SARITA SHIMIZU
I’m Sarita Shimizu, a passionate Yoga and Pilates instructor, dedicated to helping you feel and be your best through a wide range of wellness practices. My teaching is deeply rooted in my own personal healing experiences, and I aim to inspire genuine growth in each of my students. I was professionally trained at Ahana Yoga, where I had the privilege of apprenticing with Dawn Feinberg. Coming from a family of shiatsu healers, I incorporate hands-on techniques into my classes to offer a high-level yoga experience, helping you develop the tools to navigate life with more compassion and grace. You can also find me at Jetset Pilates Downtown, where I offer strength and endurance training that will make you laugh, cry, and keep coming back for more!
My teaching style is diverse, and I’m known for leading everything from dynamic Power Yoga Flows to relaxing Restorative Practices, Sound Healing, HIIT and Flow classes, Yoga Booty, Modern Reformer, and Mat Pilates. Currently, I’m expanding my repertoire with 875hr Yoga Therapy Training through Breathing Deeply Yoga. No matter the style, my classes are always a fun, creative, and dynamic journey of strength, healing, and growth.
In addition to teaching in-studio classes at Ahana Yoga in the Design District and Jetset Pilates Downtown, I actively engage with the Miami yoga community. I’ve had the honor of being part of events with the Miami Design District, ALO, Free People Movement, South Beach Wine and Food Festival, Ocean Drive, and The W South Beach, to name a few. I also serve as a mentor, helping to lead teacher trainings at Ahana Yoga, where I share my passion with aspiring instructors and guide them on a transformative journey toward well-being.
