I’ve practiced yoga at a lot of schools, under a lot of teachers, and I can honestly say that Shivani is one of the best. Shivani has a very deep understanding of yoga, and it really comes through in her teaching. You’ll feel the physical, spiritual, and emotional benefits of yoga all come together as one on the mat, and when you’re done, you’ll walk away a better version of yourself. Shivani is one of those precious teachers who can make you feel like that. And while you’re at it, you’ll have a lot of fun in the process!

I always love being in your classes Cielo. They are never predictable & I always feel amazing after. It helps that you have such an incredible spirit & energy & you are not afraid to express your emotions with us. It’s teachers like you who have inspired me to do the teacher training. I want it to be apart of my life in every way and I thank you.

Cielo introduced me to yoga through her Vinyasa power yoga classes at SFU. Prior to her class, practicing yoga was daunting thought, but since then has become a transformative daily practice. Cielo’s warmth, expertise, and patience are a winning formula. Taking her class was one of the best decisions I have ever made. Thanks Cielo!

To reflect on my experience with Cielo leads me to realize how in her classes I am consistently opened to a deeper understanding of yoga and myself. She brings to the room a level of passion and courage that moves me deeply within and evokes immense determination. Her integration of yogic philosophy with acute attention on our postures presents an unparralled class for me over and over again. Perhaps what speaks to me most me most about Cielo’s classes is the openess in giving her full self in teaching- candor, intensity, humor, and heart-wrentching accounts of motherhood and bravery. Her warrioriship creates profound inspiration. With gratitude beyond description, Noah.

“Thank you so much Cielo. I can’t tell you how much your instruction will benefit each and every one of us here at the Portables” “It was fabulously relaxing” “I was amazed” “I wish it was every day.” “I left feeling totally zen like.”

Your classes have had an enormous impact on me these last 5 weeks, they are absolutely wonderful. It has been a hard, stressful year . I am finally doing something for myself lately and it sure feels good. Thanks for your inspiring contribution to my new life.

Cielo’s ability to meet diverse individual levels inspires confidence and safety to challenge one in their personal yoga practice. Gratitude and blessings Cielo!

“I’ve been studying with Cielo for five years now, and it amazes me how she manages to teach me something new, every single time we practice. As a yoga teacher myself, I’m fascinated by her sequencing – always creative, always incorporating new asanas and variations – and her cuing mastery. Cielo can spot a student needing an alignment cue from the other side of the room and seamlessly call out a three or four word instruction that drastically refines the pose in the time it takes to take one inhale. Insightful and efficient, I borrow her lines constantly. But as a student of yoga, I appreciate her commitment to the deeper yoga tradition and how she’s logged substantial India time and done so much of the reading. Ask her to sing mantra for you – only India vets create vibrations like that. And she knows the Sutras well, the Gita and the ayurvedic concepts. ‘C’ can even tell you a little parable about Saraswati or Kali to help put your asana practice into a more meaningful context. It’s a comprehensive and well rounded practice grounded in something that is powerful and timeless which consequentially inspires me to be a better yogi – and I’m not talking about the poses. I would recommend studying with Cielo because she’ll help you get to where you need to go, and quickly It takes a keen eye, an extensive knowledge base and a lot of experience to know how to develop each student individually because everybody learns a little bit differently. Go take a look at one of her classes and you’ll notice that she appeals to a wide variety of people. That’s because Cielo English is the right teacher for every body.
