About The Open Space
The Open Space is an urban sanctuary in Abbotsford, set on the banks of the Yarra River and surrounded by nature. It blends movement, stillness and community into one calming studio, drawing practitioners who want more than a workout and instead seek a place to slow down, reconnect and feel restored.
The studio is built around an intentionally broad and soulful program. Alongside yoga and Pilates you will find meditation, sound healing, kirtan, dance and breathwork, complemented by body therapy and clinical psychology grounded in the mind-body connection. The result is a space that supports both physical practice and inner wellbeing.
Members describe the atmosphere as serene, sacred and genuinely transformative, with warm, skilled teachers and an inclusive, safe environment. Whether you are a devoted yogi or simply curious about beginning, The Open Space offers a welcoming home in Abbotsford to explore movement and mindfulness at your own pace, supported by a community that values presence over performance.
