      Shamanism + Reiki

      Shamanic Reiki is a form of energy healing. It is the merging of two of the most ancient healing modalities to create balance in our subtle body and deep trust in ourselves. The principle of self reliance as we navigate our healing journey.


      Shamanism is one of the oldest forms of spirituality that exists today. It is not a religion, it is a technique that relies on our personal connection to Great Nature. In Shamanism, we connect to the wisdom of the Great Spirit and Mother Nature to assist and guide us on our awakening process. It is one of the most powerful experiences towards self love. 


      Reiki works directly with our personal nature in the form of energy. It's simple, safe and easy. The word Reiki comes from Japanese and is generally translated as “universal life force." Practicing means becoming a conduit, allowing the universal energy, breath, qi, or Ki to flow through us promoting health, harmony, balance and wellbeing

      SKY TING was created for anyone looking for tools and techniques to handle life more gracefully and see the magic in a long life lived. We offer a practice that refines our ability to stay connected, be well-adjusted, develop greater consciousness, discover radiance, use life to our own advantage, and ultimately experience more JOY! SKY TING YOGA is medley of lineages. All styles of yoga have something different to offer, and cross-pollinating yogic material allows us to create a method wholly new and unique, yet refined with rich substance and history. Our teachers are encouraged to blend the yoga material they practice, identify most with, and believe in, rather than sticking to the prescribed, generic curriculum. This ideology creates a passionate, responsive and nurturing learning experience for our students. Our goal is to make the practice safe and approachable for anyone, while keeping the magic of yoga alive. (212) 203-5786 INFO@SKYTINGYOGA.COM @SKYTINGYOGA

      WOWWWWWW - it's three days later and I'm still absolutely buzzing from Chelsey's training!! I knew that I was going to have a great time and learn a ton, but this completely surpassed my expectations. 17/10. Chelsey is an incredible teacher in so many ways - yogis and athletes of all experience levels, ages, and body types will greatly benefit from working with her. I can say with certainty that this five hour micro session has ALREADY made me a stronger teacher; my students have been blown away by the additional insights I've been able to weave in. Transcending the physical - wow. Chelsey has an amazing capacity to hold space and make everyone feel not only seen but valued. I can't wait to keep learning from her and the other amazing Sky Ting teachers as I continue to immerse myself in Nevine's magic. From the bottom of my heart THANK YOU ALL!!!! xoxoxo Maureen (Mo) Flynn

      I can’t recommend this course enough! I loved learning about new ways of dealing with trauma, anxiety, or even daily stressors. I have taken away so many tools that I learned in this course that I continue to use on a daily basis. Francesca is a knowledge guide in these modalities and created a comfortable environment for everyone to feel open to share and practice. If you are going through a tough time, on a healing journey or just curious of learning about new ways of healing yourself then this course is for you 😊

      I had a great time on this trip, but have been on another yoga retreat (in Tulum) that felt more organized. I loved flowing with Francesca and Brian, but felt other aspects could have been better. For example, I have a gluten allergy and it seemed like none of the servers even knew what gluten free was- they kept giving me vegan meals. (Compared to my last trip in Tulum where the chefs and staff went above and beyond to make sure my food was prepared separately and given to me every meal). This made me feel like a burden to the group, even though I mentioned this allergy before going. In addition, I had to wait at the airport alone for 2 hours before the rest of my travel group arrived. I reached out to sky ting about not wanting to be at the airport alone for this long, but they didn't help me. I didn't feel safe alone at the Cancun airport for that amount of time, and if I knew ahead of time this would be the situation, I would have organized my own transportation. I know others had trouble with their airport shuttle too. In addition, it was a solid hour from when I landed until I was contacted by my driver (who spoke 0 english). The hotel was good for the most part, but they were weird about giving us more water (!?) and towels, and there was no storage for our clothing. Overall a great retreat and great yoga, but felt certain aspects could have been better organized.

      We had a fantastic experience. the hotel was lovely and set amidst the Tulum Archeological Zone, which was a perfect setting for the yoga practice. the food was healthy, plentiful and tasty. the support staff were extremely accommodating. our yoga teachers, francesca and brian mixed it up in the classes in a delightful way and the yogis all seemed to get along like we were at summer camp! really enjoyable overall.
