Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga is a style of yoga as exercise created during the 20th century that offers 41 poses in succession to connect movement, breath, concentration, and inward focus toward stillness and relaxation. Join Sam Shouse, E-RYT 200 every week for an active and invigorating practice!

Sam (he/him) discovered yoga in 2005 as a way to promote physical and spiritual balance but the practice took on a new sense of urgency after a serious skydiving accident. Yoga soon became a way of life and Sam completed his RYT-200 certification (Yoga Alliance) in 2009 under Akasha Ellis.

With over 1,000 hours of teaching experience, Sam is now E-RYT200 certified as a Yoga educator. He incorporates elements of Ashtanga, Kundalini, and Vinyasa Flow Yoga into his teaching through rhythmic breathing and coordination with challenging postures in a flowing style.

Sam strongly feels that consistent practice develops a meditative awareness of the mind/body connection and he hopes to help others explore this intensely physical practice and lead healthier, happier, and holier lives.
