ABOUT SATORI

Satori is a body + mind wellness studio and social impact business located in Calgary, Alberta.  The "Studio" side of Satori focuses on classes and workshops for adults and children in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, Self Defense, Yoga, Meditation/Breathwork, and Ginastica Natural/Movement.  The "Services" side of Satori offers Birth Doula Services and Massage Therapy. Satori also offers classes in Okotoks, AB.

Satori is a Japanese Buddhist term, translated as "awakening" or "understanding".  It is often considered one's first step on the path towards enlightenment. 

 

Satori began in 2011 after Diana completed her certification as a Shiatsu Therapist through Mount Royal University. Diana's vision then was to build a practice which offered multi-disciplinary services to support the individual.  However, after having 2 children {the light of her life!} and becoming a Birth Doula, she decided to shift her focus to one that focused on families as well.  This, later combined with her martial arts background, became a unique union of body + mind.  Her vision evolved to offer a variety of classes and services to support families and individuals throughout various stages of growth - with a objective centered around wellness and martial arts.

 

-  "I fell in love with the term "Satori" when I was doing my Shiatsu studies.  The moment I came across it, I felt a deep connection to the term. The more I learned about it's meaning, the more I realized it was exactly what I wanted to name my business.  This time in my life (2011) was a very pivotal time for me in my growth; I began a journey that has lead me to discover ever-growing passions - a journey that continues to evolve and be centered around community and social impact.   When we are able to look within and show up, it unleashes such a remarkable potential for us and those around us.  There is also a balance there, as in nature, that relies on a dichotomy of opposite forces and energy. Finding the right balance and harmony is unique to each individual.  Choosing healthy practices for body and mind, not only, help us to find that harmony, but it also opens up creating a life of joy, transformation, healing, happiness, impact, and great health."    ~Diana
