Sheldon is one of Toronto’s most in demand instructors. A natural born athlete, Sheldon came to the practice with a rebellious and playful energy. With a passion for cycling and a childhood of competitive gymnastics, Sheldon was immediately drawn to the powerful Ashtanga yoga method and began a committed practice in 2007. Ashtanga’s rhythmic breathing, challenging vinyasa and meditative quality had a powerful effect on Sheldon and the daily practice led him face to face with himself; a profound journey within.

In addition to leading group classes, Sheldon provides one on one sessions to students of all ages. Sheldon is an E-RYT 500 with Yoga Alliance, and a core faculty member of the Downward Dog Yoga Centre 200 hour Vinyasa teacher training.
