Thanks for stopping by and checking out PUG (Pick Up Games) Sports Zone. The group has been in existence for only a year but has grown very quickly in that time. While we play various sports, there is one common theme in every game we host; there are no set teams from week to week so a member who you were playing against one week could be your teammate the next. This helps foster an environment where we welcome anyone who wants to play, whether experienced or just starting out, an environment …

It is a regular Yoga class, Hatha based, YogaWorks, just with all the guidances in French. You do not need to be proficient - as a matter of fact, not even have done - any Yoga before nor speak the language: in yoga you get the same benefits no matter the extent of the poses and your level; as for the French, this is not intended to be a class, it is for you to be completely immersed into the language and its sounds, either that you are a speaker or have never heard a single word before!
