Calming Candlelit Pilates Studios

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Jaybird Yorkville is a Contemporary Movement Studio

— January 24, 2024 — Lifestyle
Jaybird has opened its flagship store in Yorkville, Toronto, at 110 Bloor St. W, introducing a unique fitness experience focused on sensory engagement rather than visual appearances. The studio offers a range of classes, including The Build class, which progresses from slow stretches to a sweaty peak, and The Balance class, a restorative session emphasizing stretching, breath work, and a relaxing sound bath. All classes are conducted by candlelight in a heated infrared room, enhancing the immersive experience.

Jaybird's philosophy emphasizes experiencing the present moment, shedding external perceptions, and focusing on inner sensation. The studio's use of infrared heating aids in sweating, immune system boost, and muscle recovery, while sensation-oriented language by instructors encourages participants to connect with their movements. The workouts are powered by loud music, and the studio's mirrorless, dark environment fosters a judgment-free space focused on personal well-being. Jaybird offers a moving meditation experience, leaving participants deeply connected with themselves.
