"A gifted and inspired teacher and practitioner, Shana somehow manages to combine alignment, athleticism, technique, flow and a constant awareness and overlay of a simple spiritual connection. Be prepared to work hard but Shana's excellent instructions take you to your limit without undue stress....She'll have you accessing the power in power yoga. What she offers...is a steady stream of checkpoints and corrections that utilize the body, mind and spirit and takes you into an experience of a truly balanced practice. Intelligent, dedicated, constantly seeking new means of expression, Shana is a teacher I can't recommend highly enough."

Jerry Colker, Founder of YODO Total Fitness & Health

I've never been in a class that helps us into positions I've only seen in books, and marveled that anyone could even think of doing it, and you show us that it is possible. I love it, and am grateful for your beautiful gift of sweet, challenging, lighthearted and deep attitude."

"…My arms were ready to crumple (and they did a couple times) this morning but I felt positively challenged and really liked your description about a second wind, about knowing that we're strong enough, about thinking of other things... definitely breathing is something I forget sometimes. How just focusing on the breath I can get through anything."

Christina Kelso, SMPY Student
