedicate a heart opening YIN YOGA practice to these celebrated women. The dedication of one’s practice to another is a simple yet powerful form of selfless giving. Let’s join together and give back to those who have so freely given to us.

NOTE: International Women's Day has been celebrated for more than 100 years. In that time, substantial progress has been made in advancing equality for women, and we recognize the critical role that women continue to play in the prosperity of Canada''s diverse communities.

Cost: $15.00 drop-in fee or use your PranaShanti class card.
