| | | About Shaffali : | | The original intention of yoga was to provide a path, rather than a specific structure, to help people realize their fullest potential. | | | | | Bio | | | Shaffali was born in India and although she was raised in Rhode Island, she feels very much connected to her roots through the spiritual household in which she grew up. Shaffali holds a Bachelors Degree in Business from Boston University. She has also earned her Skin Care (Esthetician) License and her Yoga Teacher Training Certification, which she received from a beautiful and peaceful Ashram in India called Yoga Vidya Dham. Her training focused on classical teachings of Hatha and Ashtanga Yoga, including yoga philosophy, meditation and pranayama. Shaffali was drawn to wellness from an early age and has been practicing yoga now for over a decade. For the past 7 years she has been working in the Spa, Yoga and Wellness Industry, holding various positions in Boston, London and California. Shaffali currently resides in New York City. | | | | Session | | Shaffali's yoga and wellness sessions are a fluid moving meditation. They emphasize the mind, body, breath and soul connection, which she encourages each of her clients to embrace fully: "Through this embrace and awareness, I believe we can become more conscious of every aspect of our lives, in both the microcosm (our being) and macrocosm (the universe), leading us to our highest potential, and in essence, our highest self". She enjoys creating an organic and intense flow to her session through music, intuition and the energy generated from her clients. | | | | Testimonials | | "I have been attending Shaffali's yoga class for nearly a year. I'm a 38 year old 6'4" male with a 20 year history of supposed "back pain", and also a person with an open mind. | | I have had the opportunity to work with at least 10 different yoga instructors, and I think Shaffali embodies the best of all of the instruction styles I have seen. What you get from her is: a non-competitive atmosphere, a thorough explanation of the poses and benefits, and an emphasis on body awareness and the mind-body connection. Shaffali is always open to feedback and suggestions to tailor the class to meet specific needs. | | I don't believe there is one miracle cure all for health, but there are more numerous smaller miracles in becoming aware of your own mental and physical health. Shaffali has helped me realize that Yoga is one of many ways in which start your path to health and rejuvenation. While my back is not perfect, I have been able to eliminate acute back pain attacks, and realize after several months of Yoga practice that tightness in my hip, knee and ankle was causing the back pain. Now I feel more confident and have more poise in my everyday activities as well as in more rigorous exercise if I choose to do so." | | To read more testimonials, please click here | | To learn more about Shaffali Yoga and Wellness or to schedule a complimentary consultation, please click here. | | You can also contact us by sending email to yoga@shaffali.com |
