Sianna Sherman

Sianna Sherman is a yoga teacher and storyteller who has led classes, festivals and teacher trainings in dozens of countries over almost thirty years. She founded Rasa Yoga, a school whose trainings blend asana, mantra, mudra, breath, functional anatomy and Tantric philosophy, and she created Mythic Yoga Flow, in which each class is built around a tale of a deity, sage or hero from the yoga tradition, such as Hanuman, Ganesha or Lakshmi. Before yoga took over her working life she practised bodywork and gathered wild plants for herbal remedies.

Alongside yoga she studies Celtic lore and the eight festivals of the Wheel of the Year, which feed into RITUAL, her moon-based school of ceremony and earth-centred practice. She also works with hypnosis and shadow work, and her online community ALCHEMY meets each week for live yoga and mindset meditation. Many of her retreats are shared with her partner, the handpan and kirtan musician Masood Ali Khan, with whom she runs Fearless Heart Activations, a series of open conversations, and Alchemy of Love, on intimacy and self-love. Her recorded courses cover the chakras, mantra and Sanskrit, anatomy and Tantric texts, and she leads retreats at Esalen, the Sivananda Ashram in the Bahamas and in Peru.
