Our next guests love to move and their approach to it is a breath of fresh air. Instead of rigid rules and high pressure, they’ve created two spaces that focus on joyful movement for every body.

$4,622.50 raised 🫶🏻

Yesterday, through our 10-class pack fundraiser, our community raised $4,622.50 for the Tyendinaga Food Resource Centre.

Thank you to everyone who purchased a pack and helped make this contribution possible.

September 30 is an important day of remembrance, reflection, and learning, but the work of truth and reconciliation extends far beyond a single day.

For those of us here in The County, A Path Forward offers one place to continue learning throughout the year.

Located at Macaulay Heritage Park in Picton, this permanent and evolving exhibit brings together Indigenous art, history, and story, creating space for continued learning and reflection. Co-curated by The County Museums and Tsi Tyónnheht Onkwawén, A Path Forward is recognized as a Legacy Space by the Gord Downie & Chanie Wenjack Fund, creating a permanent place for ongoing learning and conversation around Indigenous history and reconciliation.

✨ A Path Forward
📍 Macaulay Heritage Park, Picton
🗓️ Wednesday–Sunday

THURSDAY, OCT 15 at 7:30 PM

INTRO TO ZEN 🪷
As the feeling of fall surrounds us and daylight shortens, come learn the foundations of meditation, or Zen, as it is called in Japanese. We will be warming ourselves with Mugicha, traditional barley tea and going over the practice forms and philosophy of seated meditation (Zazen) and walking meditation (Kinhin). Zen is the profound direct experience of just sitting, just walking, just breathing and just being. Beneath the busyness of the mind, and the stirring of the emotions, there is a still point that can be touched and cultivated. Zen can be practiced both in community (called Sangha) or on your own. $25 +HST

IT’S BACK-TO-STUDIO TIME 🤎

The fall equinox is here, marking a shift in seasons and a natural invitation to find a new rhythm.

The return of familiar routines, a little more structure to our days, and the opportunity to make space for the things that help us feel good.

For us, that includes movement.

Whether you’ve been moving with us all summer, are finding your way into a new routine, or have been meaning to come in for the very first time, consider this your invitation to make the studio part of your week.

Space to move, breathe, connect, and do something good for yourself.

Some days call for an active Reformer class. Others might call for slowing things down, finding some space on the mat, or simply showing up and seeing how you feel.

A new season, a fresh rhythm, and plenty of nice moves ahead.

We can’t wait to move with you this fall.

Explore the schedule and set your autumn movement rituals into motion.

Starting tonight, she’ll be taking over our Monday 6:30 pm MAT – ESSENTIALS class.

In our humble opinion, this might just be the perfect way to start your week: thoughtful movement, gentle guidance, and a little time to get yourself set up for whatever the week has in store.

Come move with Pia tonight 🕯️

In less than one month we’ll begin our next MAT TEACHER TRAINING the studio pec

One of our favourite parts of our Teacher Training programs is the incredible group of guest educators who join us along the way.

We’ve intentionally gathered a group of inspiring people with different areas of expertise, perspectives, and approaches to movement to expand the conversation beyond the Pilates repertoire. From creative sequencing and dynamic programming to voice, nervous system awareness, anti-diet teaching, classical Pilates, and anti-oppressive + neuro-inclusive movement, each brings something distinct to the learning experience.

Learning from different voices creates space to consider new perspectives, explore different approaches, and build a broader understanding of what teaching movement can look like.

Meet our 2026 guest educators ✨

KAYLYN GELATA
Creative Sequencing

HALLIDAY REYNOLDS
Dynamic Programming

ADAM BOLTON
Voice + Presence

RACHEL MCLEAN
