For Shari, yoga is a profound life companion that has transformed her mental and physical health, especially amidst health challenges. It’s brought her newfound flexibility, inner peace, and mental fortitude, making her yoga mat a sacred refuge of resilience and serenity.
Shari's teaching transcends mere postures; it's a journey toward valuable life skills like presence, empathy, and mental harmony. In her classes, professionalism, punctuality, and effective communication are woven into the very fabric of her teaching style.

Guided by mentors Melissa Herzog, AUM Creatrix and Amanda Carter, Master Reiki Teacher. Shari's classes are not just yoga sessions; they are sanctuaries of safety, where yoga, breathwork, and meditation come together to leave students feeling relaxed and truly centered.
Outside the yoga studio, Shari's interests in workshops, retreats, gardening, and nurturing healthy cuisine are an extension of her commitment to holistic well-being. She also finds rejuvenation by the Gulf of Mexico, where she immerses herself in the soothing waves and tranquil beach walks. Shari's journey is an embodiment of her dedication to well-being and an invitation to connect with her on a path toward inner serenity.
I love Shari’s gentle yoga class. As a working mom, it’s so nice to put time into myself and just focus on one thing for an hour. She always creates a relaxing atmosphere and incorporates effective stretching, knowing our strengths and making sure we are comfortable. I look forward to slowing down and doing this each week

I’ve been going to Shari’s yoga classes for a few months now and love the energy that she gives before, during and after each practice. She’s always gives alternative poses and is always ready to help if needed.
