Hi there, I'm Shannon

For 20 years, I’ve helped women realize their dreams of teaching yoga.

Teaching yoga isn’t about Sanskrit fluency or having an Instagram feed filled with fancy photos.

It’s about creating an inclusive environment that gives individuals the space to experience a whole life transformation.

With my Texas-accented Sanskrit, T-Rex arms, and size 8 off-brand yoga pants, I teach one hell of a class.

Now let me show you how easy it is
to become an inspiring yoga teacher.
