About Shannel

A seasoned, multi-disciplined practitioner of Yoga and Wellness of over 18 years, my passion for the spiritual extends to Ayurveda as well as skills in both Chakra and Theta Healing.

Though from the UK, I grew up in East Africa and traveled extensively. Stints in South America, Southern Asia, Central Asia, Australia and Bali have taken me across the globe as part of my spiritual journey. I recently relocated to Dubai, UAE.

I deepened my practice of Yoga in India, where I studied and qualified across the key limbs of Hatha, Vinyasa Flow, Ashtanga, Yin and Restorative Yoga. Here, I also enhanced skills in Ayurvedic Dosha consultation, the ancient discipline of nutritional balance for mind and body.

I further qualified in the specialisms of Children’s, Pre & Post Natal, Fertility and Women’s Health Yoga as well as Guided Meditation. I have been fortunate enough to set up my own classes renting a studio in the UK as well as providing services in schools, leisure centres, corporations and shopping malls! (Harrods in Knightsbridge as part of the Sweaty Betty program)

My life journey has brought me a profound exploration of spirituality, enriching my practice and teaching. The sudden loss of my father at a young age, coupled with other significant personal challenges, has deeply influenced my spiritual growth and dedication to wellness. These life experiences have fueled my passion for understanding the unique needs and strengths of individuals, particularly women, at different life stages of life. This passion drives me to create supportive and empowering wellness practices that foster both physical well-being and spiritual growth.
