Sharyn Galindo, is the owner of North Shore Yoga/True North Yoga & Wellness. She began her studies in yoga, breath, and meditation back in the 1990s and with an entrepreneurial spirit, opened up one of the first mind body fitness studios in 1996, which grew to three locations. She has spent much time back and forth to India and Thailand to further her studies, often with her family in tow. She runs her own 200 hour and 300-hour teacher training courses, holds a Masters in Holistic Nutrition and a certificate as a Clinical Ayurvedic Specialist (CAS) from both the California College of Ayurveda and the American Institute of Vedic Studies.
