Movement, breath,
and genuine care

Eve Shen

Over 20 years on
the mat

Eve has taught in large group classes and one-on-one private lessons, from youth to seniors, with a genuinely positive and light hearted energy. Over more than 10 years of teaching and 20 years of personal practice, she's led sessions at the YMCA, community centers, schools, and private homes throughout San Francisco.

Her approach supports more than movement, strength, and flexibility. Eve works with clients on emotional regulation too, so after a session you leave feeling lighter, taller, and calmer than when you walked in.

She trained in Ashtanga Vinyasa yoga, restorative yoga, breathwork, and sound healing, and teaches comfortably in both English and Mandarin Chinese. Eve also has experience supporting clients through physical and emotional recovery.

Your first session together is a conversation. Eve takes the time to understand your goals, watches how you move through a few simple poses, and shares her thoughts on how you can get where you want to go.

"She has made a huge difference in my flexibility and strength. Her attention to each posture makes a huge difference, I feel muscles I didn't even know I had."

Carrie · Private Lesson Client

"What have I been missing, restorative yoga. It feels like a spa treatment, I feel rejuvenated. The little adjustments you do with my neck and blanket, I felt an instant release."

Gretchen · Presidio Y
