ABOUT
My name is Amy Larissa Shearer - I'm an Art Historian by training and a Yogi at heart. Originally from NJ, I've lived in St. Louis, New York, London (this last city long enough to become a British citizen!) and I now call Philadelphia home.
I started practicing yoga in 2000, motivated primarily by the external physical benefits. However, it was ultimately the internal mental and emotional rewards that kept me returning to the mat. Yoga has helped me to not only heal a fractured leg and repair a broken heart but also to better understand myself and my place in the world.
​
In 2017, I qualified as a Yoga Alliance Certified Vinyasa Flow Instructor. In 2018, I earned a specialization in Pregnancy (pre- and post-natal) Yoga and in 2020 I qualified to teach Yin Yoga.
​
I have been teaching small groups and individuals since 2017, and I have also continued to learn more about yoga to deepen my own understanding so I can help others enjoy the same life changing benefits.
