Shyla's Bio
In 2019, I received my 200hr YTT from Pure Living Yoga, and unknowingly walked into a path that would be a completely new landscape.
One of the biggest gifts that yoga has given to me, is providing me with the tools and vulnerability to embrace my heritage. For as long as I can remember I never wanted to be Indigenous, I was embarrassed and ashamed. All I thought I knew about being Indigenous was from hearing the negative things that people had to say. It has taken me 34 years to finally say that I am proud to be a Dakota woman.
In my classes you will experience the culture and wisdom that I have come to embrace. It’s important to me that my students feel supported, and safe as I take them on a journey of movement and breath through the self, to the self.
