Rediscover Shoulder Mobility Through Embodied Movement (4 Week Series)
2025-11-17 19:30 - 20:45 | Coloured Soul Yoga & Wellness, 2 Willingdon Blvd, Etobicoke, ON, Canada
The shoulder girdle is designed for remarkable mobility, yet it often feels stiff and restricted from the weight we carry—both physically and emotionally. In these sessions, we’ll lighten the load by integrating breath and mindful movement to reconnect with the bones and soft tissues of the shoulder girdle. Together, we’ll explore how these movements not only restore shoulder mobility but also influence the health of the spine.
Ideal for artists, musicians, and dancers, this work translates directly to your craft: smoother port de bras and overhead lines, more ease in lifts and turns, steadier posture for long rehearsals, freer bowing/strumming/keyboard reach, and deeper breath support for singers. Visual artists gain endurance for overhead and across-canvas work; actors and movers feel a more expressive, relaxed upper body and clearer stage presence. You’ll leave with simple warm-up and cool-down sequences to reduce tension, support longevity, and keep your creativity flowing—on stage, in the studio, and in everyday life.
All levels welcome. Also ideal for anyone experiencing frozen shoulder or any other shoulder ailments.

Feel the Freedom Friday
2025-11-21 07:30 - 09:00 | Coloured Soul Yoga & Wellness, 2 Willingdon Blvd, Etobicoke, ON, Canada
Step into a guided, 90 min. somatic dance experience designed to gently release physical tension, reduce stress, and reconnect you to your body’s natural rhythm.
Rooted in principles of somatic awareness and inspired by the freedom of ecstatic dance, this practice invites you to move without choreography or judgment – an invitation to move as you feel, not as you “should” – exploring breath, sensation, and spontaneous movement in a supportive space.
No fancy steps. No mirrors. Just you, the beat, and a room full of humans letting it all go.
This isn’t about dancing for anyone else — it’s about waking up stagnant energy, discovering a more easeful relationship with your body and remembering what it feels like to be deeply, joyfully alive in your own skin.
No dance background needed — just curiosity and an open heart.
Come as you are. Move how you need. Leave feeling lighter, grounded, and renewed.

Anastasia – Presented by Clarkson Music Theatre
2025-11-21 20:00 - 22:00 | Meadowvale Theatre, 6315 Montevideo Rd, Mississauga, Ontario, L5N 4G7, Canada
An epic story told in a sweeping style, the story jumps from the fairy tale Romanov Court in Russia to the restrictive regime of post war Russia, then journeys to Paris. Two charlatans embark on a wild ride in “the biggest con in history”: they will groom a naive girl to pose as the long lost princess Anastasia to extract money from the Dowager Empress. But when their “princess” (an amnesiac) provides details of the Tsarina’s life that she should not know and falls effortlessly into the “role” of Anastasia, the audience begins to wonder if the girl is a fraud or, in fact, the lost princess herself. Relentlessly pursued by the Russian government, tormented by a barrage of memories, Anastasia must “journey to the past” before discovering her future.
Music by Stephen Flaherty
Lyrics by Lynn Ahrens
Book by Terrence McNally.
Anastasia is presented through special arrangement with Concord Theatricals. www.concordtheatricals.com
