Shannon Jones
Shannon considers herself a daughter, granddaughter, sister, mom, aunt, woman of God, yogi, teacher, etc etc….and NOTHING. She learned years ago that to stand in nothingness is absolutely the best place to be.”I am nothing, yet everything everywhere,” is her description of herself in under 7 words.
As a yoga practitioner and certified Baptiste Yoga Instructor she aims to come from nothing when interacting on her mat and with others. From that place, Shannon allows for life and teachings to move through her, organically.
She loves to share and impart inspiration into others both in group classes and private settings. Shannon appreciates and instructs in a way that challenges both the body and mind. One of her greatest practices and lessons is the balance of sthira sukha asana. Sthira sukha asana translates to embracing strength and ease in the seat of your pose; this has become a part of who she is both on and off the yoga mat. Facing struggles (the piece that builds strength) physically, mentally, and often emotionally through yoga; has molded and defined her character, built a stronger relationship with God and spirit, and has softened (developed the ease) in her approach to herself and the world. From this place, she inspires, ignites, and creates a passion within her students towards whole health, in body, mind, and spirit.
Peace is her mantra. And the yoga path has become my way and platform to guide others on their paths. Peace to Shannon is: Possibility Everywhere Always Changing Eternally
