WINNIPEG, MB, Aug. 15,
2024 /CNW/ - in the National Homeland of the Red
River Métis – Today, the Manitoba Métis Federation
(MMF), the National Government of the Red River Métis, is proud to
join the ownership of Yoga Public to announce the reopening of
Canada's largest yoga studio at
280 Fort Street, an MMF-owned building in downtown Winnipeg, this September.
The MMF's priority to actively revitalize downtown Winnipeg, coupled with the determination of
Ida Albo, owner of Yoga Public and
managing partner of the Fort Garry Hotel, has led to the studio
coming back to serve Winnipeg's
yoga community.
When it first opened its studio in 2012, Yoga Public was and now
returns as Canada's largest yoga
playground, spanning over 16,000 square feet with a sleek, modern
design that maintains the warmth and community that Yoga Public is
known for.
"Yoga Public was more than a place to practice yoga – it was a
space where people found deeper connections with themselves and
others," says Albo. "We're thrilled to welcome everyone to a place
that feels like home – a place to practice, to grow, and to
connect."
The studio returns with a renewed energy and commitment to
wellness and will reopen with many of the beloved teachers and
classes that members have missed. The schedule will include hot
yoga in our Far Infrared heated studio, powerful flows, gentle
hatha and restorative yoga, and fresh new offerings in
meditation.
"The MMF continues to deliver on its responsibility to do our
part to revitalize downtown as the economic heart of the City and
Province we helped build, and we are always happy to welcome
business partners who are equally invested in our downtown," said
David Chartrand, President of the
MMF. "I invited businesses to unite with us at last month's
announcement highlighting our most recent large-scale investment in
downtown Winnipeg. I commend
Ida Albo, a renowned business
leader, for heeding the call and working with us to reopen Yoga
Public, bringing more people to downtown with a premium wellness
offering."
Yoga Public officially opens September
14, 2024, and invites both longtime members and new yogis to
rediscover their passion for yoga in a revitalized setting.
