Saniehyoga.com was
designed as a labor of love to embrace the already existing yoga
community, reach out to those searching, and encourage the spread of
“living yoga” everywhere worldwide without demographic challenges. Its
life was envisioned and came to form and fruition out of the undying
love, practice, passion and teachings that found their place into
Creator and Creative Director, Sanieh’s heart. First truly discovering
and becoming a committed student of the ancient discipline while
living on the healing Big Island of Hawaii, Sanieh began to feel the
evolutionary shift of yoga manifesting itself into her sva-dharma,
destiny or life path, and took the step of reaching out and adding to
the quality of other’s lives through the teachings she's been able to
incorporate into her personal practice both on and off the mat.

The Buzz; Read what some
of Sanieh's students are saying...(under construction/ in progress)
Sanieh,
I attended your 6 pm class last night. As I was walking out
after class, I commented to my friend that attending your classes is
my
way of attending church. Your classes not only challenge me
physically,
but emotionally and spiritually. You motivate me to attend to my
dark
corners, my silent fears, my selfish nature. You rearrange my
comfort
zone!
Your message about connecting with others, especially those that are
less
fortunate was very special as well as apropos for the season. I
walked out
feeling lighter and kinder. Kinder to others and kinder to my Self.
Thank
you for being a Teacher in every sense. :-)
Namaste!

I just want to say that I ALWAYS appreciate your classes. My
practice began two
years ago (I liked the physical benefits) but has since evolved
to so
much more- a mental, emotional and spiritual practice. Largely
thanks
to your guidance, kindness, commitment, teaching, leadership and
love.
Thanks for bringing peace, insight and balance to my life! I am
appreciating my 'time on the mat' more and more each time I come
to
class.

Sanieh,
You always seem to know what I need to hear and when I need to
hear it! A
few times, your words have touched me so much it has made me
emotional
after class! Thank you for that. You are an essential part of
how yoga
has been changing my life in the past few months.

Sanieh,
I Love your yoga classes with lots of organic moments & fluidity
and on top of that your musical voice. This reminds me of being
in a
temple in India!!!!!
Namaste,

"I always look forward to attending
your classes because I know I will
be comfortably challenged! You are a luminary and an enabler.
There are
some asanas that I didn't think I could do, but you take on the
task of
prepping us, encouraging us, inspiring us, and challenging us.
Thank you
for helping me grow in my yoga practice. Really, what I mean to
say is, You kick ass!"

budding yoga teacher
"I remember first going to Sanieh's
class and I could barely touch my toes and by the end of the
first couple of months not only could I touch my toes but I
learned to bend my body in way I didn't know where possilble.
She does a great job a teaching poses but also pose alignment,
body awareness, and even correct sanskrit pronunciation. There
is just something more pure about saying adho mukha svanasana
than downward dog. Anyone that has had the pleasure of taking
one of her classes should consider themselves truly blessed."

Sanieh,
Thank you so much for the wonderful workshop. Each day
the workshop gets better and better. I have spent nearly every
Saturday for the last
eight years cycling with my friends between 50-80 miles. You were
exactly what I needed for of my Saturday! It was as if the
universe heard my plea for help. Thank you, thank you! It
helped more than you know. It was truly was a wonderful experience!
I look forward to seeing you the next time you are
in Nashville, TN.

Sanieh,
This is Tracy from your Saturday Yoga Yoga class. Just wanted to
let you know that I always really appreciate your classes! No
matter what
had happened during the week in my yoga practice, attending your
class on
the weekend always humbles me and brings me back down to earth!!
I'm
always inspired by your teaching!

Sanieh,
Thank you so much for visiting us in Nashville, your workshop was
kickass!
I've had so many of my students express how lovely they thought you
were and how
much you impacted their practice. I feel the same way. I teach a lot
and sometimes
feel like I lost my spark and now I feel "sparky" again. Also thanks for being
a
kind spirit.Anyways, it was awesome. Blessings and Peace

Hi Sanieh-
I wanted to thank you, again for the wonderful backbends/ heart
opening workshop. I
reached the "comfortable challenge" very early on in the workshop,
but I feel so
much better for it. It is fabulous to see what you have accomplished
since I saw you last! Congratulations on the liberation you have
achieved !

Hi Sanieh,
I wanted to thank you very much for Wednesday's class. I wasn't
quite sure I was going to make it though class...it was challenging
and at the same time fantastic! Some how I did make it and all day
long I have had an amazing amount of energy running through me.
It's invigorating! Thank you also for being you. You have a
presence that lifts me up, especially on days when I need it most.
I'm so fortunate to be able to come to my mat and have you lead me
through class. Thank you, thank you!
best,
Emily

Hi Sanieh, so glad to reconnect with you and receive
the gift of your teaching this past weekend. Even
though I was only able to attend 2 of the sessions, I
felt like I absorbed so much great knowledge and was
really able to drop in to hear what you had to say.
Thank you, and hopefully our paths will come together
again.
peace&love,
