New to AURA? We've got you
I’m a complete beginner. Is AURA for me?
1
Absolutely! In fact, we'd love to be part of your beginning. Whether you've never stepped onto a yoga mat, haven't moved your body in a while, or are simply looking to try something new, there's space for you here. You don't need to be flexible, strong, experienced or particularly coordinated to get started. All you need is a willingness to show up, explore and meet yourself where you are. We'll take it from there!

First things first: take a breath. You're in good company! Walking into a new space can feel a little intimidating, but we want your first AURA experience to feel easy, comfortable and welcoming. When you arrive, our friendly team will help you get settled, show you around and answer any questions you might have. Your instructor will guide you through class, offer options along the way and encourage you to move at your own pace. There's no pressure to keep up, get everything right or be anything other than yourself. Come as you are. We'll be happy to meet you!
how do i know which class is right for me?

With so many ways to move, stretch, strengthen and explore, we know choosing your first class can feel like a bit of a guessing game! The good news? You don't have to figure it all out on your own. Our class descriptions offer a little insight into what to expect, and we're always happy to help you find something that feels aligned with your interests, experience and energy. Whether you're craving something slow and restorative or upbeat and energizing, there's something here for you to explore.

We're so glad you're considering making AURA part of your routine! We offer different class pass and membership options to help you find a way to move that works for your lifestyle and budget. If you're new to the studio, your first class is on us! And we have free community classes on the schedule every week.
what makes aura different from a traditional gym or fitness studio?
5
We believe movement is about so much more than exercise. It's about connection, confidence, curiosity and creating space for yourself in a world that rarely asks you to slow down. AURA is a community-centred movement studio where you can explore different ways of moving, challenge yourself, find stillness, make connections and feel celebrated exactly as you are. We're passionate about creating an inclusive, welcoming and judgement-free space where everyone belongs. You don't have to fit into AURA. AURA makes space for you.

what our members have to say
“Your community is truly a COMMUNITY! I always leave feeling a connection to body, and spirit. Your instructors sprinkle magic & shared joy with laughter, movement, and sometimes even the good kind of discomfort :) Thanks for creating a great space where I can show up imperfectly perfect to take care of myself.”

"The Aura House is and always will be a safe space. During my first class I was met with kind eyes of strangers. All who had a variety of body types and yoga experience. That was the moment I knew I would come back."

Navigating a studio’s schedule can be overwhelming. We want you to feel empowered to advocate for yourself, ask questions, provide feedback and have a say in your experience as a member. This is where you can start ;)
