Welcome to The Yoga Shack! Our studio was born out of a shared dream between best friends Michelle & Cindy, who envisioned a place where everyone could feel at home, embraced by a true sense of community. Our welcoming, inclusive environment is where everyone—from seasoned yogis to first-timers—can come as they are. Here, it’s not about competition; it’s about personal growth, shared laughter, and supporting each other on and off the mat. We’re a family in every sense, and we can’t wait for you to be a part of it.

Michelle is a 500hr Certified Yoga Instructor and Reiki Master. After a few years of working as a Radiation Therapist at NYU, she started her yoga journey- looking for a way to clear her mind, and instantly fell in love with the practice. She loves adventures, music, the gym, the beach, surfing, spicy food and being barefoot.

Michelle has Certifications in Vinyasa Flow, Primal Flow, Yin, Restorative, Stand Up Paddle board Yoga, BUTI, Crystals & Sound Healing & Karma Kids Yoga. She has also completed trainings with United we Om, Bryan Kest and Rodney Yee. Her creative playlists compliment her upbeat, laid back, friendly, positive attitude. You are sure to get a class that will make you feel safe, welcome, and relaxed. She is certainly not afraid to live life and run head first into any opportunity. Her motto is “jump and the net will appear.” Michelle has learned to stay present by letting go, optimistic by never giving up, and the importance to share these values with her students. Favorite Role Models: Mister Rogers, Bob Marley, Anais Nin and Mother Teresa
