Shakthi Ganeshan has been teaching yoga and meditaiton for years. She brings gentleness and vitality in her yoga class, warmth and laughter. She is a physician, an Indian classical dancer and brings that wisdom to her teaching. She is trained as a doctor of Internal Medicine and Pediatrics MD, and has a Masters in Public Health. She also has trained in the Community Dharma Leaders training in the tradition of Vipassana with Insight Meditation Society and Spirit Rock and brings those teachings to students of meditation. Shakthi delights in making ayurvedic food, writing poetry and prose, and studying singing. You’ll leave her class feeling open, re-vitalized.

Shakthi's yoga retreat in the Santa Cruz Mountains was a nourishing blend of asanas and meditation in a majestic setting under the redwoods. I especially appreciated the healthy balance of silence and talk. The yogic texts and philosophy she shared provided additional depth to the experience. Her skillful choices of outstanding Aryuvedic chef and soulful musician meant our taste buds and ears were delighted. I look forward to continuing my practice with Shakthi.

What a nourishing, reflective, and inspiring retreat. I am absolutely atonished how much wellness was created on this time we shared together. We had spaciousness for meditation, yoga, ceremony, hiking, swimming/cold plunges, wisdom shared with nourishing food prepared for us each day. I'm so grateful for the beautiful space and teachings from Shakthi.

It was a magical weekend! Such an incredible space, community and food. I felt as if I was able to really expand my practice of meditation because Shakthi and Whitney (and definitely Alex & Kayla as well!) were able to create such a safe and welcoming space. That weekend served as a turning point in my pregnancy, bringing me peace and calm and acceptance. I will look back on it whenever I need inner strength. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
