Description

Specialties

Moksha hot yoga is a unique yoga series that combines the precision of therapeutic yoga and the foundations of traditional yoga in a specially heated room. The series is a cardiovascular workout that strengthens, tones and loosens the muscles, while calming the mind and reducing stress.

The ‘hot’ in hot yoga allows for deep, safe stretching and promotes detoxification of the skin, blood and muscles through sweat. Classes are suitable for all levels of ability, even ABSOLUTE beginners with limited flexibility!

Come try us out and take advantage of our Introductory Offer — one month unlimited for only $ 40!

History

Established in 2011.

Moksha Yoga is more than a series of postures.

It began with the vision of two individuals and has since grown into a worldwide community with classes and studios around the globe.

We are a group of independent hot yoga studios committed to ethical, compassionate and environmentally conscious living, and believe that the benefits of yoga are limitless and accessible to all.

This family has evolved and flourished with the ideas, hard work and support of every Moksha Yoga studio owner, Moksha Yoga teacher and most importantly through a community of devoted students working on bettering the world on a subtle level — one sweaty yoga class at a time!

Meet the Business Owner

Jackie Q.

Business Owner

Jackie is probably one of the most organized people you will ever meet. Although without her notebook, calendars, and post-​it notes, she would be lost. She is friendly, generous and always laughing. Jackie has a warm, loving heart and is known amongst her friends as the «mom» because she is always looking out for everyone else. Following in the traits of her Cancer horoscope, she is usually guided by her emotions in any decision she makes. Becoming a Moksha yoga instructor was a natural progression for Jackie to share something she was passionate about with those around her.

Since completing the Moksha Yoga teacher training in Kerala, India in March 2009, Jackie has found a new appreciation for those around her and herself. In November 2010 she completed the Moksha Yoga Level 2 training in Costa Rica and in December 2011, the Moksha Flow training in Halifax.

Went there first time, the people were really friendly and helful there. They started off by giving me a tour of their rooms and amenities. Then they signed me in.
The only cons about this place is that they only have one classroom, so there is only one class offered at a time, so I am limited with classes I can join, because of my hectic work schedule.
As a beginner, I started with their basic Moksha Yoga class. It is a class in a room with heat. The class was full of people. The instructor was really nice and helped me out by coming next to me and asked me to follow her while giving out instructions. She also provided me some tips on doing some yoga poses throughout the class.
I really enjoyed my first class and get to lose so much sweat, lol.
Will definitely keep going there, great start towards healthy lifestyle.

Spacious practice room and possibly a handful of genuinely devoted instructors.
My issue is with the administration, the people who greet you during every arrival for class, the go-​to answering any FAQs, so basically the face of this business.
Michelle’s behaviour is that of a rabid dog — the antithesis of zen, so aggressive and eager to start slanderous gossip about other members to staff and students of the studio, that I’m stunned by how she managed to work representing A YOGA STUDIO.
I’ve practiced at multiple Moksha locations and this is the most serious CS fail witnessed to date.

I have been going to MYM for about 2 and a half years. I was new to yoga so I don’t have anything to compare, but over this time I have found the classes to be very consistent and some of your instrctors are fantastic. Special shout out to Lisa (I loved her Saturday 8:00 am class), Danny, Jackie and frankly, all the rest. Great team!

I started yoga at Moksha Yoga Maple just last week using the $ 40 unlimited 1 month intro offer. So far I really like it; plenty of parking, non-​slamming studio door, and very clean. My favourite instructor so far is Lisa because I feel as if she LIVES the yogic life and really cares about the practice. My only complaint would be that the change room is so small; this seems to be the same at every studio I’ve gone to. The Moksha Yoga Maple studio accommodates 50 people and usually 90% are female so everybody is on top of each other in the change room after a busy class and that stresses me after such a nice relaxing hour.

I’ve been a client of Moksha Yoga for a little more than a year now. This is my Zen place. I’ve been taking Ashtanga class, Yin Class, Karma and regular Moksha Classes as well. I enjoy the studio on its own too, its clean, warm :)) and has lots of windows that creat a very light atmosphere. I like the change room and the showers… i wish i had showers like that at home.
I really do suggest this studio as one of the best in the city of vaughan.

My first time tonight to the yoga studio and was beyond impressed. I did a Yin class (at 6:15)and found it very relaxing. Clean, new studio. Great friendly and helpful staff. Will go back often. 8 pm yoga class seemed very busy so get there early.

This Moksha is a lot like others in many respects. I’ve taken a regular Moksha class and an Ashtanga class at MMaple and they were okay as a semi-​regular Moksha student.
Though the customer service lacks in hospitality, the studio is immaculate and very well designed with all that you would expect from a hot yoga studio, such as showers, plenty of space, high ceilings in the studio and with plenty of accessories for your practice (blocks, straps, bolsters).
During rush hour, be sure not to place your mat along or anywhere near the windows, since the constant traffic will get you out of your element.
After frequenting many, many other studios in the GTA I’ve been spoiled rotten by inspiring and creative methods of teaching as well as instructors who take yoga to a level beyond obsession. They make it extremely fun and challenging like a wild ride, and that’s what makes it so hard to return to Moksha and Bikram yoga, where every class is like the other.
The Moksha class at this studio was good, however, the instructor was patient and engaging, while providing many adjustments where needed. My ashtanga class was not so good, and pales as a comparison to Ashtanga Yoga Centre. It seemed like the instructor was teaching from a different room. He provided no adjustments or individual direction and it’s a pity since he seemed to really know his stuff.

Nothing like a new yoga studio where the noon classes on a weekend aren’t jam packed. :P
My friend and I trekked here from our usual Markham/​Scarborough spots to find one of the biggest, cleanest studios ever. This goes for the change room too, that has all the usual amenities (hair dryer, elastics, filtered water, soap in showers)…and three showers! No lockers but you can leave your keys at the front if you wish. Lots of parking. :)
Overall the class was the normal moksha class, so can’t really complain there. The heat seemed hotter than what I got from other studios in the GTA (and compared to the Stouffville one which I’d rate as the most mild). The instructor was at a good pace and I think she was also at the front desk — well at least whoever it was was quite welcoming! :)
They sell a bunch of stuff there as well but I would’ve liked to see more yoga clothes… seemed I saw a lot of t-​shirts, and good, non-​wallet breaking tops compatible with hot yoga are hard to find.
Overall, if I lived in the area I’d go back for sure!

Moksha Yoga Maple is a brand new yoga studio that opens up at Vaughan/​Maple area.
Yes this is another one of those heated/​hot yoga studios… doing the same thing as others. but there are several aspects of the this studio that made my Passport to Prana visit really enjoyable.
Since it is a brand new studio in a brand new retail plaza. Moksha Yoga Maple can build and design exactly the way the owner envisioned, compared to a lot of other studios that need to convert or remodel existing spaces/​business.
There are tons of little cubicles for your shoes right when you walk in. and thanks so much that there are padded benches for people actually sit down and put on/​off their shoes! hopping on one leg and balancing trying put on winter boots are not fun!
The staffs are really friendly! Welcoming to first timer and everyone new to the practice/​studio. The teacher, Vanessa actually sat in the front and reading all the new wavier forms people signed and ask questions if anyone new to the practice individually or have any concerns even before going inside the practice room. Vanessa even explain to all the newcomers what to expect… I really like that caring vibe… and how she really respect the students and herself as a teacher.
The whole studio has a colour theme «Green». All the towels, (BTW the rental towel is one of those yogitoes), mats, painted walls. are all in the same colour theme.
«Green, which is Nature’s colour, is restful, soothing, cheerful, and health-​giving.» — Paul Brunton
The class itself is standard Moksha poses. but since there are quite a few beginners, the instructor spent time and walk us through the poses verbally in details. She also shares her thoughts of how to take yoga practice off the mat into the world. I would say it was a great class with such a positive vibe!..
Facilities wise, there are 2 toilets, 3 showers with fostered shower doors. filtered water to fill up your water bottles.
No lockers though, so locking up your valuable in the car would be a good idea!
