Shakti has been teaching yoga classes and workshops in Cleveland for the last eight years.  He has been practicing the art and science of yoga since early childhood. His early influences were his family, who taught him that yoga was a way of life.  Inspired by this early education, Shakthi has been fascinated by the power of the mind and the amazing abilities of the body, and has been on a journey to realize the true self. To fulfill this quest, he has sought teachers of different lineages to study in India and the US. He conveys the knowledge gained from this study only after experiencing this through his own practices.  He believes in facilitating empowering journeys for people to take their practice to a different level.

 Using yoga to further a deeper understanding of themselves through physical movement, breath work and meditation.  Shakthi’s classes are powerful expressions of the body and mind infused with timeless wisdom for an experience that takes people to an expansive spirit.

He brings a wealth of strength and leadership skills honed over many years of practice and understanding of yoga, dance, and martial arts.  He loves to take students beyond their self imposed limits and draw out their inner power, balancing playing the edge by creating a safe and playful environment for students to grow at their own pace.  He is a responsible and trusted teacher.
