Owner and Founder
Kendra started her Yoga Voyage in 2012 while apprenticing as a farrier (blacksmith). The physical demands of the job weren’t balanced by the strength and weight training she was doing at the time, and a friend suggested trying the new hot yoga studio in the heart of Schomberg - Country Zen Yoga, to bring more mobility and flexibility into her life. She went to her first 75-minute Hot Vinyasa and was instantly hooked.
After 8 years of practicing 5–6 times a week, she finally made the leap into her first 200HR Teacher Training at Country Zen under Erin Ward-Williams. Kendra began teaching right away, despite the Covid pandemic having just begun. Between openings and lockdowns, she taught both in-person and online via Zoom.
A year later, life took Kendra and her husband across the world to Perth, Western Australia, where she quickly found herself teaching at five different studios. During this time, she immersed herself in Ashtanga Yoga with Moksha and Puja from YogaOm Perth, working privately with her teachers to refine her self-practice.
Her dedication to continued learning then brought her to Byron Bay, NSW, where she completed her advanced 300HR training with Duncan Parviainen and HOV Yoga, deepening both her practice and her understanding of the philosophy and teaching of Vinyasa yoga.
In the summer of 2025, Kendra traveled to Seattle to study with Annie Carpenter known globally as “the teacher’s teacher” before continuing on to Europe for a month-long Teacher’s Intensive with Richard Freeman and Mary Taylor in Germany, studying with two of the world’s most respected Yoga teachers.
Kendra brings to her classes a foundational, anatomical, and alignment-based approach - always with the intention of making your yoga practice one of longevity, transformation, and growth, just as hers has been. Her goal as a teacher is to create a space of community and to leave you feeling nurtured and cared for every time you step on the mat, while also helping you deepen your understanding of the practice and your connection to it over time.
Additional trainings Kendra has done:
Annie Carpenter - SmartFlow 1 & 2
Annie Carpenter - Master Workshop
Jason Crandall - The Art of Sequencing
Janet Stone - The Art of Hands on Assists
Monica Gauchi - The Sanctity of the Sacred Spine

Alicia’s yoga journey began 20 years ago when she got her first taste of yoga at the gym across from where she worked but it wasn’t until CZY opened in Schomberg that she had the opportunity to truly explore what yoga would come to mean to her.
A student first, Alicia had not considered the teaching path until COVID hit and her regular in studio practice was put on pause.
Always a curious student when the opportunity to become a teacher presented itself it offered her the chance to get back to her mat and deepen her knowledge of not just the asana limb of yoga but all areas of yoga.
Alicia became a certified teacher in 2022 and has been teaching consistently since then.
Alicia aims to lead fun, creative vinyasa flows that create opportunity to explore a variety of poses at all levels. A big fan of props and always with an emphasis on breath and anatomy her vinyasa classes are welcoming and upbeat.
Alicia’s other love is creating open and welcoming restorative classes that focus on finding quiet in the mind, softness and release in the body and a connection with breath.
Alicia brings her experience as a student, her knowledge as a teacher and her profound love of yoga to all her classes.

Bonnie has been a certified yoga and meditation teacher since 2017 with over 450 hours of training, specializing in Yoga Nidra, Restorative Yoga, and 5 Element Yoga™. Her work creates space for deep rest, self-compassion, and reconnection with what matters most—YOU.
Yoga Nidra was a turning point in Bonnie’s life. At a time when she felt depleted and disconnected, she began practicing yoga nidra and set a powerful intention. Within three months, that intention unfolded—leading her to leave a demanding job so she could be home with her two young daughters.
That transformation didn’t come from doing more. It came from pausing, shifting her mindset, and simply being.
Bonnie’s mission is to help others step out of survival mode and into stillness and self-kindness. Her classes are a gentle invitation to slow down, breathe, and come home to yourself—without pressure or judgement.
When she’s not guiding others through rest and reflection, you can find Bonnie offering intuitive card readings, coaching, co-hosting her podcast Tarot with Bonnie and Peter, or spending time with her husband, two daughters, and their sweet dog Coconut.

I began my Yoga & Pilates journey while pregnant with my second child after taking pre-natal yoga classes. I fell in love with the way I began to feel not just physically, but emotionally and spiritually as well. Soon afterwards I completed my Yoga TT 200 Hr from Blue Door Yoga Room and my Classical Mat Pilates I/II from East to West Yoga & Pilates and have been teaching in the GTA for nearly 20 years now.
My hope is that my classes encourage you to find stillness, movement and breath in a mindful way so that you walk out feeling energized and relaxed at the same time. I very much look forward to sharing my joy of movement with all students and sharing my mantra of keeping the body, mind and spirit healthy and happy.

Dawn's yoga journey began in 2003 when her sister encouraged her to join a recreational yoga class during a particularly challenging period of her life. The ability to shut out distractions and focus solely on her breath was both astonishing and transformative. This initial experience sparked a lasting passion for yoga, leading her to explore various styles and delve deeply into the connection between body, mind, and spirit. Yoga has always felt like a return to her true self, and in 2023, after leaving her role as a Project Manager, she spent a month at the Sivananda Ashram in the Bahamas, completing her first 200HR training with four incredibly knowledgeable Swamis. This life changing experience fueled her desire to share the benefits of yoga with others and 6 months later, she taught her first class and found it deeply rewarding.
Dawn’s teaching focuses on Hatha and Vinyasa yoga, incorporating a series of asanas and pranayama to enhance strength and flexibility. By emphasizing breathwork, mudras, and mindfulness, her goal is to help students energize and calm their minds, allowing them to move through their practice with focus, awareness, and alignment with their breath.
Dawn views yoga as a deeply personal journey and aims to create a supportive environment where each student can explore and deepen their practice at their own pace. Committed to continuous learning and growth both on and off the mat, she looks forward to sharing this journey with you.
In addition, Dawn has also completed:
Sophia Khalfan, Markham Yoga & Wellness – 200HR, 8-week intensive Training
Liana Ledgerwood, The ATHA Method - The Art of Yoga Assists
Liana Ledgerwood, The ATHA Method - Teaching Ladder Flows

Cat came to yoga as an athlete needing to find balance in her sport of ultra running.
She stayed with it and eventually decided to share yoga with others because what
she found was so much more than just movement for her stiff body. Cat truly feels
blessed to share her passion each and every day and to have the opportunity to help
others achieve a safe space to discover their own physical bodies, breath, as well as
a deeper connection to themselves and to the greater community around them.
Cat has been teaching since 2016. She shares the practices of: Yin, Restorative,
Yoga Nidra, Hatha, Flow/Vinyasa, Yang to Yin, and Hot 26&2 (once known as Bikram
Yoga). Cat shares yoga in a lighthearted style focused on breath, body, and present
moment awareness. Her hatha classes are guided with the intention of keeping you
grounded, present and motivated in your moving meditation while working on
alignment (the intensity is up to you). Her flow classes focus on one breath one
movement with enough cueing to give you confidence in finding the right alignment
in your shape, and enough freedom to explore the movement of your body. And her
restorative style classes guide you to go deeper in your mind and body while leaving
you feeling the full yoga “zen” effect.
When not on her mat, you'll find Cat working as an energy healer sharing reiki and
as a life coach using chakra alignment to help one reach their goals; teaching other
teachers as a mentor and training facilitator; hosting yoga retreats and workshops;
going to concerts to see live music; and (best of all) spending time with her family
and friends, at the cottage, out in nature, or just being barefoot and fancy free!
Please be sure to say hi and connect with Cat when you are in the studio next.
Namaste.
“There is no doubt that the foundation of being a great yoga teacher is being a great yoga student.”
