Shelley’s yoga practice and curiosity for movement with mindfulness began in 2008. She completed her first 200-hour teacher training in Rishikesh, India in 2016, with a focus on Ashtanga and Hatha traditions. She later completed a further 200-hour training with Gingi Lee and Kath Roberts during 2020–2021, deepening her understanding of yoga’s roots and philosophy.
