What People are saying about Terra Karda Studio:

“Just a note to let you know how much I am enjoying my first Yoga experience. After yesterdays’ session, my neck is so much more flexible to the right side and that side of my back feels so much better. Maybe it was that last stretch we did? Anyway, it feels so much better! I find each week so relaxing and also is making me stronger and my posture is improving. Thank you!”

Nancy McNeill Dwhytie Georgetown, ON

“It has been about a year and a half since I began yoga classes with Denis. I have never felt better. She seems to be able to target the areas of need with ease. Denis has a real passion for what she does and it shows. I have attended other yoga classes in the past and no one comes close to Denis. My favourite part of her sessions is when she helps me with my stretches/positions. It is as if she knows exactly where my body needs to go.”


“I have also attended some of Denis’ Nia classes. Denis makes it fun and to seem effortless especially with the uplifting music she chooses. I would recommend any of her classes to anyone as she is easily able to tailor them to suit anyone’s needs. But please Denis save one spot for me!!”

Lillian Muir, Georgetown Ontario

What is Pranayama

Pranayama is the art of breath manipulation and energy balance. Pranayama involves breathing techniques practiced thousands of diffirent ways.


Almost every cell in the body benefits from the regular practice of pranayama. After a session breathing is naturally long and rhythmic. All of the bodies organs are properly supplied with oxygen allowing them to function properly.

Breathing techniques are done to balance the intake of an invisible energy known as Prana which is thought to enter with the air. Just as air enters the body with water, yet both are separate, so too prana enters with the air.

With the regular practice of pranayama lines of energy are untangled. Energy flows freely.

Rhythms of breathing are perfectly balanced which means long healthy natural breathing occurs unconsciously after practice.

“A balanced breath leads to a balance mind.”
