Nice to meet you :)

I’m Shiraz Amar — a yoga teacher, dancer and creator.

I create a gentle yoga space for women living with cancer, at every stage of treatment or recovery.

I am recovering from breast cancer, carry BRCA1 and live with endometriosis.

I have worked with the body for more than a decade through yoga, dance and somatic practices, with an emphasis on mindfulness, breath and gentle attention to movement.

Yoga was a meaningful anchor throughout treatment — a way to remain connected to the body even as it changed.

Today I accompany women through treatment and recovery with gentle practice that allows slowing down, regulation and renewed connection with the body — at its own pace.
