Sierra Shanti Virtual Studio offers Yoga, Tai Chi & Wellness Workshops from the beautiful heart of Bishop, CA. Our mission is to create a ripple effect of self love through self care. The owner, Lauren Robinson, transformed her life, and healed herself through holistic therapies after a major "gut wrenching" 4-year gut health battle.
Western medicine failed her because it failed to work on the root issue. All of the healing modalities at Sierra Shanti focus on the root and inspire hope. Sierra Shanti Virtual Studio is the container in which that sweet seed of change is planted. We are here to not only touch lives locally here in Bishop, but to inspire others globally.

I was introduced to Reiki over 20 years ago to assist in healing my anxiety, depression, and an eating disorder. After a session, I always felt a sense of joy and rejuvenation which lasted weeks after a treatment. As life moved forward, I chose a career in the Hospitality Industry where I was able to enhance my education in nutrition and diet.

I recently started attending their classes virtually and I gotta say its been a great experience. Having a membership motivates me to do the workouts and they have a good variety of classes to choose from. Cant wait till we can do indoor classes again! But they have done a good job of keeping things going virtually.

I have taken classes at various yoga studios in Bishop and I have definitely enjoyed the classes at Sierra Shanti the best. They offer an incredible variety of types and levels of classes and events that that go beyond simply yoga. Lauren, the owner and one of the instructors is so dedicated and encouraging. She has worked really hard to create a community space that welcomes all no matter what your level, skill or interest. I have been so impressed with how she has maintained this space throughout the difficult pandemic times. It clearly is reflective of her dedication to, love of and vision for

There are times in my life where I have experienced true bliss. Knowing Lauren and her passions and getting to hold space with her on different occasions, seeing her manifest her passions into her own studio, Sierra Shanti, and then subsequently being able hold space therein was one of those times. Lauren/Sierra Shanti - You are a special being/place in the universe. Keep sending out your vibes and may all who read this review indeed be...Led By Love. Sending you many blessings and much love.

A world-class yoga studio with a big heart right in Bishop! I've been practicing yoga for 15 years and have taken hundreds of classes all over the county. Imagine my surprise to find such an incredible studio in little Bishop, California. Wonderful, inspired yoga classes in Shiva Rea's Prana Vinyasa tradition with a focus on both physical and energetic alignment. I attended Tiffany's $5 community class on Sunday, then Meredith's Tuesday and Wednesday classes. Classes are reasonably priced and the weekly and monthly passes are a steal. Do yourself a favor and get a little yoga in while you're here

I was on vacation with my family and wanted to continue my practice while away from my home studio. It is an intimate atmosphere with a talented substitute teacher which I can't recall her name. If the quality of their subs are this high, I can only imagine the talent the regular staff most. If your in bishop looking to continue your practice, give this place a chance.
