The Loft Collaborative

🤎 Get to know Shelby 💫

✨How did you get into teaching?

I started my teacher journey through breathwork. I have always had a passion for the mind body connection & how our body holds our emotions, imprinting & experiences. This lead me to become a qualified breathwork instructor to find supportive ways to move through our experiences & traumas & then more recently I became a Pilates instructor which I also teach at TLC.

✨What has becoming an instructor done for you?

So much! Becoming a teacher has given me such a purpose & a new passion for wellness modalities & teaching more people how to navigate emotions & experiences. I feel so grateful each day that I get to connect with so many beautiful people. On a personal level, teaching has created so much self trust, confidence & really helped me to grow.

✨If you had every morning to yourself, how would you start your day?

Slow & intentional. I would love to watch the sunrise at the beach with a coffee (always starting with a yummy coffee), journal & connect with myself & finish with some intuitive movement (sounds perfect!)

✨What’s something that keeps you grounded?

Coming back to the breath of course! I love that we have this beautiful tool that lives inside of us & that we can access at anytime. All it takes is a three part breath, fill up the belly, lungs, chest, open mouth exhale & everything starts to move a little slower & feels less overwhelming

✨Zodiac sign?

Gemini! (Pls don’t judge 🤪)
