I couldn't be happier with my experience with my yoga instructor, Shanti Samar. From the moment I stepped into her class, I was met with warmth and understanding, especially as a newcomer to yoga. Her friendly demeanor instantly put me at ease, and she was always there to offer guidance and support whenever I hesitated. What struck me the most was her inclusivity - as an Arab, I felt truly seen and understood. She took the time to explain poses in a way that resonated with me, and I appreciated her ability to effortlessly switch between languages, catering to participants who spoke English, French, and more. Living in Dubai's diverse landscape, her understanding of different cultures was evident, making everyone feel welcome in her class. Beyond the studio, her online presence on Instagram was not only entertaining but also incredibly useful, as she actively engaged with her followers and shared valuable insights. But perhaps what I admire most about Shanti is her unwavering positivity and zest for life. Her infectious spirit uplifts the entire class, and I have no doubt that she would shine wherever she goes. And, it's hard not to be inspired by her - she exudes both inner and outer beauty, motivating me to push myself further in my practice. My journey with Shanti has been nothing short of transformative, and I'm grateful to have her as my guide on this path of self-discovery.
