Team Building
at Ste. Anne’s
Providing new innovative ways to connect people and impart
knowledge, our programs will inspire, motivate and develop skills
that will have your team working collaboratively in the pursuit of
personal and professional excellence.
Culinary
Private Chef
One of the most unique attributes of Ste. Anne’s is the
ability to have our very own Chef prepare a delicious
4-course dinner for you in the privacy of your spa cottage
or at our Maison Sante Function room. This is your
chance to get all of your culinary questions answered and
really get to know one of Ste. Anne’s top Chefs.
Demonstrations
Interested in learning a few new culinary tips while at Ste.
Anne’s Spa? Join our Pastry Chef for topics from moulding
chocolates and bonbons, to creating marzipan fruits, and
designing artistic sugar creations. Baking not your thing,
then our Executive Chef can spend time teaching your team
how to make perfect hors d’oeuvres or decadent sauces.
Your group will choose hors d’oeuvre, appetizer, main
dishes and dessert in advance. Then look on as your Chef
creates tantalizing items like pesto shrimp wrapped in
cantaloupe, pan seared coconut crusted lake perch with
spicy caramelized onion and butter scotch crème brulee.
You can peruse the spa cottage dinner menu here.
Classes
Our Executive Chef is ready to inspire your team with local
seasonal fare and organic produce, enhance your cooking
skills and rapidly expand your recipe repertoire. Each class

Wellness Workshops
Breath and Meditation Techniques for the Workplace
In this 45-minute workshop, the instructor will introduce
participants to various breathing styles and simple
meditation techniques to help support a calm and centered
mind and body. This interactive workshop is suitable for
absolutely anyone and offers your employees skills that can
be easily applied in stressful workplace situations.
Workplace Stretching
For many of us who spend long hours sitting at desks and
behind steering wheels, poor posture is a challenge we
struggle with. One of the easiest and most effective ways
we can improve our posture and relieve tension in the body
is by incorporating simple stretching sessions into our day.
This workshop offers participants simple exercises that can
be done at work, in a small space, or seated at a desk, and
is suitable for anyone.
Healthy Backs: Strength Training Exercises for
Strong Backs
The more time we spend seated at desks, the weaker our
backs become. This one-hour session takes place at masion
Sante and guides participants through a series of strengthbased exercises using machines, free weights, and body
weight to build strength and mobility in the muscles that
stabilize and mobilize the spine. A certified personal trainer
will be your guide to ensure that all participants are performing
exercises safely and effectively. This workshop requires
proper running shoes, and that all guests are mobile.
Healthful Intentions
In the world of business, goal-setting is the way we move
forward and grow. In our personal lives, we often get so
focused on what lies ahead that we may overlook the gifts
we have today. In this introspective workshop, participants
will work through a questionnaire that asks them to reflect
and observe their current lifestyle habits and ways of
thinking, as well as their work/life balance. From their
observations, individuals will create intentions, affirmations
and personalized meditations based on the concepts of
mindfulness and the practice of gratitude, to support a more
balanced mindset and lifestyle.
Core Strength: Yoga and Pilates Exercises for Strong
Backs and Core
This is an excellent session to complement Strength Training
for Healthy Backs as participants are taught mat-based
exercises which help to strengthen and stabilize the core
and back muscles that support good posture and help
alleviate back pain. Taught as a fusion of Pilates and yoga,
your instructor will take you through a series of exercises,
stretches and postures designed specifically for those
looking to support a healthier mid-section. All participants
should be mobile and able to move freely from standing to
lying down.
