THE SANCTUARY
About the Studio
The Sanctuary is located in the heart of Edison Park. Upon entering you will feel the energy of this sacred space. Whether you are there to energize your body or soothe your soul, your state of mind will be elevated.
​
I decided to embark on this journey after ten years of teaching. Yoga has changed my life in so many ways and I want to guide my students to see how connecting your body, mind, and breath can really alter your mindset. In addition to the wonderful array of classes I am offering monthly New Moon Circles. These meditation offerings will really connect you with your intuition and show you how a New Moon can help you manifest anything you put your mind to. To compliment the yoga practice, I wanted to also offer my very favorite things, such as crystals, incense and candles. You will find a selection of items unique to The Sanctuary and I hope you love them as much as I do.
​
Welcome to The Sanctuary. I invite you to enter, tune in, and zen out.

NATASHA
Meet The Sanctuary Squad
Natasha
Natasha is the founder of The Sanctuary. She became certified at Moksha Yoga Center in Chicago in 2010 and has been teaching ever since. She left the finance world behind to become a yoga instructor because she wanted to show people the wonderful benefits of the asana practice. From vinyasa to yin, yoga is about community and coming together to breathe and move but also being with your own thoughts and headspace on your mat. Yoga teaches you to live and breathe in the present and nothing else matters beyond this moment. Yoga is about letting go and the space and energy at The Sanctuary is about unrolling your mat or your silk to tune in and zen out and see what unfolds.
Haley
Haley grew up the suburbs of Chicago where she danced from an early age. After high school, she moved to North Carolina to pursue a degree in Dance. During her four years there she developed a dedicated, daily hot vinyasa practice at a local studio. This is truly where her passion for yoga depend. Upon graduating, Haley danced and performed nationally and internationally and then decided to move back home to Chicago. Haley has danced with professional dance companies such as Michael Mao Dance Company in NYC, Project Bound Dance in Chicago, and Aerial Dance Chicago where she received rigorous aerial silks training. She fell in love with the extreme physical challenge so she decided to get certified in Aerial Yoga. She received her teacher training with Light On Yoga Fitness in Huntsville, Alabama.
​
In all of Haley's classes she loves to combine strength and flexibility in order to create and enhance mind-body awareness and improve performance on and off the mat. She believes yoga truly is for EVERY BODY. She hopes to challenge you in class but ultimately give you a space where you feel supported and safe and can quiet your mind.
​
Haley is SO excited and grateful to be sharing her aerial experience teaching at The Sanctuary among other amazing teachers.
