"Love this studio! I’ve taken classes with each of the teachers, and every single time I’m amazed by the creativity they bring to their flows. The classes are always engaging and challenging in the best ways.
It’s clear how much care the owner, Shannon, puts into creating a welcoming and inspiring space. She’s deeply invested in both her students and her teachers, which keeps me coming back multiple times a week. Truly the loveliest studio to practice in!"

"Salute the Sun is a beautiful yoga studio filled with even more beautiful humans! It’s easy to feel welcomed here with the gregarious teachers and positive atmosphere. I have thoroughly enjoyed every class I’ve taken— from vinyasa to yin. If you’re looking for a yoga home, this is it!"
"This is super out of the blue but I wanted to reach out to you all and thank you for being a wonderful group of yoga teachers. I lived in Charlottesville for 9 years before moving to San Francisco a few months ago. Before moving, I regularly attended classes at Salute The Sun. Every class I took at STS brought me so much joy and comfort. Your teachers always made me feel so safe, had so much passion for the practice of yoga, and were incredibly warm and friendly. You all also have an amazing way of incorporating moments of reflection and gratitude into the practice that really helped me let go of stress. I remember literally crying tears of joy on a few occasions listening to a STS teacher’s inspiring words."
"I wanted to thank you so much again for everything that you do through Salute the Sun. I started coming during my second semester of law school, and the studio and the community truly changed my trajectory here in Cville. I am incredibly grateful."
"The studio has been truly one of my favorite parts of Charlottesville and it really helped me through law school. I’m so sad to be moving away but I’ll come back any chance that I get! Thank you for being such a ray of sunlight and for fostering such an amazing, welcoming environment!"
"Shannon has created the most yogi friendly studio. She says hello to you when you walk in by name, she comes by during the practice and personally assists you, and she is super fun! Her classes are challenging but she offers what is needed for each individual with respect and love! I feel lucky to be a part of her studio and am happy her community is growing with such care to the practice and the participants!"
"I love this studio so much. It's warm (literally and figuratively) and welcoming. The staff are fantastic and kind and creative. Shannon will meet you once and remember your name; I've never met anyone who is more accurately described as "lighting up a room" - her energy is incredible. Definitely worth checking out !"
