OM Teaching Staff
HEATHER SHAW
Heather Shaw offers vinyasa yoga deeply rooted in her own experience of the flow. Her classes ride the rhythm of the breath to find flexibility in body and mind, blending fluid movement with careful attention to alignment. Heather’s yoga practice began in the early Nineties as a misadventure from her life as a dancer, but it was only a matter of time until she realized that yoga is the dance and has happily been standing on her head ever since. She began teaching in 2002, but remains ever-grateful for the wisdom of her own teachers, as well as the sangha of OM yoga center, where she has humbly served as everything from office staffer to teacher training faculty member over the past decade. In this lineage however, Heather’s most influential teacher continues to be her son Campbell, who reminds her daily that true strength comes from an open heart and flexible mind.
