Lisa Haylock - owner & instructor

 Namaste,

Yoga has been a passion of mine for as long as I can remember.  I have called Eight Limbs Yoga my home since it opened, and am delighted to be able to teach yoga and share my passion in this beautiful calm environment.

I am a graduate of the Traditional Yoga Foundation in India with RYT500 in accordance with the teachings of the purest Vedic traditions of Yoga. 

I have lived in Orillia most of my life, with my husband Marty. I look forward to meeting you in class.

After years battling postpartum and major depression Jenn turned to yoga in an effort to find inner peace and quiet at the suggestion of her therapist. She began attending classes at local studios choosing gentle and restorative classes. In the quiet, dimly lit room the healing began. A regular practice invited many hours and opportunity to sit and turn inwards. Jenn was drawn to the idea of teaching in hopes of inspiring clients of all shapes and sizes to discover that yoga is for everyone. Jenn completed her 200 hour teacher training in 2020 and her 500 hour training in June 2021. Jenn teaches from a trauma aware, body positive heart space. She loves to experiment with props and you can almost always expect a giggle (or two)!  

Cat O'Connor, YTT500, mom, writer, life lover… the gift of practicing yoga for the past 20 years, teaching for 10 and offering yoga retreats for 5, as well as sitting several Vipassana Meditation courses, writing and simply living a life with a curious & open mind, has led her to the realization, that it's really ALL yoga. Our life is our practice. Cat is beyond grateful to be able to share her gifts and passions with others; all with the intention of bringing yoga, creative expression and a higher level of joy & awareness to as many people as possible. Her primary style of teaching is Vinyasa, however she has come to love the practice and offering of yin and more restorative forms of yoga as well. Cat is also a Realtor with B.J. Roth, Century 21, helping her to continue her mission of bringing people home… To themselves, each other and to their dream house
