Yoga with Shawna is a full service studio, meaning she has classes for all levels, retail, "sound healing", essential oils, and a sauna and vibration table. All are welcome, and everyone can find a class at their own level, either Peace and Relaxation, Strength and Flexibility, or Power and Sweat. All the teachers are excellent. My husband and I go daily at 9 am, and its now a part of our daily routine. I believe that the meditation/ sound healing sessions have helped my

This studio is a gem. I've done yoga on and off for years, but I've often been turned off by the "fitness" atmosphere of most studios. Bright lights, mirrors, very little clothing on class goers, small studio spaces, etc. This has none of that and I love it. Just a humble community of people coming together to bring balance to their loves. The studio is HUGE, always smells lovely, the hardwood floors are glorious to lay on, and the variety of yoga has something for everyone. I really love the sound healing classes and the aromatherapy and I genuinely enjoy meeting the people in my community. This place is truly welcoming of all ages and fitness levels.

No one showed up to class, I booked a day in advance through class pass. I showed up 15 minutes before and there was a sign turned on that said open but doors were locked and no one was there. Would of appreciated if they would of send me a notification saying class was canceled.

Finding yoga studio with Shawna has been a blessing in my life. There are no words that can express how much this space has helped me navigate my life at this hectic time. The yoga studio has become a shelter for my soul.
Thank you, Shawna, for creating a safe space and an extraordinary studio for us to heal.
May everything you pour into us be returned to you multiplied ❤️
Namaste 🙏🏽

This is my zen place to visit! Reiki spiritually balances me and is affordable! I had a surgery last year. That was pretty intense. And I went in for Reiki a few times before my surgery to get me centered. It was amazing. The yoga classes are for everyone from beginners to advanced! I never leave without picking up an essential oil. The oils are produced to help heal medicinally as well as some I use in my diffuser.

Yoga with Shawna is such a wonderful place. You feel better just by walking into the calming space. The environment is very inviting. Staff is always friendly. Shawna herself is helpful and patient. Taking part in yoga here puts me in a better mood. No better way to start your day and set positive intentions. I love going to reiki Mondays. My favourite class to take is “yoga for power and sweat”, it’s a great way to get moving and strong.
I cannot say enough great things about this place. This is for sure my happy place ❤️

Shawna has a very heartfelt approach to all things yoga. I have taken her SUP Yoga Teacher Training(which was a blast!) as well as her Level 1 & Level 2 Reiki Trainings, and attended retreats in the desert and in Baja with her and lots of lovely folks. Shawna sincerely believes what she teaches. She has a loving, open heart and a fun but no-nonsense personality...highly recommend!

Bummer - I was so excited to leave this studio a great review. If you’re taking on ClassPass, I don’t recommend this studio. I was visiting town looking for a studio for my brother who lives about a mile away. ClassPass wasn’t allowing me to book morning of, so I decided to show up 30 minutes early to hopefully be able to still take class. The person who works the front desk wasn’t there, so a group formed outside & doors didn’t open until class time. Once we got in, I shared with Shawna my issue with ClassPass, and she was quick to indicate I couldn’t take class without offering any alternative way to stay. I had walked 30 minutes there, and waited 30 minutes outside at this point. As someone who is very involved in yoga & healing communities, I was shocked to see how she handled this - to turn someone away who put so much effort (& patience) into visiting the studio.
Maybe if you’re looking for a regular studio - give it a try. But if you’re coming from ClassPass or out of town, expect cold shoulder treatment & minimal hospitality.

Yoga with Shawna was my first experience with visiting a live studio, though I’ve dabbled in yoga at home for years. I wish I had gone years ago! The studio itself is beautifully decorated, welcoming, and restful. Shawna is a confident and capable leader with a contagious love of all things yoga and wellness. She prides herself on successfully creating a nonjudgmental atmosphere, concentrating on how we feel (not how we look) when in our poses. Her essential oils are next- level quality. All the teachers are amazing and so approachable; each one has a gift to offer. Even if you are shy, please come and join us on your own journey to health!

UPDATE - TODAY OCTOBER 11 at 3:45 pm
while at work SHE TRY TO CHARGE ALL THIS MONEY without a reason.
She instead of giving an explanation decided to rank my work with bad reviews .
:
I visited this yoga studio on Feb 2024 hoping to start my yoga journey , but found the experience rather disappointing, especially for a beginner. The instructors did not offer corrections or detailed guidance on the poses, which made it difficult to follow along and ensure proper form. This lack of support could potentially lead to injury or discourage newcomers from continuing with yoga.
Furthermore, my interaction with the studio's administration was less than satisfactory. I had some concerns regarding my account and billing, but my attempts to communicate with the owner were met with silence; they did not return my calls. The email responses I eventually received were lacked the professionalism I expected from a business addressing customer concerns.
Overall, my experience - poor communication and a lack of supportive instruction

Love this place! This studio, Shawna and the community that she brings together have literally saved my life! At a pretty rough time in my life, I was drawn to and connected with this place and was able to find myself again! Being able to be there is one of the best parts of my day and week and it helps me enjoy everything else in my life even more. I have so much love and gratitude for the Studio and everyone there💚🙏

A spiritually informed yoga studio like this is top tier. I attended a yin and sound healing class in the AM. Incense, a card pull to meditate on and mind, body, soul healing was exactly what I was looking for to start my week off right. Throughout the studio are racks with yoga gear for sale as well as essential oil blends and metaphysical goodies. During our session, we had the pleasure of enjoying some aromatherapy blended by the owner herself while she was in Utah. Needless to say, the experience I had here was fantastic.

i have been going to yoga with shawna for around 5 years now. I have gonna for reiki , sound healing and classes on crystals and learning about essential oils . Shawna is a warm inviting soul whose heart is in it for her studio and everyone who comes to her studio. if you have not tried any holistic healing modalities . I recommend checking out her studio especially her group sessions for reiki. she’s also does individual sessions as well. she has yoga classes and so much more. This year i’d like to attend more yoga classes at her studio!

💖🌟 Heartfelt Yoga Experience Alert! 🌟💖
Breathe in love, breathe out gratitude - that's how I felt at Shawna's Chakra Spa event! I took this class from her just before the San Diego Yoga Festival, the place was super accessible with ample parking - a fantastic start!
From the get-go, Shawna's radiant welcome made us feel like home. Those three hours? Utterly transformative, beautifully reflective, and so grounding. Despite being fairly new to the world of Yoga, I felt embraced and guided with kindness. It's evident Shawna is both organized with a clear plan and intuitive, adapting to the class's energy and flow.
Every corner, from the aesthetically pleasing merchandise to the pristine restroom, spoke volumes of love and meticulous attention to detail. The ambiance, the decor, the entire journey was meticulously crafted, embodying warmth in every nuance.
If only distance wasn't a barrier, I'd be back TOMORROW for another session with Shawna.
Endless thanks, Shawna, for sharing your magical gift with us. Sending love and light from a couple of states away! 🙏🌸💫

I attended a yoga session there and it was an amazing experience. The studio is earthy and calm environment. Open floor plan and many classes and programs to choose from. She has many beautiful products and apparel for purchase. Also, a great set of members to converse with and join other activities outside of the studio. It's in a great location and has ample parking available as well.

I felt successful in the first class I took, and I was struggling with multiple pain points in my body and hadn't done yoga in many years. I feel successful every time I attend. I went three days a week with packages and started feeling so much better mentally and physically that I wondered what would happen if I went every day. I joined the membership program and started coming every day. The answer to what would happen if I came every day is I look toned, have become happy with my body, sleep better, and happier in general and am gradually gaining flexibility everywhere. I'm more in touch with how I move and have stopped moving in weird ways that cause injury, 😅. And I'm having fun while I take care of myself. It's not just a studio, it's a personal journey towards wellness.

The Yoga with Shawna Studio is a gem of serenity and sanity in the midst of the chaos of everyday life in the San Diego Area. For the past two years I have attended her Yoga Classes and enjoyed the variety of offerings: Yoga for Strength, Flexibility, Aromatherapy Meditation, Power, Sweat, Yin and Peace and Relaxation. There are also Sound Healing and Reiki Sessions.
Shawna is my favorite, but all of her personally trained instructors are excellent. She also offers Yoga Retreats in the Desert, which I recently attended. If you are looking for a magical experience, this is not to be missed. With the peacefulness of the grounds, the gathering of other like-minded retreaters, the yoga classes, stargazing, and an unforgettable trip to nearby Joshua Tree National Park, you will come away a changed human being.

I’ve been going to Yoga With Shawna since 2019, and it’s by far the best yoga studio I’ve ever been to (and I’ve been practicing yoga since 2008).
Shawna is a wonderful instructor, and she offers a wide variety of yoga classes. Whether you’re a beginner or advanced yoga practitioner, whether you’re interested in becoming a certified instructor or just focusing on your own practice, whether you prefer a slow and gentle flow like yin yoga or a more sweaty class like vinyasa, or whether you prefer meditation and sound healing, there’s something for everyone here.
Shawna also offers Reiki training and sessions, even for your pets! I brought one of my dogs in for a Reiki session, and she loved it!
I would highly recommend Yoga With Shawna. Namaste!

Shawna's yoga studio is a sanctuary and the space she creates is profoundly healing, as well as the community she nurtures across a beautiful variety of classes and experiential offerings from yoga to meditation to sound healing to reiki to book club and tarot services. I love the fertile and sensory-rich way Shawna's yoga classes combine yoga, oracle cards, and essential oils, and the positive, life-affirming vibe.
Given that the yoga and reiki teacher trainings Shawna teaches are offered on an ongoing basis, and those teachers come teach us too, we get to experience a variety of wonderful teachers and their styles. All of this combined is honestly pure love in action. I also love that I can purchase essential oils, scrubs, candles, socks, books, crystals, clothing and more in studio. Thank you Shawna, for finding a way to persevere through the pandemic. It is beautiful to see the studio thriving and going strong.

I try and attend every yoga for relaxation and stretching class with Shawna that I can possibly get to. The difference I can feel in my health and well being is huge! I feel like I’ve come from a massage after attending class- yet I have a much longer lived massage feeling and this is so much cheaper! There are classes for all sorts of yoga styles and activities. I feel very lucky to be able to attend them regularly. If you are in the area and want to pamper yourself or just need to stretch and relax, definitely come by the studio for a class. It is a welcoming environment that feels like a safe space.

This little studio saved my life in 2019/2020. I started attending the outdoor beach classes that were offered at the time in Imperial Beach. It was a time in my life when I felt despondent and broken and was in desperate need for a new beginning. From the first class I took with Shawna, I instantly felt a part of a community and able to be my authentic self. The classes are accessible for beginners, as well as engaging for long time practicing yogis. You can attend yoga classes anywhere, but what is special about Shawna is the meaningful, genuine, and relatable insight she provides in her classes. Even if you don't attend yoga for spiritual nourishment, you will leave feeling better than you arrived. Fast forward to now-- she has cultivated a remarkably comfortable and inviting new studio space filled with plants, wellness offerings, and retail for the conscious minded. It's apparent that her vision is community oriented, as we desperately need a healing center like this in IB.
