the Base

Yoga studio with red lighting, featuring a large mirror, a cushioned floor mat with a book on a block, and decorative pampas grass.

Life will be unexpected and tragic, but it can also be joyful and liberating. 

This is what fuels me to create space for more of those experiences and discoveries at the Base. Now more than ever we need to remember our joy and work towards liberation.  

We all need a sanctuary. We all need a peaceful foundation so that no matter what shakes us, the base of joy and liberation remains unshakable. Grounded from deep within. 

the Base welcomes you to deepen your practice of peace.

What people say

  • "KJ has been one of the most inspiring teachers in my yoga journey. Her care, approach & expertise make room for anyone to be in her presence. She embodies yoga holistically, is a constant learner, honors its foundations & teaches with intentionality. Her spirit is unmatched & it's safe to say that she's the best teacher in Toronto."

    - Krittika

  • "KJ is an amazing instructor, truly thoughtful, knowledgeable and creative. I do weekly sessions with KJ with my son, who is on the autism spectrum, and I so appreciate her patience and care in ensuring that he is fully engaged in our practice. He now really looks forward to yoga time! I can’t recommend KJ highly enough."

    - David

  • KJs workshops and events never fail to inspire me and connect me to my inner intuition. I always leave the space feeling significantly more present, and tapped into my mind/ body connection. Her approach to yoga and mindfulness create a relaxed and comfortable environment to explore your inner power, and her workshops have taught me incredibly valuable techniques I have integrated into my day to day routine. The exercises I’ve learned from KJ have truly changed the way I approach work, interpersonal and professional relationships, and most importantly- self care."

    - Lisa

  • "I honestly can’t say enough about Kyra- both as a yoga teacher and as a person. She is one of the kindest, most genuine souls I’ve ever met, and over time, she’s become not just my guide but a close confidante. Her classes became a sanctuary for me during some of my toughest times, offering not just movement but a safe space to truly breathe, reset, and reconnect with myself. What sets her apart is that she teaches yoga as a philosophy, a way of living and embodying mindfulness, balance, grace, and presence. The way she teaches is extremely thoughtful and intuitive, and it has completely transformed my own yoga practice—helping me find more depth, ease, and joy on (and off) the mat. But what I love most about Kyra is that she truly lives what she teaches. She embodies santosha (contentment), ahimsā (compassion) and satya (truthfulness) in everything she does, making her not just an incredible teacher but also an inspiring role model. She is the perfect example of what it means to be on The Peace Pursuit, and if you ever have the chance to learn from her, take it—you’ll walk away feeling lighter, stronger, and more at peace."

  • "KJ has always given me a safe space to both practice and process at my own pace. Her holistic approach to teaching has helped me address my specific needs without feeling any judgement or pressure. I would recommend KJ to anyone!"
