    • 5.0
    • 1,274 reviews

    Junction 9's Mission location brings the brand's community yoga philosophy to one of Calgary's most vibrant inner-city neighbourhoods.

    With four yoga-specific reviews averaging 5.0 and solid overall member satisfaction, the Mission location is building the same reputation its Inglewood counterpart has already established.

A distinctive option for Calgary members who want yoga's benefits woven throughout their training.

    • 5.0
    • 1,192 reviews

The three qualifying yoga-specific reviews average 5.0, reflecting members who specifically recognise the yoga integration as a genuine quality of the PVolve method.

    Instructors here are praised for their ability to make functional movement concepts accessible without oversimplifying them.
