Canoe Foundations Clinic
**Please note the only way to register for this adventure is on [our website.](https://www.wildernessunion.com/adventures/canoe-clinic)**
***Join us for this essential course as we break down the foundations of wilderness canoeing!***
We are heading north to help you build up the necessary skills for your summer adventures. This isn't a rigid certification course but a practical, hands-on clinic led by our two master paddler guides, Rory & Zac. They will share their breadth of knowledge gathered over many years of paddling to help you feel confident and prepared on the water.
In this course you will learn:
* Fundamentals of canoeing safely and effectively
* Bowing & sterning
* Paddle strokes & techniques (including the J stroke!)
* Capsizing & righting a canoe
**Who is this course for?:** It is a day designed for anyone who wants to stop fighting the wind and start *gliding through the wilderness* with ease.
If you have never held a paddle before and want to start with the right habits, then this clinic is for you. If you have some experience but want to refine your technical skills for longer trips, then our guides can help you dial in your form. We provide the canoes, paddles, and safety gear so you can just focus on the rhythm of the water.
**Interested in joining this year’s Epics? Completing this and other relevant courses will support your approval process for advanced adventures.**
**Included:** Rentals for the canoes, paddles & life preservers.
**Who It’s For**: Beginner and intermediate paddlers who want to develop and hone their skills, as well as practice real-world simulations of emergency situations.
**Highlights**
**Outdoors Skills Training:** Develop essential skills to survive and thrive in the wild.
**Expert Instructors:** Our amazing expert guides will teach you everything you need to know in a safe and fun way.
**Backcountry Readiness:** These skills are the building blocks for every major wilderness expedition we run. Mastering these basics ensures you are ready to tackle vast, untouched lakes and winding rivers on your next big trip.

**About Wilderness Union**

Observation Decks, City Icons & A Once-a-Year Experience
Some places in Toronto you walk past every day… but rarely get to go inside.
This is your chance.
Join us for a special Doors Open Toronto outing, where we’ll explore two of the city’s most iconic buildings — including access to spaces that aren’t usually open to the public.
This event only happens once a year, and it’s one of the best ways to experience the city from a completely different perspective.
This is not a formal tour.
It’s a social outing — with incredible views, a bit of history, and shared discovery.
📲 **Join Our WhatsApp Group:**[ Click here to join](https://chat.whatsapp.com/DRFTkxRlHS4B3IL1lMleUd)
\*\*\*
🏙️ What We’ll Do
We’ll start at TD Bank Tower (66 Wellington St W), part of the Toronto-Dominion Centre — one of the finest examples of modernist architecture in the city, designed by legendary architect Mies van der Rohe.
We’ll head up to the observation area (approximately 223 metres high), where you’ll get a stunning view of Toronto’s skyline from a space that isn’t typically open to the public.
From there, we’ll walk over to Toronto City Hall and visit its observation deck.
Opened in 1965 and designed by Finnish architect Viljo Revell, City Hall’s curved twin towers and central council chamber make it one of Toronto’s most recognizable landmarks.
From above, you’ll get a completely different view of Nathan Phillips Square and the downtown core.
⚠️ Please note: both locations are very popular during Doors Open, so there will likely be wait times. Part of the experience is the buzz and energy of the day.
Afterward, we’ll head over to CF Toronto Eaton Centre for a casual lunch in the food court. 🍔🥗
You’re welcome to join or head out whenever you like.
\*\*\*
**🏛️ What Is Doors Open Toronto?**
Doors Open Toronto is a free annual city-wide event that opens the doors to architecturally, historically, and culturally significant buildings across Toronto.
For one weekend, you can explore spaces that are usually closed to the public — from office towers and historic sites to creative and civic spaces.
It’s one of the best ways to connect with the city and see what’s normally hidden in plain sight.
\*\*\*
🌦️ **Weather & Expectations**
This event will run rain or shine.
Be prepared for:
✔️ Walking between locations
✔️ Standing in lines
✔️ A busy, energetic atmosphere
Wear comfortable shoes and bring patience — it’s part of the experience.
Also — this is NOT a guided historical tour. I’ll share context casually, but the focus is on exploring together.

Laughter Yoga, Sound Healing & Breathwork Experience (Toronto/GTA)
**Laughter Yoga, Sound Healing & Breathwork Experience (Toronto/GTA)**
By **[Lynn Himmelman, Life Transformation Mentor](https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/laughter-yoga-sound-healing-breathwork-experience-torontogta-registration-1972773377277?aff=erellivmlt#organizer-card)**
[The Redwood Studios: 3rd floor (stairs)Toronto, ON](https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/laughter-yoga-sound-healing-breathwork-experience-torontogta-registration-1972773377277?aff=erellivmlt#location)
Sunday, May 24 • 10 AM - 4 PM
**Overview**
An embodied experience of laughter, breath, movement, and vocal sound play - where voice and expression are felt - not performed.
**Remembering Who We Are: A Day of Radical Joy through Laughter Yoga & Vocal Sound Play**
Join us **in person** for an uplifting and interactive experience - a **one-time** unique intertwining of the expertise from two well-seasoned workshop facilitators: Lynn Himmelman, Champion of Laughter & Play and Ann-Marie Boudreau, Vocal Sound Play Specialist Extraordinaire!
**“Before the world told you who you should be, who were you?”**
Most of us have spent years perfecting a "mask"—a version of ourselves that is quiet, composed, and compliant. But behind that mask lies a version of you that is ***loud, rhythmic, and wildly alive.***
In a world that often asks us to "dampen down" our inner spark to fit into boxes and meet societal expectations, it’s easy to lose the melody of our own spirit.
***This workshop is an invitation to strip away the "shoulds" and step back into the vibrant, uninhibited version of yourself.***
This full-day intensive is ***a sanctuary for the unmasked version of you to come out and play***.
By weaving together the breathwork of **Laughter Yoga** with the resonance of **Vocal Sound Play**, we create a safe container to dissolve the "cloak" of adulthood and remember our original state: ***pure, uninhibited connection.***
**What to Expect**
This isn't a choir rehearsal or a gym class—it’s a journey of reconnection. We use movement, rhythm, and sound to bypass the analytical mind and tap into the wisdom of the body.
* **Laughter Yoga:** We utilize intentional laughter as a form of exercise. No jokes are required! Through playful movement and eye contact, "fake" laughter quickly transforms into the genuine, contagious, belly-aching variety.
* **Vocal Sound Play:** We move beyond lyrics and "good singing" to explore the raw power of the voice. Through toning, chanting, and melodic improvisation, we release stored tension and reclaim our unique frequency.
* **Childlike Play:** We revisit the freedom of childhood - before life lured you into a box of limitations - to rediscover a sense of wonder and curiosity.
**The Journey Back to "You"**
The goal of this workshop is a profound **"Remembering."** Together, we will:
1. **Shed the Armor:** Use movement to shake off the weight of societal expectations.
2. **Open the Heart:** Use laughter to break down emotional barriers and foster deep connection.
3. **Find Your Frequency:** Use vocal play to express the truths that words often fail to capture.
4. **Reclaim Play:** Remember that joy is your birthright, not a luxury.
***"Laughter is the shortest distance between two people, and song is the bridge between the human and the divine."***
**Who This Is For**
**This space is for those who feel:**
* A longing to express more fully, but something holds them back
* A sense that their voice—literal or metaphorical—has been muted
* A desire to reconnect with joy in a way that feels real, not forced
You do not need to be "funny," and you certainly do not need to be a "singer." You only need a willingness to listen inwardly…and allow something to shift.
If you have a heartbeat and a voice you are perfectly qualified to attend. Come as you are . . . and leave as who you ***really*** are.
**What You Will Reclaim**
* **The Freedom to Play:** Reconnect with your "Inner Child"- the one who laughed without a punchline and sang without a stage.
* **Somatic Release:** Use the combination of sound and laughter to flush cortisol out of your system and replace it with a "cocktail" of endorphins and oxytocin.
* **Vocal Empowerment:** Stop "dampening down" your soul. Learn to take up space with your breath and your sound.
* **Heart-Centered Connection:** Experience the profound bond that forms when a group of people drops their guards and meets in a space of shared vulnerability.
**What You Will Leave With**
Not just an experience - but a felt sense you can return to.
* The memory of your unfiltered voice
* A body that knows how to release, not just hold on
* A deeper trust in your natural expression
And perhaps most importantly:
**the recognition that what you’ve been seeking…**
**has been within you the entire time.**
**Facilitators' Note**
*This is a "no-talent" zone. You don’t need a singing voice, and you don’t need to be in a good mood. We don't use jokes; we use the body. All you need is the desire to be seen and heard in your most authentic form. This workshop provides you with the “How”.*
**Participant Checklist**
* **Comfortable Clothing:** Wear something you can move, dance, and lie down in. Dress in layers to accommodate periods of heating up and cooling down.
* **Relaxation Props:** Bring a yoga mat, 1-2 pillows for under your neck and knees, a blanket or towel to cover yourself
* **An Open Mind:** Leave the "adult" at the door; they can pick you up at 5:00 PM.
* **Water Bottle:** Laughter and toning are thirsty work!
* **Brown Bag Lunch:** Bring food for yourself (Lean towards, fresh, organic, vegetarian choices in order to align with The Redwood Studios vegetarian policy)and (optional)food to share. Get to know your workshop playmates, socializing and breaking bread together, between our morning and afternoon workshop sessions, in our community gathering spot, The Redwood Green Room, 3rd floor. If you prefer to break away on your own for lunch, be aware that there are limited "eating out" options close enough to the venue to be back within the hour.
***Reconnect with your true self through fun, community, and joyful expression.***
**How to Claim Your Spot in the Workshop**
Please note that this event can be attended **in-person only**.
**Pre-registration is required.** Registration closes at 10pm May 23.

Break Up With What Broke You, Columbus, Ohio
On a list of "My Favorite Things", few people would put a "break up" in their top ten. More often, these words evoke feelings of shame, embarrassment, poor choices, and bad or sad endings. Before the new and beautiful can be built, the old, broken, and unnecessary must be cleared away. This process can be painful, but it is good, needful, and can produce wonderful results when done wisely and well.
How does one break free from anxiety, comparison, or shame? Christian Bevere points people to the freedom God desires for His children, as well as giving practical ideas on how to shed both unhealthy baggage and the lies that seek to leave us anchored to past failure. Drawing from the Bible, ***Break Up With What Broke You*** clearly shows that what Satan would seek to use for evil, God uses for good and to accomplish His purposes.
Join us **Tuesday, June 2, 2026, at 6:30 pm**, when we gather at **True Food Kitchen, Easton Town Center, Columbus**. We'd love to see you there!
