Meaghan Burridge, B.Comm (Co-op), E-RYT
Program Director and Senior Teacher
Meaghan is an experienced yoga teacher known for pairing just the right level of challenge with a light sense of humor. She began her yoga journey as a teenager looking for relief from chronic back pain and more than a decade later the practice has become an integral, life-long therapy that continually heals more than just pesky back pain. Since those early days of yoga exploration in Toronto, Meaghan has studied throughout Canada, the United States, and Thailand and especially in Montreal with teachers Robin Golt and Barrie Risman. Trained in the Anusara method of alignment-based, heart opening Hatha yoga Meaghan teaches from the heart, for the heart and weaves body, mind and soul together as they are meant to be.

Ann Marie Lane, BSc., PT. Certified Yoga Teacher
Anatomy Instructor
Ann Marie is grateful to know the importance of finding balance and re-balance in her physical, mental and spiritual journey (she’ll let you know once she’s found it!) Whether in her calling as a physiotherapist, or in her exploration as a student and teacher of yoga, Ann Marie recognizes that understanding and connecting with the physical body, is a key to fuller awareness. She is thrilled to be teaching and sharing what she knows of anatomy in this wonderful yoga teacher training program.
