What to expect from a Tulā - Yoga Community class
Laughter and inclusivity. Non-judgement and the feeling of support. A welcoming energy. Tidbits of wisdom, and an attention to who you are as an individual, the freedom to show up however you are in that moment. The intention of a more traditional Vinyasa yoga practice.
Attention on the mind, to support the physical self. To teach you – about many things. Lots of goodness.
I care deeply to use Yoga and Tulā – Yoga Community as a vessel to help those in need. We offer donation based classes in which all proceeds go to charity. Stay tuned for Tulā products, in which a percentage of purchases help to support people who are houseless, support women who have faced domestic violence, and do our best to help Coast Salish Indigenous communities. It’s my intention to inspire Tulā – Yoga Community students to practice mindfulness and in turn send out more conscious, open, and loving people into the world.
Teaching Philosophy + Experience
My teaching philosophy is to practice freely, to be open with yourself and others. To leave the practice with a new piece of knowledge and a contentment in your energy. I care deeply to honour that this is a practice – remembering that time, energy, knowledge, and wisdom go into a practice.
I believe that most of Yoga does not happen on the mat. I don’t believe that your Yoga practice happens in the physical postures. Some students I've connected with are not far along in their Asana practice – but are deep in their spiritual journeys.
Your Yoga pathway is here to support you with ethics, meditation, reflection, self-inquiry, mindfulness, to be honest with yourself and others, and to practice kindness. Fitness and flexibility are just a beautiful by product. It’s my intention to always work with honouring the Eastern philosophies, history, and practices of Yoga.
I’ve held the seat of the student for 11 years, and though I’ve gained certification as a “teacher” – I will always be a student. I am here to share. I am here to listen to you share.

Tulā is unlike any yoga experience I have ever had. Whitney brings passion, knowledge and kindness to everything she does. No two classes are the same and I love how each week there is reflection and thought put into her practice and teachings. She embodies positivity and will guaranteed make you laugh with her effortless humour. Thank-you Whitney for creating such a wonderful space that I look forward to coming to each week!
