Her teaching style is vibrant, sincere and fun.



Sharoni is the founder and co-director of CIY. Her yoga journey began 17 years ago and five years later she took her first workshop with Faeq Biria, who profoundly inspired her in the subject. Sharoni has a Bachelor’s degree in philosophy. Sharoni practices locally with Norman Sjoman and continues annual training with Faeq and Corine Biria and Jawahar Bangera. She has taken multiple trips to Pune, India, to study with the Iyengars and is the Membership Chair and an Assessor-In-Training for the Iyengar Yoga Association of Canada.
