I have been a dedicated yogini since 1991 and has been teaching for 13 years. My background includes teacher certification from the International Sivananda Yoga Vedenta Centre, Diane Wilson of Portland Oregon and completion of teacher training with Ana Forrest of California and world-renowned teachers Angela Farmer and Victor Van Kooten.
I design my classes to honor each student and the group as a whole by drawing upon my experience and knowledge of yoga, which is deeply rooted in the Raja tradition—the Eightfold Path. I skillfully choreograph each class with postures to develop core strength, flexibility, and purification for the muscles, skeleton, and visceral body. I incorporate classical breath work to facilitate purification and energy. Most of all, I advocate inward focus and intention to create discipline of the mind, leading to change and empowerment. Om Shanti, Shanti, Shanti, Om Peace, Peace, Peace!

Review of Sharon Hanson, April 03, 2009
Sharon is just the right mix of physical and mental challenge, creativity and flow (and I have been to a LOT of yoga). Her classes are very creative; she does a fantastic job of integrating moves into new sequences and never leaving you bored or unchallenged. I am a total Sharon groupie: my week just isn't the same without her.

Review of Sharon Hanson, February 21, 2009
I'm really happy to be able to add my voice in praise of Sharon's classes. Her classes combine various forms of yoga, and the fact that she adds in the spiritual and emotional components puts her far ahead of any other instructor I've experienced. Her classes are always interesting, challenging, fun and fulfilling. Her style is easy going and inclusive of all skill levels, and I always come away feeling refreshed, relaxed and ready for the day. I cannot recommend her enough!
