Introduction

Hi, I’m Shelby! I design unique yoga sequences that harmonize effort and ease, nourishing your mind, body, and heart. You can expect to gain strength, flexibility, and confidence by taking my classes. My style of teaching is a creative blend of fluid movements that feel amazing in your body. Whether you're looking for a fiery and dynamic practice, or a soothing and relaxing practice, I am here to serve you. With extensive training in both vinyasa and yin styles, I have an excellent foundation to guide you safely and joyously! I offer aromatherapy, hands on assists, props, and playlists for your yoga experience. I am passionate about keeping the student at the center of my teaching, ensuring that each class is designed with your specific needs and desires in mind.

Q&A

What is your typical process for working with a new customer?

I typically ask you what your goals are and what you hope to gain from your yoga classes. This could mean specific emotions/feelings, anatomy, specific poses, yoga philosophy, etc. I will also want to know the times and days that best fit your schedule and whether or not you prefer hands-on assists.

What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

I have a 200 hour certification in Vinyasa and an additional certification in Yin. I have taken continuing education courses as well to further hone my craft of teaching.

How did you get started doing this type of work?

I fell in love with yoga when I was a college student. I began practicing in my room every day, until I eventually had the goal to share the practice myself. I became certified in 2019 and couldn't be happier to do what I love every day!

What types of customers have you worked with?

I have taught everyone and anyone! I have taught children as young as 3 years old, elderly adults as old as 93 years, and everyone in between! I have taught children with special needs, chair yoga, yin, vinyasa, hatha, meditation... you name it. The age group I teach most regularly is adults ages 23-65. I teach strong and dynamic vinyasa classes, as well as extremely calming restorative classes.

Describe a recent project you are fond of. How long did it take?

A recent project is my mala necklaces! I am so excited to be hand-crafting such stunning jewelry infused with intentions. You can shop them at my website :) They're each comprised of 108 beads, plus the larger guru bead in the center. I repeat an intention as I string each bead, infusing the product with positive energy. I hope you feel the radiance of these pieces when you wear them!

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

My advice would be to let go of expectations and allow your journey to unfold. Especially if you're a beginner! You're only a beginner in yoga once, and it is often the most magical part. Also, if you hire a teacher and you don’t resonate, give yoga another chance with a different teacher. There are so many styles of yoga and teachers, and I promise yoga is for you even if it takes you some time to find the right teacher.
