@yogishabad

Yogi Shabad is the lead teacher and trainer of classes, training and life coaching at La Yoga Barn. Shabad dedicated most of his life to finding the meaning of his life but above all the meaning of life. With over 40 years of study and yogic practice in Kundalini yoga and a personal journey dedicated to achieving mindfulness to find that meaning, he understood that discipline and practice brings a deeper experience than trying to understand it through the intellect. His process generated self-knowledge that allowed him to transcend his immediate impulses and desires to finally find inner peace.

Enriched with all this background, he shares the teachings of Kundalini yoga with integrity, honesty and humanity. His only deep desire is to help those who want to follow this path to find this same inner peace and thus to be able to manifest their respective destinies.
