Meet Your Facilitator

Lindsay Domonkos

Lindsay Domonkos began her yoga journey in March 2020, shortly after the birth of her third child. In seeking a way to ease post-delivery discomfort, she found that yoga not only restored her physical mobility but also became a transformative and grounding practice in her life. What started as a method for physical recovery soon grew into a passionate daily ritual that nurtured her emotional, mental, and physical well-being. Lindsay holds 400 hours of yoga teacher training, completed at Bliss Studios Shine OM in Barrie. She now seeks to share the life-changing benefits of yoga with others, fostering a safe, inclusive space where individuals can explore mindful movement and cultivate balance from within.
