Bio

Yelimar Rodriguez is the founder and director of Our Shanti. She has an unquenchable curiosity for applied anatomy, its translation to movement. She enjoys good food, good music, travel, soulful movements, and most of all sharing these things with others in the spirit of play and growth.

Her style of teaching is invigorating, challenging, and playful. Classes revolve around deep core integration, alignment, building strength, and simple yet powerful balancing adventures.
