Afterglow Yoga Studio.
Health and fitness in The Beaches
Located in the Beaches neighbourhood of Toronto, Afterglow is more than just a yoga and fitness studio.
The design of the space focuses on community, health, mindfulness, and inspiration, by creating an open and inviting, light-filled environment for visitors to relax, exercise, and unwind. There are even community spaces to hang out before and after classes: a tea bar, retail space, and lounge area.
The material palette combines the natural and the modern, to create a bright, welcoming, and natural environment. Sustainable features include materials that are recycled and do not off-gas, efficient lighting, reversible ceiling fans with natural cross-ventilation, and on-demand water heating.
With its friendly and knowledgeable owners, great location, and welcoming design, Afterglow Yoga Studio promises to be a staple in the Beaches area for years to come.
