A year ago I decided to explore Yoga but with a more meditative approach with whole body-type stretches. I only found a couple of yoga studios which offered this type of yoga. But I was attracted to Namaskar Studio and specifically Shana Marie Stitzel. I tried her Mindful and Restorative classes and this was exactly what I had been looking for. For almost a year now I have been a loyal student benefitting from her unique style where she connects with the class participants and decides what they need that day; no class is the same, as a result, which is so wonderful and beneficial. She has now created her own yoga studio in Evanston – Central Street Yoga.Shana is an exceptional person. She has a gift, a 6th sense, for connecting with people’s energy and needs --- she modifies the positions and movements according to what she feels from the class. She has such a positive energy and she connects with you in a way which makes you feel that you’re special (as we really are). As a result I looked forward to participating in her classes and have made yoga a regular part of my life. I have been enriched by her knowledge and love of yoga and helping others. She has been an integral part of my spiritual journey and I will always be indebted to her positive energy, light and love!Shana has an inner radiance and a smile that glows from deep within her heart. Yoga is the conduit through which she shares her love for others and her deep desire to help them help themselves to live healthier & happier lives. I have a term which I use after my yoga practice with her (which she laughs at) – I tell her that I’ve been “Shana-ized”!!! I feel connected to my inner self, relaxed and at peace.Thank you Shana!!

Shana is such an incredible yoga teacher. I am pretty new to yoga and even when the class has 20 people in it, I still feel like she's giving me as much attention as she is to everyone else.She is constantly reminding us to just breathe and not push or force anything, which oddly enough is a wake up call every time she says it. Funny how easy it is to forget to breathe...Her classes are very peaceful, and although they will work up to some pretty challenging things in the middle of class, they always well balanced and well sequenced. I feel like I am doing way more than just stretching and building strength. It feels like we are working with some kind of universal guru for peace and creativity with Shana.I don't see how she is able to care for so many people at once, but it really seems like everyone feels her support and attention in every class.I can't wait to take classes at her brand new studio!!
