Toronto Yoga Mamas

I started to go to Toronto Yoga Mamas since I was in my second trimester. The studio is extremely clean and relaxing. I always looked forward to coming to each class as I always left more relaxed and rejuvenated. They provide all the equipment so you can literally arrive after a busy day. Using the MindBody app to schedule classes also made it really easy to attend. Now that my little boy has arrived I look forward to attending more yoga babies classes! Classes are a good size and not too crowded.

I first joined this magical studio last Summer at the very start of my second trimester for prenatal classes and now for Mama/​Baby yoga. It has truly become my favorite place to be (other than home), I was and still am blown away for so many reasons. For starters, every single staff member from the front desk sweethearts, massage therapists (MELANIE — INCREDIBLE!), the many amazing Instructors and of course Jamie, the Founder and Director are all exceptional. So warm, so helpful, so knowledgeable, so everything. As far as the actual Studio — stunning, bright and always pristine. I have seriously never seen a speck of dust in this place!
Jamie and her staff have truly thought of everything to make your experience as enjoyable as possible. It’s the little things that count. From the gorgeous hand soaps and lotions in the washrooms to the fresh lemon water and hot David’s tea before class, to the gorgeous Mama and Baby shops (always filled with little gems), to the Karma book library, to the array of classes and class times. Not to mention oodles of special workshops geared towards Mom’s and babies. I can go on and on…
My baby girl and I give this studio 5 stars, hand down!!!

Clean and welcoming space! Excellent instructors :) The place is peaceful and tranquil, total zen! I highly recommend Toronto Yoga Mamas

Such a beautiful environment to be a part of. The staff are all so welcoming and It’s a great place to talk to other Mammas. I started taking prenatal classes when I was 14 weeks pregnant and now love taking my little one to baby yoga with me. The facilities have everything that you need, so you don’t have to lug any extra weight around;)

Toronto Yoga Mamas is a sanctuary for all moms (expecting and new moms)…they are super accommodating, offer high quality programming and love spending time in the beautiful space as well. They have done a fabulous job creating a highly tailored and meaningful /​memorable experience for their clients e.g. pre natal yoga, lots of workshops on topics like nutrition, doula offerings, etc. Thanks for making this time extra special as a 1^st time expecting mom. #lovetym

This is my home away from home. Seriously, I am at this studio almost every single day. Why? Because it is the first studio that ever made me feel like family (you know how the yogis are always talking about that?). The classes are warm and fun and wonderful and the instructors are all great. Plus they have free tea! And the class packages are totally reasonable.
Honestly, TYM saved me during pregnancy. I was so sad to know that my prenatal journey was over. until I tried the baby classes. My LO and I have a great time every time we go and she is so peaceful afterwards. Plus it is a no pressure zone. You are encouraged to take it easy, or just chill and breastfeed… to do whatever you need to do to have some peace in that hour. And EVERYTHING is there for you. You don’t have to worry about lugging anything more than your belly or your baby which is a bonus.
The community is really strong and I have met a lot of new mom friends here, I have no idea what I would do without them.
Highly recommended.

Beautiful yoga studio! I look forward to my prenatal yoga class each week. Love Taylor and her classes. This place is highly recommended for all mommies to be.

Good yoga instructors, always enjoy the sessions there. They’re not great with tracking payments though, three times after a session I was asked to pay even though I had already. Fortunately, I had receipts each time to show them. I also think they should put down soft tiles on the floor for the babies leaning to sit. We know they topple over a lot at that stage and in this studio, the floors are concrete. They have small rugs for them, but it’s not enough padding on the hard floors for the wee ones.

Toronto Yoga Mamas has been a godsend to me during my pregnancy and has really helped with the aches and pains I’ve been experiencing.
I came across their studio when looking for prenatal activities in the Leslieville area and decided to go with their yoga offerings as I liked their schedule and format — you can book as many or as few classes as you’d like in any time slot/​day of week vs. other places that restrict you to a fixed number of weeks at a fixed time.
Their online scheduling system is excellent as are their class offerings and their pricing structure. The studio itself is beautiful, very zen, and they provide everything you could possibly need to be comfortable during class (mats, water, props, blankets, etc.).
I also appreciate that postures change from week to week to prevent boredom and that each instructor offers a slightly different style to their class — I find Meg’s classes to be a bit more relaxing/​meditative and Jamie’s to be a bit more of a physical challenge (in a good way). With one instructor trained as a doula and another pregnant herself, they really understand the physical changes women’s bodies undergo during pregnancy and provide modifications to each pose to suit individual comfort levels.
They also offer a lot of specialty workshops (e.g., baby bump photo sessions, hypobirthing seminars, infant CPR, etc.) and post-​natal/​family yoga classes.
One last thing I’d like to mention — you can really tell that the owner, Jamie, cares about and is dedicated to her clients and her business. I tweeted something jokingly about class being a little too full and she contacted me personally to follow up. She definitely went above and beyond.
Going to go online now to prebook my classes before people read my review and classes get filled up… :)

Absolutely wonderful studio, stellar instructors who will guide you through poses that are both comfortable and challenging. Prices are fair, especially since this studio offers specialty classes. I am so glad that I found this gem in Leslieville :)

Jamie’s prenatal yoga class was my favourite. Unlike other prenatal classes, Jamie teaches a well rounded class that includes strength, stretch and relaxation. It was important to me to continue with safe strength training during pregnancy. I also needed a really good stretch. I got both in her classes; whereas many prenatal yoga classes only focus on the stretching aspect of yoga. She also cultivates a warm environment in which new mamas can talk about their progress in pregnancy. I left her yoga classes feeling like I did my bodyand my baby good.
