Shiva Yoga Shala SWFL

Shiva Yoga Shala SWFL Shala means home. We offer the highest quality Yoga instruction by experienced and compassionate teachers. Welcome hOMe🕉️
Est. 2015 Welcome hOMe.

Experience a variety of styles and practices, including an Aerial Yoga studio two doors down from the main studio. Shala is a sanskrit word meaning “home”. Therefore, a yoga shala is a gathering place for students of yoga to practice, share, experience and grow. The Shiva Yoga Shala is a sacred space for movement. In this space, we evoke the energy and learn to dance with Shiva, the Hindu deity of

destruction and transformation. In life, the only thing constant is change. In our Yoga practice Shiva is responsible for change through destroying the ego, and letting go of negative habits and attachments. Thus the power of destruction associated with Lord Shiva has great purifying power. In our main space, you will see a large statue of Shiva in his form, Nataraj, the “Lord of the Dance” to inspire and remind us to let go, open ourselves to change, and gracefully move through life. Our teachers create a safe space of acceptance and encouragement. Together we move to strengthen the unity of body, mind, and spirit. Each class offers a creative dynamic series of poses blended together with breath, music, and inspiration. A flow of energy and expression is created that strengthens your body, eases your mind, and touches your spirit. The Shiva Yoga Shala is a safe home for transformation. Our entire team is here to serve you on your journey.

✨ YTT WEEKEND 2: COMPLETE ✨

And after 10 years of Yoga Teacher Trainings… we are FINALLY remembering to take pictures to document each weekend. 😂📸 Better late than never!

After just 2 weekends of intensive training this very special group is already teaching over 20 minutes of a Vinyasa class!

Watching them begin to find their voices, awaken the teacher within, explore what makes a cue effective and land, learn to see their students, absorb so much learning, live the Yamas, and so much more… is inspiring to say the least 🙏🏽

There is something special about this group — their connection, curiosity, passion, willingness to learn, and the way they support one another.

Two weekends down, so much growth already, and so much more ahead. 🧡 When you see these gorgeous peeps in the studio make sure you send them extra love and encouragement for this amazing journey they’re on🥰

And so another circle begins tonight. 🕉️✨

These beautiful photos are from the final graduation circle of Cohort 6— the moment when months of learning, practicing, questioning, growing, laughing, crying and transforming came full circle.

And tonight, a brand new circle begins.

As we welcome our newest Yoga Teacher Training cohort 11 into The Shiva Yoga Shala, our hearts are full of excitement for everything that lies ahead of them.

May this training challenge you.
May it open you.
May it introduce you to parts of yourself you haven’t met yet.
May you find strength in one another.
May you laugh — a lot.
May you surprise yourself.
And may the person who sits in your final circle be changed by the journey that begins tonight.

We send our prayers and blessings over this new group as they take their first steps together. 🙏

Welcome, Cohort 11. Your journey begins tonight. 🕉️

🎉 Happy Birthday to our very own Giana Montoya! 🎉

Today we celebrate one of the hearts behind The Shiva Yoga Shala.

As co-owner, teacher, mentor, and lifelong student of Yoga, Giana has dedicated decades to helping others discover strength, resilience, honesty, and a deeper connection to themselves through their practice.

With more than 24 years of teaching experience and as Southwest Florida’s leading Forrest Yoga teacher, Giana is known for her intelligent sequencing, exceptional anatomical knowledge, and the precise cues that tap students into their bodies on another level ✨

Her passion extends far beyond the physical practice. She has built a Yoga and dance community (Montoya Dance Company ) rooted in compassion, authenticity, and growth, inspiring countless students to move with purpose, breathe with intention, and discover what they’re truly capable of.

If you’ve ever taken a class with Giana, we’d love to hear from you! Share your favorite memory, lesson, or something you’ve learned from her in the comments below. ❤️

Please join us in wishing Giana the happiest of birthdays and an incredible year ahead! 🎂🎈
