Shilpa is a great teacher and that's all it takes to enable others to get in touch, radically, with their body/mind. During class she speaks to your body even before you understand what's going in an asana. She has a keen sense of judgment and makes gentle corrections that ultimately allow you to do better. For someone like me who is caught up in the everyday rush of professional life, Shilpa's yoga lessons have opened up an entirely new world where I'm more patient and acutely aware of my body and its constant possibility for change. Her instructions are clear and intuitive; at the end of the class, I find it easier to simply be more present in the movements of daily life. Thanks for the magic, Shilpa!
