Amazing staff, facility, and classes. Not your every day "Health Club" yoga: this is the real thing. I've been attending classes for years, tried several different instructors and workshops, and have always been impressed. ...

The Shanti teaches REAL yoga – a balanced, more sincere way of living. I have been attending classes here for years and can't imagine going anywhere else! The instructors and staff are wonderfully knowledgeable and caring. They have fostered a safe and supportive community as well. I especially like that they offer classes in the evenings, because that is the only time that works for my schedule. I am definitely a better, more centered person than I was when I started, but I appreciate the emphasis that Yvonne, the owner/instructor, places on yoga as a practice, not a perfection, because I'm still learning!‎

Upon entering the Shanti Yoga Center, you are greeted by the warmth of your cozy living room before you move into the sanctuary to "practice" your yoga. By the time you leave your class your body and your spirit is completely renewed...You will never be the same! I have been a student of the Shanti since it's conception, and I know without a doubt I am a much better person for it! The "kula" or community that has transpired there over the years is completely loving and supportive. the space is magical and the instructors are all equally gifted, unique and loving. There are classes for all levels and everyone is acknowledged and safe to be where ever they are at any given time. I highly recommend The Shanti for anyone interested in exploring the world of Yoga for the physical as well as the spiritual journey. I live in Portland, where there are tons of yoga studios, but have no problem heading up to downtown Vancouver to continue my practice. Om Shanti, Peace ...

The instructors are so amazing and the facility is beautiful. If you are looking for Real Yoga, not health club fitness yoga, this is it. --And yes, you will sweat, become stronger, more flexible, and learn to breathe and relax. But if you wish, you will also challenge yourself mentally and emotionally as you push to open your mind to new ways of thinking and a new way of being as you learn to practice the path of Yoga, in your every day life. --It's awesome. I've been going here for years. Plus I love to shop in the bookstore/yoga shop. ;) The staff is super friendly and welcoming and variety of classes diverse. My favorite mid-week getaway.‎
