    This is a great yoga place - lots of classes on offer, both the drop-in and 7-week package variety. There are quite a few teachers in the schedule, which I personally like - if someone isn't a good fit, there are plenty of other classes to choose. I haven't been to many yet - but i was convinced enough by their biannual free open day offering to buy a 3-month pass. It's mostly Hatha, with some kundalini and meditative practice thrown in. The pre-paid 7-week courses include prenatal, postnatal-with-baby, and I believe childrens' courses.

    The teachers I've worked with so far have been really genuine, friendly and it's a welcoming environment. It's pretty pricey though. Current prices are posted online. If you buy a pass, you can also track your usage of it online (they give you a barcode thing that you scan in before each class, and a username/pwd for their site).

    Terrific location just around the corner from Sherbrooke Metro, on St Denis in the lower Plateau. Yoga Sangha has the second and third floors of pleasantly-creaky old brownstone. Exposed-brick walls, big windows, not enough mirrors though. The thai restaurant on the ground floor can make for a .... fragrant evening class, but apart from that its a really nice facility. There are changing facilities, lockers and a shower for men and women (seperate). They also have treatment rooms in the lower-ground floor. The decor is kinda urban day-spa - meets - tibetan-inspired yoga-chic.

    All classes are in French; if you've done some yoga before, and your french is just-ok, you won't have a problem. I would say you'll need french in inverse proportion to your yoga knowledge.
