The Pranalife Story

“Let those who would move the world, first move themselves.” ~ Socrates

Prana [Sanskrit]: "life force," yoga's version of chi. The powerful, subtle energy that brings us all to life.

Pranalife Yoga was started in 2006 by Advanced Yoga Instructor Asia Nelson and has become one of Kitchener-Waterloo's best sources for yoga and yoga teacher training. Pranalife is for people who want to do more than go through the motions of life. We engage in living yoga - moving bodies, minds, and energy so you become fit to create the life you've always wanted.

Since its inception, Asia has taken the company from offering yoga classes in the Kitchener-Waterloo area to offering private yoga, personalized group yoga sessions, retreats (the Yoga+Cooking retreat to Tuscany being a favourite) and special events like the popular Vine & Vinyasa Yoga+Wine+Food evenings. Pranalife's most successful development has been its innovative Yoga Teacher Training program, which has launched many teachers into vibrant careers and, for some, completely new life paths through yoga teaching. Hear a few of our teachers tell you themselves.

Today, Pranalife's mission is to support evolving, lifelong yoga practices. Its commitment to this mission is at the heart of the teacher training, and every moment spent with Pranalife practitioners.
