Yoga and Zen are souvenirs of a life well-traveled.

That said, you want more than watered-down fitness yoga and find yourself at a crossroads. You want a stronger more pliable body, but you’re also interested in the transformative powers that a proper, meditative practice can have on your mind and moods.
We are delighted to guide you on your yoga path. Here are 5 tips to get started.
Dive into the ocean of yoga with our Pre (50 hrs), Basic (200 hrs) and Advanced (350+ hrs) Yoga Teacher Training.
“YogaHotdish is well balanced in fundamentals, alignment and philosophy. Shaila is a compassionate, experienced and hilarious instructor.”
“Of the yoga instructors I have met, none of them has had as diverse and comprehensive a training background as Shaila. She combines Kripalu, vinyasa-lite, yin yoga, restorative yoga and smidgens of other schools to come up with hmmm, let’s see, a hotdish of styles that is still deeply grounded in yoga as meditation as well as for strengthening and flexibility. ”
“I have been doing Tuesday yoga with Shaila for 5+ years and it’s been great! I love the class and I feel that my flexibility has really improved, that’s saying a lot for a guy.”
Floors and decor shouldn’t matter in a meditation practice. Community, quality of instruction, and outside-the-mat thinking make it easy to “go studio-less!” You’ll find comprehensive yoga in serene spaces and venues with views. Sign up ANYWHERE, take classes EVERYWHERE.
