The SKinny

Hello, friend!

So, here is the skinny about yours truly, April Harrington. In my younger years, I danced my little heart out, as I got older my body had a harder time adapting to my point shoes. While I took a few yoga classes here and there, it wasn’t until I ventured to the Savannah College of Art & Design in Georgia where I truly fell in love with yoga. It was a way for me to move my body and appreciate it a little more. It gave me the the space to be with myself and my mind. On top of all the great body and mind benefits, yoga gave me the joy of a community, one that envelopes you in a hug without even putting arms around you; a cozy space to just be.

So, what’s with “Shanti”? Thanks for asking….shanti is the Sanskrit word for "peace" or "inner peace". I believe yoga is the building block for not only peace within oneself but that it can also radiate peace outward from oneself. Yoga helps build confidence in your physical body, helps give you the strength to exist within your mental body and helps give you the ability to live life peacefully and greatly.

I like to encourage a welcoming, judgement-free space, where you can go past your comfort zone and be your true authentic self. We will also listen to some sweet jams while we practice, so come join me and let’s share the peace!
