Frequently Asked Questions
How is the Immersion and Training at Shakti different from other studios?
- Classes are smaller, with lots of personal attention.
- There are weekly readings, contemplation, group practice and quests. Our training immediately and consistently engages your mind, body andheart in class, as well as at home inyour daily life.
- You begin to practice teaching general form and find common misalignmentsby the third weekend.
- You get to practice teach three 60-minute well-rounded theme-enhanced classes (including your Final Teach with REAL students!).
Why take a training with Deb and Amba?
- Together we have over 40 years of experience.
- We come from different traditions, and so offer a wide range of style combinations. (Amba - Sivananda, Ashtanga and Iyengar. Debbie - Kripalu, Siddha Yogaand Anusara.)
- We have different teaching strengths, yet both teach alignment based yoga with a strong foundation in yogic philosophy. (Tantra, Vedanta and Classical philosophy are embraced.)
- We believe our example inspires teachers to keep exploring their own true path, and trust that what they are passionate about is their guiding light.

Comments and Quotes
"The mediocre teacher tells. The good teacher explains.
The superior teacher demonstrates. The great teacher inspires."
~ William Arthur Ward
“This class is a gift even for the non-aspiring teacher. It offers deep instruction in asanas from amazing instructors, as well as exposure to many of the other rich aspects of yoga, from the chakras to meditation, ayurveda to the yoga sutras. It’s perfect for both the would-be teacher and for the student who wants to dive deeper into her/his yoga practice. Go ahead: Do it!” Margy, 2012
"From the ashram to the modern yoga studio - a top notch yoga teacher training right in your community. Study asana practice and scripture with teachers that are deeply rooted in a variety of yoga traditions. Thank you for all your hard work, inspiration, infinite patience, and true devotion to this process. You are a great team and I wish you continued success in providing training to many more yoga teachers!" Dorit, 2012
"Have you done 5 amazing things before breakfast? If not, a yoga intensive with Debbie and Anna is just the thing for you. You will probably forget to have breakfast ever again." Virginia, 2011
“The YTT program at SHAKTIBODY exceeded every expectation I had! The serendipitous road I travelled to this YTT program led me to EXACTLY where I needed to be. Deb and Anna offer exceptional experience and guidance on your path to a deeper practice and preparation to share your passion with others.”
Anne, 2010
“SHAKTIBODY teacher training is an ideal way to become certified for people that appreciate a smaller class size and a personal relationship with their instructors. Debbie and Anna made themselves available and approachable to us in every way and they clearly have a light inside of them they wish to pass on. The well-rounded course matter also left me feeling very prepared and excited to share who I am as a teacher and what I’ve learned with the students who will be brought my way.” Valerie, 2010
