It has been an honor to teach at Shambhala for the past 13 years! I love seeing you all in the studio, around the neighborhood, and value the friendships that have come from meeting here and practicing together. Shambhala has given me so much and I am truly grateful. I'm away for most of the summer but will re-establish yoga classes, yoga nidra workshops and Reiki trainings in the Fall. If you're interested in hearing more, be in touch, or join my (very infrequent) newsletter for future offerings: https://journeythroughyoga.com/enewsletter/

Hi all! While I am sad about the discontinuation of Shambhala's studio classes, I am excited to remain in community with you all. I taught the 12:30pm Saturday Yoga Basics class for the last 2.5 years. I am so grateful to have gotten to cross paths with many of you and to share this powerful healing practice. I hope to continue to offer yoga classes by booking Shambhala space. I also will be partnering with Claire at Linden Movement Lab to offer yoga at Prospect Park. In my classes, you can expect safe and inclusive alignment cues, intelligent sequencing, and a focus on body-mind-spirit awareness. With a background in dance and meditation, I mix dynamic movement with thoughtful introspection. Rooted in the belief that how we move on the mat is how we move through life, I hope to honor yoga’s roots and help you tap into your inner wisdom. Going forward, I intend to teach a mix of all-levels vinyasa, power, yin, and basics. Feel free to reach me via email at azhanglulu@gmail.com, text at (650) 761-2898, or instagram at _luluyoga. I would love to stay in touch!Where to practice with me: Arise (crown heights + bed stuy), studio umi (ditmas park)

Thank you all for enriching my yoga experience. It’s been an honor to cultivate community at Shambhala with you. You can find me teaching regularly at Bouldering Project in Gowanus as well as Yogis & Yoginis in Park Slope. My classes are primarily Vinyasa based, but I often sub Yin, Restorative, and Prenatal styles as well. DM me on IG @jennybkasana for private yoga, soundbath, or reiki sessions. Looking forward to seeing you on the mat soon!
