Hi... I'm Wendy Davies
I started to take yoga classes in 2008 for the flexibility benefits and quickly realized that yoga was so much more than just a physical practice.
Strength. Flexibility. Stress release. Confidence. Balance. Meditative. Being mindful and being present.
Then, I discovered a complimentary, simple and quiet style of yoga... Yin. And I loved it.
Yin Yoga has complimented my active Hatha Yoga practice and has helped me find balance in my everyday life.
I truly look forward to helping you realize what benefits Hatha and Yin Yoga have to offer for you!
I live in Courtenay, BC with my husband, and my cat, Ginny. I love being active - walking, cycling, hiking - and in addition to teaching yoga, I also enjoy beach-combing, being in the mountains, and kayaking (one of my favorite places is Tofino, B.C.). 
I am currently teaching Yoga (Hatha and Yin) at The Lewis Center in Courtenay and at The d'Esterre House in Comox. 
​
