About Pigeon Lake Wellness Mobile Studio

The studio was always a place of connection, support and healing. Our sweet country studio offered a variety of retreats and special events all year round. I had to close the studio due to covid so I am now mobile and collaborating with a variety of amazing businesses!

I am now running classes, retreats and workshops at the lake, Rig Hand Distillery in Leduc and Prana Yoga Studio in Edmonton. I also have an affordable and accessible online studio of recorded classes available for you and offer weekly live zoom classes and challenges if you are looking for more connection and motivation!

I hope to see you on the mat soon! Janelle xo

About Janelle...

 My love of practicing yoga started back in 2001. I practiced for a long time before a major life event pushed me to dive deeper and I thought a teacher training would be perfect for the personal growth I was craving. It was definitely challenging for me and it changed my life.

I started teaching in 2009 and throughout the years I have seen that yoga has a way of elevating emotional well-being while also building overall strength, stability & mobility. And most importantly, it connects us to our breath, our constant support, and to live through the eyes of our soul and with an open heart. 
I have experienced burn out and yoga has been my saving grace in giving me tools to calm my nervous system down and bring my body back from chronic fatigue.

I teach in the hopes that I can help others experience the many health benefits that come from intentional movement. And that they feel lifted, loved, supported and cared for each time they step on to their mat. xo
