A little bit about the owners
Marc Amphavannasouk
As Co-owner and Director of Awesome Hot Yoga, Marcs days begin with a practice of gratitude for the blessings of his path. He began practicing yoga in 2007, completing his Moksha training shortly thereafter in 2009. Building on this solid foundation, Marc completed other teacher training programs with prominent teachers including Ryan Lier, Shana Myerson ,Dina Tsoulouhas and Emily Easton. These experiences have shaped his teaching style to be enthusiastic while still remaining accessible to all practitioners. Marc has a passion for volunteering, teaching yoga to youth through Sistema(an inclusive after school orchestra program that focuses on children with the fewest resources and greatest need and is delivered at no cost to participants) . As a former Winnipeg blue bomber cheerleader, Marc is excited to open his own studio and create a community opened to passionate yoga practitioners of all levels, styles and lineages.

As a lifelong Buddhist, the philosophy of Yoga resonates with Vonne. She takes her yoga off the mat through Vipassana (Insight) Meditation, and reciprocates by infusing her yoga with Sati, Metta, and Karuna (Mindfulness, Lovingkindness, and Compassion). When she isnt at the studio Vonne can be found at Aromansse Meditation Studio or working at her job at the U of Manitoba. With Gratitude.
