Are you the owner of Yoga with Shanta?
Yoga with Shanta is a tranquil and rejuvenating yoga studio and Reiki therapist located in the heart of Edinburgh, Scotland. With a deep-rooted passion for traditional yoga, Shanta invites students to relax their bodies and calm their minds through the combination of breath, movement, and relaxation.
Shanta's vision is centred around the idea that yoga is not just a physical practise, but an inner journey that brings joy and enhances overall well-being. By incorporating elements of breathing, relaxation, and movement, her classes aim to foster a connexion between the mind, body, and spirit, ultimately promoting feelings of calm, strength, and inner peace.
Born out of her own personal experiences with yoga, Shanta's journey has led her to develop a strong connexion with her Indian heritage. In an effort to deepen her understanding of this ancient Indian practise, she embarked on a Yoga Teacher Training programme at the Sivananda Ashram in Madurai, India. This authentic and traditional environment allowed her to immerse herself fully in the philosophy of yoga as a comprehensive system for personal growth and self-development.
The studio itself is a serene and inviting space, exuding tranquilly and radiance. With small class sizes limited to five students, Shanta ensures an intimate atmosphere where participants can completely relax and focus on themselves. The small size also allows for individual attention and the opportunity to ask questions freely, further cultivating a sense of comfort and ease.
Classes are offered on Tuesdays and Wednesdays at 7pm, as well as Thursdays at 10am. Whether you are a seasoned yogi or a beginner, Shanta's classes welcome students of all levels. By incorporating both core poses and less common ones, she adds variety and excitement to each session. Her teaching style is gentle, professional, and reassuring, creating a calming experience that leaves participants feeling stretched and rejuvenated.
Many students also report improved sleep and a greater sense of inner peace after attending her sessions.
For those who prefer a more personalised experience, one-to-one sessions with Shanta are available. These sessions are particularly ideal for beginners seeking a more individualised approach in the peaceful atmosphere of her studio. Shanta expertly breaks down poses, making them accessible to all, and offers variations suitable for beginners with limited flexibility.
