19 · Thursday, January 21, 2010 OAKVILLE BEAVER · www.oakvillebeaver.com Health and Wellness Experience family friendly yoga at Prana Yoga & Wellness Studios Inc. Prana Yoga & Wellness Studios Inc. is a full service facility focused on providing classes and wellness services for the entire family. Shannon Holmes owner and instructor explains "I have taught at many different facilities and had noticed a lack of family support within them. Having kids myself, I wanted a facility that still embodied all of the yoga principles, but within a family environment." Prana has three yoga studios, two for regular classes and one therapy studio that is still under construction, which once completed will come equipped with a rope wall. "What makes us stand out against the many other facilities in town is that we offer child minding services allowing parents to feel at ease during their classes." The studio has classes for everyone ­ children and adults, as well as athletes, Holmes explains. "We truly are a yoga studio that has something for everyone, but our main focus is still on our clients getting a proper and personal practice, no matter where they are in life." The studio also has two treatment rooms where they offer wellness services for the whole family including massage, acupuncture and reflexology to lactation consultation to osteopathy, and many more. Having the right instructors is extremely important for Holmes. "I am extremely critical when it comes to selecting qualified, knowledgeable instructors," she says. "Plus all our instructors know how to properly deal with most physical situations that come into the studio." The studio, though open for business now, will be celebrating its grand opening on Monday, February 15 ­ Family Day. "Family Day embodies everything we want the studio to stand for," Holmes says. "We will have all-day events for the whole family including workshops, speakers, belly dancing performances and classes, as well as yoga classes to live drumming and Nia. This is the time to come in and get to know us and everyone on our team." One of the misconceptions people often have about yoga is that you have to be flexible to do it, Holmes explains. "You do yoga to become flexible."
