Shiva Rea

Shiva Rea is an internationally respected yoga teacher and the founder of Prana Vinyasa and the Samudra Global School for Living Yoga. Her teaching is shaped by decades of dedicated practice, study, and sharing across diverse cultures and landscapes, with a deep emphasis on breath, rhythm, and the body’s natural intelligence. Drawing from the foundations of vinyasa yoga, her approach is also informed by long-term study in tantra, ayurveda, the Krishnamacharya lineage, kalaripayattu, world dance, and somatic movement.

Rather than presenting yoga as a purely physical practice, Shiva weaves movement, ritual, and awareness into a living, integrated experience. Her work invites practitioners to explore flow as a quality that can support not only the mat practice, but also the way they move through daily life. Warm, expressive, and deeply rooted, her teaching offers space for presence, connection, and embodied understanding.
