A Path of Freedom and Practice
About
Shane Phillips's path began nearly 20 years ago in Los Angeles through intensive study with senior Iyengar teachers. These deep, long-term mentorships continue to shape his work.
In 2022, with their blessing, he moved to Paris to share his evolving approach. Now in Paris, he’s cultivated a warm, engaged community. Living and teaching in a new culture has deepened his sensitivity—balancing tradition with attunement.
From California, Shane brings a grounded and expansive presence to class—where precision meets care, and structure meets freedom. His embodied style encourages both physical intelligence and inner spaciousness.
Many students have practiced with him for years—following him between studios and into deeper study—drawn to his clarity, warmth, and rare depth of attention.
Whether you’re new or refining your path, Shane meets you where you are—and helps you grow from there.
Approach
"It is only when the correct practice is followed for a long time, without interruptions and with a quality of positive attitude and eagerness, that it can succeed."
— Patañjali
Rooted in Classical Hatha Yoga
Shane’s classes blend precision, presence, and quiet strength.
Poses are held with care and attention—creating space to observe, feel, and respond from within.
This is more than movement—it’s a practice of stillness and awareness.
Students are invited to listen deeply, meet effort with softness, and grow through sustained attention.
Drawing from the principle of sthira sukham āsanam—steadiness and ease—Shane’s teaching fosters clarity, vitality, and intelligent progression.
Over time, students build a steady, embodied practice that supports them far beyond the mat.
Specialized Group Classes
Shane offers Restorative, Rope Wall, and Inversion classes for deep integration.
These mindful formats complement active practice and are open to all.
Most students begin with group classes around Paris—then deepen through private sessions, either in person or online.
