As founder of Prana Vinyasa and the Samudra Global School for Living Yoga, Shiva integrates the roots of vinyasa, yoga, Ayurveda, and tantra in creative, life-transforming courses and trainings. Her studies in Tantra, Ayurveda, Krishnamacharya lineage, Kalaripayattu from CVN Kalari, World Dance and somatic movement infuse her approach to living yoga and embodying the flow.

“Heart coherence is Shiva’s way -  inspiring, weaving everyone’s unique energies so that each person shines and is respected in the circle. She is an integrator, a synthesizer of worlds.

Since her teens, she has moved at the cutting edge of yoga. An intuitive with a deep bent for scholarship, a lover of science and a master of flow,  profoundly respectful of tradition.

Many people talk about integrating ancient wisdom and modern science. Shiva lives it.

She has practiced asana and devotion in deserts and remote forests. She climbs mountains and meditates in caves. She surfs, practices Indian martial arts, and has introduced a generation of yogis to prana vinyasa and ecstatic dance.

More than that, Shiva is a natural alchemist of the heart. She has taught thousands of people around the world to embody their life-force, to love fully, and to live creatively - tending the heart fire”
