Weekend Guest Instructors:
Juliet Swiggum has been practicing various forms of yoga since 1998 and began teaching Kripalu Yoga in 2005. Her focus is on yoga as a source of both physical and spiritual satisfaction. Her gently challenging warm-ups and posture sequences encourage people to feel at home in their bodies as they deepen their flexibility, strength and capacity for true relaxation.
Barb Gormley is the owner of Toronto-based CustomFit Personal Training. She leads the 350 member First Canadian Place Walking Club, is the head walking coach for JeansMarines and is the Ontario Master Trainer for Nordic Walking company Urban Poling. Nordic Walking is a fun sport that uses walking poles to help propel you forward. It burns more calories than walking, and is ideal for all ages and fitness levels.
Mary Addison, RN, MSW, CSW has worked at Women’s College Hospital for the past 23 years in a variety of roles. She was the Co-Program Director of Women’s Health, Director of Social Work and the Sexual Assault/Domestic Violence Centre and the Clinical Program Specialist for the Midlife and Older Women’s Program. She is also a visual artist who enjoys using a variety of techniques. Mary will be using pastels, watercolours and acrylics as the media to discover new ways to see your world. The key word is to come and JUST ENJOY the experience.
Instructional sessions with Juliet Swiggum, Barb Gormley and Mary Addison are included in the weekend fee.
