The Yoga Sanctuary College was
voted the most beautiful yoga studio in Toronto by Toronto Life
Magazine. Located in The Odd Fellows Hall, built in 1891, this yoga
studio is in the centre of downtown Toronto.
This former ballroom, with hardwood floors, is full
of natural light and is a peaceful and elegant studio. The building
has one of the oldest operating elevators in the city.
On the artistic side, Canada's internationally renowned
Group of Seven used the room as their painting studio. For reasons
that will remain a mystery, when lawyers leased the space they created
a false ceiling at 12 feet. Walls divided the room in half and the
south side of the room became an auction house.
Recently the original ceiling was rediscovered and
the hooks in the dome are a reminder of that humble time.
Come and discover yoga in one of Toronto's hidden
sanctuary's in the heart of downtown.

The Yoga Sanctuary Danforth studio is also in an historic
building that was built in 1856. This studio has unique curved walls,
with beautiful floor to ceiling windows and a multi-coloured exposed
brick wall. Conveniently located at the gateway to the east end
of Toronto, it is a truly one-of-a-kind practice space.
The Playter Society Building at 95 Danforth was the
first commercial building in the area, built by Albert E. Playter
and his brother William around 1909. They strategically placed the
building where the Broadview Ave streetcars turned around. It soon
became the commercial and social centre for the district. Liberace
performed at concerts across the hall where The Joy of Dance is
now located. The hall became the place to dance to big name bands
in the 1930's, like Guy Lambardo. This building caught on fire in
1975 and suffered tremendous damages. From the ashes of a terrible
fire, The Yoga Sanctuary Danforth has resurrected this space.
Conveniently located at the gateway to the east end
of Toronto, it is a truly one-of-a-kind practice space. |
