Rachael Fallon - Yoga / Breath / Meditation Teacher, trained in Psychodynamic Psychotherapy, Reiki Healing.
The teachings I share are a continuum of meditative self inquiry, interoception, body - based consciousness, all weaved together through ritual, contemplation, and mindfulness. I create a container for you to explore deep visceral experiences through experiential breath-work, contemplative and intuitive movement, play, deep listening, release work, moving, breathing, and stillness meditation.
I work with trauma-sensitive principles that cultivate felt - sense awareness, personal empowerment and collaboration, inspired by my training in Psychodynamic Psychotherapy.
In 2019, I embarked on a collaborative journey to open the doors of Sweat & Tonics Yoga Studio. Since then, I have blossomed into the heart of the community, enchanting students with unique offerings, from creative Vinyasa to Power Flow, Slow Flow, Flow & Restore, and Yin & Calm classes. I was honoured community builder of the year in 2023 and has also created monthly Reiki Restore Group healing sessions, featuring a diverse roster of over 70 healers from the Greater Toronto Area. With classes consistently waitlisted and over 1000 students gracing my classes at S & T locations each week, this studio has truly become my sanctuary.
I also host retreats, yoga teacher training and continuing education programming in India, Thailand, and Nepal.

" Rachael co-lead the 200 hour Teacher Training with Karma Teachers in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. She created classes and modules that infused movement as medicine, the art of sequencing, alignment and safe adjustments, how to create a safe place, self-practice, yoga philosophy, psychology, meditation techniques, yoga nidra, journaling and getting in touch with the emotional body, the kleshas, the 3 gunas on and off the mat, and the depths of yoga lineage and tradition. Her 2 decades of study and practice were evident in this training, her studies in psychotherapy guided students to process wounds and trauma, to explore shadow work in a creative and safe way. Rachael is a very compassionate teacher and leader. She came at a time when I was having personal difficulties and needed more time to take care of my Mom who was battling cancer at that time. She went above and beyond and lead the class in my many absences and also became my personal support.
Rachael brings expertise and knows how to uplift students by instilling ancient wisdom that she has learned from the masters. She shares her heart and knowledge generously.
I am honoured to work beside her and she is a valuable asset to anyone she works with. In my opinion, Rachael is a master teacher that lives her dharma. She is also a very real and human teacher that shares how she worked with her own shadow, and is not afraid to continually change for the benefit of her students. "
