About the instructor, Tina Shettigara

Tina Shettigara is Director of Yoga Spirit Studios, Level 2 Registered Yoga Teacher with Yoga Australia, Level 2 Hanna Somatics Exercise Coach and IRI Certified iRest Yoga Nidra teacher®. She has completed Adavnced Teacher Training with acclaimed yoga teacher Donna Farhi and assists her at yoga intensives. Tina regards Donna Farhi as her yogasana teacher and iRest creator, Richard Miller, as her meditation teacher.

Tina has a long and deep knowledge of yoga and the ancient philosophical thought that underpins it which she has been studying for over forty years.

In addition to teaching weekly classes in yoga, somatics and iRest® at Yoga Spirit Studios she has also taught Yogic Physiology (energetic systems), Pranayama and Philosophy to trainee teachers. She has co-taught yoga and somatics with her husband in India. Tina has expertise in the therapeutic setting of supporting people to find their own inner peace through private iRest dyad consultations, a co-meditation in which, as a facilitator, she holds the student deep in their meditation, making it a very powerful integrative practice.

Tina felt a genuine coming home when she encountered the iRest teachings of Richard Miller and has been teaching iRest since 2013. She has since shared the precious practice with hundreds of people, helping them to find their own equanimity and peace. She also assists in training new teachers at official iRest training program

In teaching the practice of iRest meditation in all its forms, Tina is alight with passion and conviction and has a power to bring the student with her into deeper states of integration. She has a sound intellectual grasp of the philosophy that underpins the teachings but more importantly she has walked the path and has embodied the process.
