Our Instructors

Yoga: Chris Csak has over 10 years exploring and sharing a number of different Yoga Practices.  His foundation and formal Yoga training is in the branch of Hatha Yoga called Ashtanga Yoga. Originally, he studied in Toronto with Dianne Bruni and Ron Reid at Downwarddog Yoga Studios, but more recently he has returned from working intensely with the highly respected Caroline Klebl based in San Fransisco, California.  Chris' own philosophy connects his education in exercise science with traditional Yoga philosophy and practice therefore his classes bring a more contemporary feel while staying connected to traditional Yoga Asanas (Postures).  Chris has taught Yoga on all 7 continents in a wealth of exciting settings and now he is excited to be teaching at The University of Toronto.
