“My passion is to help people gain improved health and mind-body awareness one yoga practice at a time. The Studio is a place for you to meet yourself, and be a part of a community of people. If you’re healthy and/or challenged by injuries, stress, chronic lifestyle disease, body weight (over or under) then come take a class and feel the difference in your level of energy, vitality, and well-being. You’ll feel great, look great, and live greater! " Hannah Park, Director

 

 

 

 

 

Each instructor has been certified upon successful completion of an intensive program of more than 500 hours of study immersed in nine weeks of in-depth study of Bikram Yoga with Yoga Masters Bikram and Rajashree Choudhury, and their staff of senior teachers at the Yoga College of India, Los Angeles. 

The course is an introduction to the basic knowledge needed to begin teaching this powerful healing yoga, and an opportunity to acquire the tools to begin teaching Bikram's Beginning Yoga Class. Having learned to instruct this powerful yoga class, all our instructors have an opportunity to share the life-enhancing benefits of this yoga with others, and a solid foundation for the lifetime journey of becoming a yoga teacher. 

 

Teacher bios

Everything we do becomes yoga when done with awareness.  Awareness allows us to feel and experience connection

Our instructors emphasize awareness and technique.  We want to support students’ growth both inside and outside of the yoga room

I have been practicing for about 4 years and practiced in at least 2 other countries and have tried other yoga too; some hot, and some not. What is consistent and outstanding is the calibre of instructors at Bikram Yoga Marda Loop. Each and every one is Excellent. We are fortunate to have the quality of instruction available right here in Calgary.

If a sound arises out of silence and disappears into silence then silence is always there beneath sound. Silence is the space where sound can exist.

I started to practice Bikram Yoga Fall 2004, and graduated from teacher training in Spring 2005.  I became a teacher to create a studio space of healing and love

I practice to improve my mind, and my body.  Often, they do not work together. I was told I had to heal my mind to heal my body/spine. It has been a long journey due to my stubbornness. As I listen to the teacher, I seek inner silence to hear the voice of my intuition & messages from my body. Not listening, had added to my physical problems. Silence and mindful movement is my path home, to self

When I teach I use the teaching dialogue to give instruction however; there is also an inner dialogue that each practitioner creates. My favorite thing about teaching is to harmonize the outer and inner dialogue by keeping the concentration and focus on the posture as a tool to be in the present moment so we can:

  • Mindfully coordinate movement with breath

  • Hold a posture in stillness

  • Pay attention (or notice when we don't)

  • Experience silence to calm the mind and rejuvenate the body

  • Leave feeling vibrant and connected

  • Discover yourself

Come join a class so we can practice together

Hi, I'm Mabel! I took my first Bikram class in the spring of 2008 while living in London England. After the first class I was hooked, I was suffering from a frozen shoulder and chronic back issues from a car accident about 10 years prior. Following that first class, I was amazed at how much more mobility I had, I knew I wanted more of this crazy hot room stuff and signed up for a 30 day challenge, persistence and perseverance got me through it and that's how I'd still describe my journey now. After moving countries and having a child, I became a Certified Bikram yoga teacher in spring 2015, and have enjoyed teaching in Denmark, Indonesia and Canada ever since. In January 2018 I became a fully certified Inferno Hot Pilates teacher (Levels 1 and 2) and a Yin yoga teacher too, as it all compliments each other. See you soon!
