WELCOME FRIENDS!
I’m happy you’re here!
Are you ready to invite in whatever it is you’re meant to FEEL?

Noticing & exploring sensations as they arise organically?
If this sounds like something you’d be interested in, please connect with me.
“There are some people who are exceptionally talented and naturally born to increase vibration and heal humanity. Shannon’s AcuYin* into Sound offering is an example of her gifts and ability to raise consciousness. She naturally integrates SPIRIT, SOUND HEALING, YIN YOGA, & INTUITIVE PRACTICE to illuminate awareness around physical injury, trauma, & personal growth in the most organic and gentle way. Shannon is respectful of her students and acknowledges her practice on Chumash land. It’s a privilege to work with her and incorporate her teachings into my own life.” — Melissa (student)
* Note: The Acupuncture treatment offered during AcuYin is administered by Kristen Swegles, LAc.
“Shannon is a natural yogi. I have taken many yoga classes with various teachers, and I can honestly say that Shannon's energy and spirit stands out as one of the best. Within just a few minutes of being in her class, my mind was calm, my body was grounded, and I was inspired and excited to practice under her thoughtful guidance. Thank you yoga Goddess Shannon!”— Jennifer (student)
Plan your practice
Let’s create something beautiful together!
I invite you to take a look around my website. If you’re ready to begin or deepen your personal yoga practice, support your teen through this challenging time in their life, OR experience sound healing, let’s connect!
I’m thrilled to be offering safe, in-person, private & group sessions in and around Santa Barbara. Virtual lessons are also available.
NOW is the perfect time to ask for what you need.
By tuning in to our bodies, our minds, & our breathing, we naturally become more aware of our physical & spiritual needs.
When we connect movement (Asana) with breath regulation/control (Pranayama) & meditation (Dhyana), we go deeper into ourselves, exploring those needs more closely.
We can then practice relaxing and letting go of anything that no longer serves us. We may notice our nervous system calming down, our minds quieting, to a place where we might practice releasing stress & physical ailments.
A powerful, healing practice indeed!
INSPIRATION: Mindful Movement & Meditation for Teens, Tweens, & Kids
As a result of the Pandemic of 2020, we experienced challenges in ways that are unimaginable. “Pivoting” was what we adapted to, as we were pulled up by our roots, away from the “norm”. Constantly shifting our lives in the name of safety.
Unfortunately, many of us shifted from a space of isolation and rest, towards ramped-up schedules and “busy-ness”, without truly understanding what was going to happen next. Phew! What a roller coaster ride.
Children especially were affected, where many are still experiencing anxiety from pressure, stemming from: academics, social media, athletics/extracurriculars, and more.
It was during that time when I asked myself, “How can we better support our kids during this pivotal time?” The answer jumped out at me: By teaching them YOGA- ancient practice & skills to help bring balance, grounding, & rest into their lives.
It’s been my experience, that when kids practice yoga, they are better able to process thoughts & feelings with curiosity; learning to let go of attachment & judgement, so they can take action from a calm, rational, and more grounded place.
Practicing Mindfulness, or BEING PRESENT, helps to:
Unwind
Reduce Stress
Focus, Improve Concentration
Relax
Improve Sleep
Find Connection (with “self”, family, community)
Visualize Positive Outcomes for ourselves
My Mindfulness Series was created during the Pandemic, from a place of “need”, and is specifically geared towards adolescents, but ANYONE can benefit, accessing these ancient, transformative, & invaluable tools & techniques, ANY TIME! I’m here, if you’d like to discuss how these techniques might support your child/ren, yourself, AND your family.
