2017 is a brand spankin’ new year, and it’s high time you bought some stock in yourself!

Whether you want to master the art of minimalist living, heal your gut or channel your inner Bey at a Formation dance class, we’ve found the workshops for you. Hit up the Get School’d #Resolutions workshops at the Gladstone (1214 Queen W) running throughout January.


Healing Your Gut with Dee Buryk
January 5 (7:00-9:00pm): $15
Get tickets here.

Instead of painfully detoxing your way out of the “one-too-many-eggnog holidays,” learn the tools to support the epicentre of all health: your gut. As Hippocrates once said, “All diseases begin in the gut.” By focusing on this one common location, you can get results such as mental clarity, regular digestion, a healthy body weight, improved energy, glowing hair and skin, and much more. Your body naturally wants to be healthy and once we address the root cause by healing your gut, your body can begin to transform.

Mastering Minimalism
Thursday January 5 (7pm-9pm): $15
Get tickets here.

Minimalism is not just “decluttering” – it is a philosophy of life that allows you to invite into your life only high-value items, relationships, and experiences with ease, clarity, and purpose. This philosophy frees you from the anxiety of consumption, holding on to unnecessary things and ideas, and the paralysis of choice. You’ll gain a solid foundation of universal minimalist principles and how they can be applied to each area of your life.
