Shalan Hill, co-owner of The Posture Project, is a Licensed and Certified Massage Therapist (CMT & LMT) and a Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT).  Shalan began her study of yoga in 1998 and has been teaching since 2001 in the Woodstock area.  She has trained in the Hatha Yoga (traditional) style with focus on Pranayama (breathing techniques to promote energy movement and balance).  She completed her credentials and studies for her 200 hr. Yoga Alliance training.  She continues her yoga training weekly to gain more insight and options for her students.  An experienced teacher, Shalan has been focused mainly on teaching yoga to beginners. Shalan intuitively promotes a gentle style of yoga that listens to the needs of the energy of the group.  Her mission is to help you find what your body CAN do as a starting place and to utilize your breath, your inner vision, and to stretch and strengthen body, mind, and spirit. Shalan graduated from The Academy of Somatic Healing Arts (ASHA) massage school in Norcross, GA in 2000 with certificates in Neuromuscular Therapy, Sports Therapy, and Swedish Massage. She has worked with chiropractors and has experience with massage in spa and yoga settings.  She specializes in working with the subtle energies of the body through CranioSacral Therapy, Reiki, and Energy Balancing.  Shalan also excels in Myofascial Release, Postural Balancing, and pain relief.  Shalan saw the value of combining bodywork and yoga to help people achieve and maintain greater balance and health in their life and was inspired to open The Posture Project.
