Shiva Rea, M.A., is a leading teacher of prana vinyasa flow™ yoga
and yoga trance dance™ worldwide. She began exploring yoga at the age
of fourteen as a way to understand her name, given to her by her
father, a surfer and artist. Her studies in the Krishnamacharya
lineage, tantra, ayurveda, bhakti, kalaripayattu, world dance, yogic
art and somatic movement infuse her approach to living yoga and
embodying the flow. She is known for bringing the roots of yoga alive
for modern practitioners in creative, dynamic and life-transforming
ways and for offering the synthesis form of vinyasa flow out in the
world.
As a global adventurer, she has lead over 70 retreats
and pilgrimages nationally and internationally as well as served as a
creative catalyst for conferences, festivals and actions for the
environment, yoga and the arts including the third annual Yogini
Conference of Kripalu and Omega. Shiva writes for Yoga Journal and is
the author of award-winning CD's and DVD's to empower and transform
yoga home practice. She lives with her family near their favorite surf
break at Sunset Beach in Pacific Palisades, California. See the seva
