Belinda graduated with a Kinesiology degree from the University of Waterloo in 1992. She studied Massage Therapy at Sutherland-Chan, and worked as a Registered Massage Therapist for more than 20 years. She started practicing yoga as a form of self-care; but it quickly evolved into so much more. Belinda started practicing Modo yoga in 2004, and fell in love with the practice, pillars and community. She attended the First abroad Modo Yoga teacher training in 2006 in Thailand and has since taken over 1000 hours of continued learning and yoga and movement arts. Belinda’s vision to create an accessible healing space to foster community connection, growth and peace inspired her to open her first Modo Yoga studio in 2010 with her partner Linda Barrett. Belinda and Linda opened a second location in Newmarket in 2016.
