I AM GASTOWN: TAMMY MORRIS, TANTRA FITNESS
We sat down (over Zoom) with founder of Tantra Fitness, Tammy Morris to learn more about what got her into the fitness biz, why Gastown, and where to find her dancing around the ‘hood.
Q: If you have $1000 to spend in Gastown, where would you go?
A: If I had $1000 to spend in Gastown I would definitely hit up Kit and Ace for my favourite tights! Then I would head over to Honey’s and get myself some sexy and unique lingerie and finally head over to Herschel. I am sorry, I can’t just pick one, the shopping in Gastown is awesome, I have to try and control myself every time I walk from the parkade to Tantra!
Q: Can you name a “Gastown moment” (something that wouldn’t happen in any other ‘hood)?
A: One of my favourite Gastown moments was in the summer when there was a group of tourists surrounding the steam clock while a street musician was playing his guitar, all the while the most beautiful wedding couple (bride with a full princess gown) was getting their pictures taken with all of this going on in the background. It was just such a cool moment that I can’t imagine would happen in any other ‘hood.
Q: Number one date spot in Gastown?
A: As a mother of three kids, I value quiet serenity so my ideal date spot in Gastown would be Water St. Cafe. It’s ambience is warm and quiet with amazing food and great service. What can I say, they are our neighbours!
