Moksha Yoga

In January Greenworks was lucky enough to work with Monique Harris and Marie-Eve Boudreau, owners of Moksha Yoga in East Vancouver, on their new studio. They were very thoughtful about all the finishes they chose and were committed to building as green and sustainable as possible.  Greenworks supplied them with the Bamboo floor from Symmetry Bamboo for the studio as well as Green Planet, a clay-based paint which is a zero-VOC paint made without the use of petroleum. They also chose American Clay for two feature walls in the studio space. American Clay’s negative ions help to neutralize the static electricity associated with electronic gear from TVs to computers. For the bathrooms Greenworks had 2 custom vanities built with no added formaldehyde cases.  They topped them with Icestone counter tops. Icestone is a recycled glass and concrete countertop made in Brooklyn which is certified Cradle to Cradle. They painted the rest of the space with Yolo. They used some green products that Greenworks did not supply. They put some water filters on the taps to provide fresh drinking water and they used radiant heating panels to heat the space. They also have Caroma dual flush toilets which Greenworks now carries. This was a truly green renovation and Greenworks is very proud to have been a part of it. The studio is beautiful and they have great classes and events. Check them out.
