Rhythmic Vinyasa
Power of Yoga, Meditation & Collective Flow
A 4-Day Prana Vinyasa Intensive with Shiva Rea 6-9 June 2026
About the intensive
Join Shiva for a 26-hour immersion into the roots of vinyasa, science of flow and power of movement meditation for vinyasa teachers and practitioners of all levels.
In Prana Flow vinyasa is a wave, a rhythmic way of life, and key to creating flow within one's body and life.
Rhythmic Prana Vinyasa is a method for highlighting the pulsation of breath and the intelligence of rhythm.
We will explore the roots of vinyasa through a progression of five pathways of transformative sequences encompassing solar-lunar rhythms, elemental balance and deeper strength, opening and integration.
This intensive can be taken as part of the Samudra School for Living Teacher Training, or as a standalone intensive with Shiva.

10 June 2026
On the day after the intensive, Shiva offers a Prana Mandala Flow masterclass. This practice explores circular movement as a form of moving meditation, inviting a full and embodied experience of flow through space. Working with mandala-based vinyasa, the practice supports vitality and creative movement while connecting the physical practice to the rhythms of daily life.
The masterclass stands on its own and also complements the intensive beautifully. You’re welcome to book this session separately or include it as part of your weekend at a reduced rate.
The Teacher
Shiva Rea
Shiva Rea is a globally renowned yoga teacher and the founder of Prana Vinyasa and the Samudra Global School for Living Yoga. Her work is rooted in a deep relationship with breath, rhythm, and the innate intelligence of the body, shaped through decades of practice, study, and teaching across cultures and landscapes worldwide.
Her teaching draws from the roots of vinyasa yoga and is informed by long-term study in tantra, Ayurveda, the Krishnamacharya lineage, kalaripayattu, world dance, and somatic movement. Through this lived integration, Shiva offers yoga as a way of life that connects movement, ritual, and awareness, inviting practitioners to experience flow as something that extends into everyday living.
Global Flow x Shiva
Shiva Rea was one of my first teachers. I began practicing with her sixteen years ago, and her work has had a lasting influence on my own path as a practitioner and teacher. Through her teaching, yoga revealed itself as a creative and embodied practice that continues far beyond the mat.
What resonates deeply at Global Flow is the way Shiva weaves embodiment and ritual into her work, inviting practices that are felt and lived. We’re excited to share this aspect of her teaching with our community and to create space for this way of practicing together.
