The Black Salt Room
What we offer

Breathwork and yoga in Toronto

The Black Salt Room offers a short list of small-group practices and private sessions in a home-based Toronto studio. Every group is limited to six, props are provided, and sessions are arranged by inquiry rather than public booking.

Pricing and current availability are shared in that conversation. No prior experience is required.

If you are unsure where to begin, start with the note on yin and restorative yoga or send Alina a question through the inquiry form.
