YES, I'M READY TO TEACH MEDITATION

Does this sound like you?

  • You know how good meditation is for you, but you've struggled to keep up with it for more than a few days.
  • Because your own meditation practice is off-on, you feel like a fraud trying to teach it.
  • You totally get it when students tell you they can't sit still or their body aches in traditional meditation.
YES I'M READY

What if I told you there was an easier way?

Whether you want to deepen your knowledge or become a meditation teacher,
you can learn the tools to change lives (your own included).

Find a meditation style that works for you and stick with it through life’s ups and downs.

Go from “I know I should” to “I gotta have it” and help others get excited about their practice, too.

Learn tangible practices with proven results that you can combine with your own teaching style.

I've been there, too

I fell in love with postures, and soon, savasana was my favorite. It got to where I wanted longer and longer final relaxations, so I thought it was time for “real” meditation.

It quickly became apparent I couldn’t sit in lotus and shut my mind off for 20 minutes twice a day. I felt like both a failure because my practice was random and sporadic.

And every time I taught meditation in yoga teacher training, I felt like “fraud” was flashing on my forehead.

Fast forward a few years where ego yielded to maturity.

Like so much about yoga, the practices ebb and flow based on what’s happening in life.

Now postures are less about aesthetics and more about nurturing my creaky body. Deep breathing isn’t reserved for yoga classes only, and mindfulness isn’t a new age buzz word.

Hi there, I'm Shannon

For 20 years, I’ve been helping women realize their dream of becoming compassionate, confident, and competent yoga teachers.

I show women they don’t have to be a certain size or race, own expensive clothes and accessories, or contort their bodies into impossible shapes to be a “real” yoga teacher.

Teaching yoga (and meditation) isn’t about your age, Sanskrit fluency, or having an Instagram feed filled with fancy photos. It’s about creating an inclusive space that allows individuals to experience a transformation.

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