Shawn Green

Shawn is a California based Ashtanga teacher and owner of Om Shala Yoga studio.  He is a long time student and current assistant to senior teacher David Garrigues and is honored to have worked with hundreds of students across three continents.  Shawns goal is to promote inclusive Ashtanga, raise the standards of the student and promote safe and sustainable practice.  Shawn believes the discipline and philosophy are one and the same and that how a person approaches the simplest actions on the mat can echo out into ones greatest wishes and highest aspirations for their life.  His teachings are playfully earnest and he encourages students to explore yoga technology with a respect for the living tradition.
