At Oxygen Yoga & Fitness in New Westminster, BC, the front door opens to more than a workout studio. It opens to a place where people are known, welcomed, and supported. Owners Darren and Lindsay Flintoff says the studio was created with a simple goal: to bring something healthy and positive to the community her family loves. After 13 years, that idea has grown into a busy, warm, and loyal fitness family. “We opened the yoga studio really honestly to give back to the community,” Lindsay shared.

Lindsay and her husband, Darren, already knew business through years in the restaurant industry. But Oxygen Yoga & Fitness offered something different. It was a chance to support health, wellness, and connection in New Westminster.

Darren was born and raised in New West, and Lindsay has lived here for more than 30 years. Over time, she saw what makes the city special. People stay. Families put down roots. Friends grow up together and often return, even after moving away.

That same feeling shaped the studio.

Today, Oxygen Yoga & Fitness New Westminster has become a place where regulars greet each other like old friends. Some members have been coming since the doors first opened. Others walk in for the first time unsure of what to expect, then discover a space that feels safe and encouraging.

Lindsay says the studio has built its momentum through real relationships. People meet in class, chat in the lobby, and support each other through life’s ups and downs.

Despite the name, Oxygen Yoga & Fitness New Westminster is not only about yoga. Lindsay says many people are surprised to learn the studio is about 80% fitness classes.

Members can find cardio, strength training, high-energy workouts, yoga, and deep stretch classes. Some classes are intense and fast-paced. Others are slow, calm, and restorative.

Everything takes place in a heated infrared studio, which adds to the unique Oxygen experience. There are about 95 classes each week, led by a team of roughly 30 instructors. The studio runs throughout the day, making it easier for people with different schedules to join.

For those who want a quiet reset, the deep stretch classes offer a softer option. For those who want a strong workout, there are plenty of fitness-focused choices too.

Community is at the heart of Oxygen Yoga & Fitness. Lindsay says the team cares about the people who come through the door, not just their fitness goals.

The studio celebrates birthdays, first classes, milestones, and small personal wins. Staff are encouraged to offer kindness in simple ways, from cards to flowers to checking in when someone seems off.

That care often reaches beyond the studio walls. Oxygen has also supported local causes, including Rotary initiatives in New Westminster. Lindsay sees that kind of support as part of being a good neighbour.

“I think just do it because it’s the right thing to do,” she said when speaking about local businesses giving back. For her, community support is not about attention. It is about helping good work continue.

At Oxygen Yoga & Fitness, movement is not only about strength or calories. It is also about mental health, routine, and feeling better from the inside out.

Some members come for a hard workout. Others come because showing up was the biggest win of their day. Lindsay believes both reasons matter.

The studio has seen people lean on its community during very hard seasons of life. For Lindsay, those moments are a reminder that fitness spaces can be deeply human places. They can offer comfort, confidence, and connection.

The message is simple: come as you are.

From heated fitness classes to quiet moments of care, Oxygen Yoga & Fitness continues to build strength and connection in New Westminster.

Whether someone wants to sweat, stretch, reset, or simply feel part of a supportive local community, Oxygen offers a welcoming place to begin. Already know, like and trust Oxygen Yoga & Fitness? Be sure to support them and leave a Google Review.
