Testimonials

Being one of the only males in the group I attended I didn’t feel out of place and would definitely recommend it to more men. True success comes from spending some time on yourself and these classes one of the best I’ve done. Highly recommended.

I have had a fantastic experience having [Prana] in to lead mindfulness and meditation sessions each month with my team. Not only do the insights help their day to day work (managing stress, communicating, etc.) but moreover and overwhelmingly, the team has noted that the learnings have spilled into their personal life.

The monthly sessions have also provided a space and time for gathering and community, something that a high performing team needs.

It has been transformational for us.

Prana has helped to facilitate the University Students’ Council’s culture of wellness by educating our employees on stress management, yoga, deep breathing, meditation and coaching.

With Prana’s support and wealth of knowledge, we have been able to grow our Wellness Program, create a cultural change which allows us to live up to our mandate of offering a work-life balance. Prana Yoga & Wellness has been an outstanding partner in helping us achieve our goals, by reaching out to their network to help grow our various programs and has been vital to the continual success of it.

The yoga session held during our faculty retreat was a wonderful break in the day. It provided a great opportunity to stretch and relax in a peaceful setting, and left us feeling rejuvenated and ready to take on the rest of the day!

Great experience. Participating in the yoga and having it explained is very helpful. I enjoyed the wellness day and would recommend it to other organizations it was a great team building event.

Our company has been working with Prana Yoga for over two years, providing weekly classes to the Residents in our student housing community. Martina is an excellent instructor who is always friendly and welcoming to all participants.

Prana Yoga has been a great partnership for The MARQ Student Communities, adding a higher value to all those that chose to live at The MARQ.

Prana provided a 4 week/session (RE)Boot Camp to our military members and families in relation to Mental Health Week. Chantelle hosted four classes with focus points on tension, digestion, anxiety and depression.

Prana made each participant feel welcome. The tone and energy were both soothing and calming. Chantelle was extremely educated on the topics she discussed making the sessions educational and practical. Chantelle’s passion for what she does cannot be missed and we saw that exude from her at each class. We can’t wait to work with Prana again and we thank them for everything they have done to support our military families.

Thank you, Prana!

I found the breathing exercises to be relevant to daily life, easy to fit into your day and effective. I have used the techniques several times since [Prana] came to our office.

The sessions reinforced my own efforts towards mindfulness and, on the meditation side, were a potent reminder that I need to relax at times during the day-to-day and not simply during my daily allotted time away from work

I found [Prana’s yoga sessions] very relaxing, and it helped me de-clutter my brain and gave me some much needed me time.  I felt healthier because I was active.

As the chair of the wellness committee here at CARFAX (formerly CARPROOF) for the past 3-years, I can honestly attest to the fact that it can be somewhat difficult to get employees engaged in healthy activities. Therefore, trust me when I say that I was amazed that every single person who attended Chantelle’s initial session subsequently signed-up for the 4-week long meditation classes!

It was evident to both myself and my co-workers that Chantelle and Prana very clearly believe in what they preach & “walk-the-walk”- their peaceful yet extremely professional demeanour made an instant hit with all in attendance… but also left many of us feeling inspired to try something new.

We have enjoyed the amazing benefits of Prana yoga in our workplace for over four years. We are so fortunate to have two awesome instructors provide us with a much-needed break in our workday to breathe, take care of ourselves and return to work with more clarity.

Having workplace yoga takes away so much stress … no childcare needed, no disruption of family time, we don’t have to worry about parking, etc. An added benefit of Prana yoga is the ability to take the practice into our own lives on the days we are not on the mat with Laura or Heather. I highly recommend Prana in the workplace, our yoga practice has built strength awareness and harmony in our bodies.

I’m grateful for an amazing opportunity to be part of a yoga group which has been kindly donated to ANOVA from Prana Yoga Wellness. It has helped me to learn stress management techniques, the importance of deep breathing during the practice, and the connection between mind & body. The teachers are really dedicated and knowledgeable. They take time to educate one about yoga and are very helpful in ensuring that one is doing poses correctly. Also, I enjoyed that classes are not the same every time, there is always a variety of poses/different vibe to a class (can be focused on meditation piece or learning to hold your balance, etc.)

Thank you!

I have found it enjoyable to watch the women’s experiences doing yoga for the first time. I observed women feeling supported and positive after class. It is assisting the healing journey, thank you.

Chantelle provided great information and education around stress and how it affects us. She followed with ways to manage this that were easy and insightful. She provided a great day with different ways of presenting and working with the concepts. We took away concrete, usable tips and suggestions. Great day!!!!!

Chantelle has a natural ability to connect with everyone in the class and caters to all levels and abilities. I left each class feeling grounded and refreshed. I would highly recommend Chantelle and Prana Yoga Wellness!

It is so beneficial to take some time out of a stressful day to stretch, breathe and re-adjust the focus back to one of gratitude and acceptance.   Thank you Prana Yoga Wellness for coming to my workplace to make this happen for my colleagues and me.

An amazing opportunity to really just ‘be’ and to go within to recharge the battery.  It felt very safe to explore and try new things if you so desired. Chantelle’s brightness shines through in this work.

A relaxing and informative day for our team. We all left feeling refreshed and rejuvenated! An excellent introduction to mindfulness- thank you!

I can’t even begin to explain how many changes I can see in my future. I am now armed with healthy tips to enrich my life.
