The instructors were all amazing and highly attuned to the students in the class. The energy and expertise they bring, along with the sense of culture and propriety, which seems to come from all the members of the staff, makes this place really special. The Maui Yoga Shala is a wonderful place to strengthen and heal your body. I can’t wait to go back!

Thanks for several wonderful experiences! We’ve had couples massage, yoga, surfing lessons and enjoyed the Island Fresh Cafe – definitely a place to visit when in Paia! Mahalo!

I am SO glad I listening to the YES I felt in my heart when I found the Shala online while looking for where to train. My Yoga Teacher Training experience here was absolutely life transformative. I anticipated learning how to teach a yoga class, but received much more. It really is a homecoming to the truth and love that is all of our true nature.
