Where do I start? I love this studio! I had been searching for that special studio that felt like home for quite some time when I walked into Still Water Yoga & Wellness Studio for the first time. I can absolutely say, beyond the shadow of a doubt, that I found it here, I feel SO at home here at Still Water! Shannon, the owner, is one of the best instructors I have ever taken a class with, and the amazing part is, that ALL of her instructors are amazing! Since she is a certified teacher trainer and certifies a lot of her teachers herself, there is an incredible amount of consistency at Still Water, no matter whose class you are taking that day. The dictation is so clear, and we are always given three levels to stop at, so we can practice at our own level, push ourselves if we want to, take it easy if that's what our body or soul needs that day, and there is never any judgement or criticism, only encouragement, positive vibes, and genuine love for every single person in the room, breathing together as one. I just got back from a retreat in Greece too, which Shannon herself ran from start to finish. It was AMAZING, I don't even know how to describe the high I'm on right now! We just got home (hubby and I went together), and I want to go back already, lol. Seriously though, the friendships and memories we made will last a lifetime, and I will never forget the moments we had laughing, crying (good tears), and practicing yoga in one of the most beautiful settings I've ever seen together. If you're looking for something more than just a place to take a yoga class here and there, give Still Water a shot. This is not just any yoga studio, it's a yoga FAMILY, and you will be welcomed with open arms the moment you walk through the door, even if it's your very first time. We are lifer's, and we can't wait for the next retreat. Thank you for the wonderful community you've built, Shannon, we are forever changed for the better! read more

An absolute gem of a yoga studio in South Lake Tahoe! After doing a lot of research on local yoga studios in the area for myself, as well as the fitness & wellness retreat my husband and I run at Lake Tahoe, I was really impressed by this studio and the instructors' bios on their website. Shannon's bio in particular struck me, as I am a big fan of some of the yogis she has trained under and trained with. I reached out to her via email and got a quick response back. Right off the bat, she was very gracious and welcoming. A week or two later, my husband and I brought a small group (6 of us total) to practice yoga with Shannon at her Weekend Warrior class on a recent Sunday, and we all had a wonderful, blissful experience! Shannon is just as lovely and welcoming in person as she was through our correspondences via email. The Sunday class we took was the perfect blend of a challenging, invigorating, centering, calming, and inspiring Vinyasa class that I was looking for. Even the Savasana at the end of class was wonderful with all the extra attention to detail, head/shoulder mini massage, and the darkening of the room to create an extra tranquil, meditative environment for us. Thank you so much, Shannon and Still Water Yoga! We will be back soon to your beautiful studio, and definitely bring our next group over to share in this awesome experience! read more

Still Water Yoga & Wellness - Bright, spacious & clean studio! - Yoga Near Me - Bend, Oregon

This is a beautiful new space to practice yoga. I'm so excited to have yoga on the East side of town. I can't wait to see new and exciting things come from here. The yoga in Ponderosa Park was really cool plus they have so many classes on the schedule already, they even have early morning yoga for those who work in Bend!;). read more

Amazing yoga studio! The space is huge with large windows. They have a variety of classes and experienced teachers. I definitely recommend yoga with Stillwater! read more

We had Shannon for our session and we could not have asked for a better instructor! The environment was so calming and inviting! I am pregnant and she made me feel so relaxed and comfortable throughout the whole session even though I wasn't able to do most of the positions. I highly suggest coming here and specifically to see Shannon! read more

Shannon led an awesome class, the yin class is perfect for an end of the day stretch and relaxation. Definitely worth checking out if you're in the Tahoe area read more

A hidden gem! This is a lovely studio with amazing instructors. Shannon has a gift of cueing the poses and flows so regardless your level, you have the best possible practice when you are there. The instructors are knowledgeable in yoga and kinesiology. I came in with a tendon injury and was offered ways to modify my practice to allow myself to heal while continuing to practice yoga. read more

This studio has as a healing energy about it, teachers are intentional, welcoming, and support each student following their own journey. I have loved every teacher so far, this studio is about so much more than just yoga poses, this is a healing space to come connect to yourself spiritually, physically, emotionally, and more. read more

Wonderful class for all levels of experience. I highly recommend Still Water Yoga for a normal class or a private group session. My friends and I had the privilege of being a part of a private class on the beach in South Lake. It was amazing. Thanks Shannon, you're the best! read more

Still Water Yoga is an amazing yoga studio that creates a space of community, connections, and of course amazing yoga classes! The studio is the perfect size. It's a very calming and tranquil space but is energized by the beautiful teachers who share their passion with others. I love the instructors at this studio and the wide variety of classes offered! Definitely one of a kind and a must visit studio ‍ read more

What a gem. Shannon has done a great job with the physical space--it is clean, well lit and very welcoming. The prices are very reasonable and you can book through the Mind-Body app without too much fuss. What I enjoyed the most about our yoga practice at Still Water Yoga was that Shannon was able to provide different variations for each poses to accommodate all levels. Her music is complimentary to her practice and is unobtrusive. I highly recommend the weekend classes as they are not too early in the morning, but early enough where you have the rest of the day. Can't wait to return. read more

This is my absolute favorite studio in Tahoe. It is a beautiful space with a variety of instructors and instruction styles. Modifications are routinely emphasized and taught which is great for novice or erratic (me!) practitioners. You can sign up for a class with the MINDBODY app or drop in... but "drop-ins"be warned many classes are popular with the locals and can be quite full. It's worth the trouble to sign up! If you're visiting Tahoe, proprietor Shannon, has equipment available for you to use and if you're local she can offer you an amazing combo deal with a local gym. read more

I love this studio! All of the instructors are awesome, especially Shannon! She is so talented and such an inspiration. This studio is clean, peaceful and in a great location. read more

I recently moved from South Lake Tahoe and love the new yoga studio that I joined, however, I don't think that I will ever find better teachers than the ones at Still Water Yoga. Shannon has assembled an amazing team that manages to balance experience with fun in each class. Susan and Liz leading the morning classes are amazing and I want to someday join one of their yoga relief trips. Shannon is perhaps the best yoga teacher I have ever had or will ever have. Not only that, but she is an incredibly welcoming and generous of spirit. If you are considering joining a yoga studio in South Lake, you will not regret joining Still Water. read more

I have done classes with Shannon for two separate bachelorette parties and they were both so fun! She does a fantastic job of reading the people in her class to make sure that everyone feels comfortable. She also provides adaptations for the different parts of the class for people to feel more challenged, or take it easier because of an injury/just wanting to adapt. I'd definitely recommend doing a class with Shannon if you're in the area. read more

I was in town visiting and took the Sunday class and loved it! Great studio! Quite small but it wasn't crowded. it was a very satisfying practice and I'm glad I tried this place out.. Good vibes all around! read more

My favorite studio anywhere in the world. Shannon (the owner and primary teacher) is incredibly talented and specializes in catering even the most challenging classes to all levels. The studio and fellow yogis are warm and welcoming. Whether you are a local or visiting yogi, do yourself a favor and pop in for a class at this world-class studio. read more

I absolutely love this studio and the community that studio owner Shannon has cultivated! The vibe is down-to-earth, cozy, and focused on the yoga. Classes are predominantly vinyasa flow style; some are more strength-based than others. The yin classes on Mondays and Fridays are also amazingly restorative. In July of 2019, I graduated from Shannon's 200 YTT course, which I also highly recommend. If you're local and you haven't dropped by yet... what are you waiting for?! read more

Great studio and all levels of yoga! Shannon is a phenomenal instructor. Check this place out if you have not already you won't be sorry!

This studio is so perfect. I brought three friends all with a different level of practice and we all got what we needed. The owner is very lovely and teaches so well. The studio is beautiful and welcoming. I can't wait to come back to Tahoe and do some yoga at Still Water. read more

Going to a 10am yoga class one morning here with a friend was a great way to spend part of our time in Tahoe. Andrea, the instructor was great and she had such a calm and soothing voice. The studio was nice and clean. My friend and I left feeling refreshed and relaxed. read more

Great yoga studio! Shannon is an excellent teacher. I leave class feeling relaxed and happier. The studio is peaceful and the teachers are supportive and unpretentious. I really liked the variations for poses so that people who are new to yoga, like me, feel welcome. I'll be back! read more

I can't even express how grateful I am to have found this studio. I am a Tahoe local and have been practicing yoga for a few years, but when I found Stillwater my ability level skyrocketed. I never thought I would be able to do arm balances and now I can! Well, some of them, haha. I love Shannon's classes because they are playful and she gives three levels of modifications for every pose, so if you are brand new to yoga you will feel comfortable and welcomed but if you're advanced and really want your butt kicked you can have that experience too, it's your choice! I also love the diversity you can find at Stillwater. I've had an absolutely wonderful experience with every instructor I've taken a class from. They offer restorative classes, SUP yoga, hiking and yoga, happy hour yoga, yoga & beer, alignment workshops, arm balance workshops, meditation workshops, and other creative classes so you really can't get bored. Everyone is extremely kind, prices are super reasonable, and the instructors at this studio will help you become the best version of yourself you can be. I'm so happy I found my new happy place. Give it a shot, you won't regret it! read more

Did my first handstand today after trying for 3 months doing yoga in nyc with no success ! Shannon is awesome and a great teacher. Wish I lived here so I could come all the time. The classroom was also really nice , pretty and serene so that was an extra plus for me! read more

Great yoga experience! The studio owner taught the class both times that we went. Nice, clean facility and very reasonable price for a drop-in class. read more

First time here today, it was a great class and easy location. Will definitely be back!

I recently visited the S. Tahoe area and went looking for a yoga studio. I found Still Water Yoga near my time share on KIngsberry Grade. Susan, the fabulous instructor was excellent. I truly enjoyed the energy of her class, her personalized instruction and intentional routine. I will return whenever I am in the area. The owner Shannon has done a fabulous job creating a truly beautiful and serene atmosphere with wonder lighting, colors and the softest fabrics (on the bolsters). I felt welcome, thank you. read more

I just had an amazing yoga class @ Still Water Yoga. Everyone was so lovely and welcoming. Thank you for kindness. You made my day.

After only having taken two classes from Shannon, she announced she was opening up her own studio. I had yet to find a studio, and teacher, that I really connected to since moving to the South Shore a few years ago. I gave Still Water Yoga a shot, and have been practicing consistently there now for over a year. Shannon is a great teacher, and I have been able to conquer poses, specifically arm balances, that I never even knew were possible! She always offers modifications to poses, and the sequences of poses are clearly thought out and the music is not overpowering during the class and compliments the classes very well. The space itself is inviting and relaxing, there are a variety of teachers and different yoga styles, meditation and restorative classes, monthly workshops, outdoor classes and even happy hour yoga classes (a great way to get your husbands/boyfriends to try yoga). Shannon is an inspiration to all that take her classes, her poses are beautiful, and my personal practice would not be as strong as it is today without her. Definitely give Still Water Yoga Lake Tahoe a try! read more
