"Colorful, magnetic, creative, passionate, dynamic...
With such grace and optimism, Shakti always seems to tap into the deeper current of Truth beyond the surface waves of what is apparent; she moves and breathes through even the most challenging of life's experiences with such grace, surrender, and openness. Her teaching style is deeply engaging. Shakti's child-like innocence and bubbling curiosity brings an ever-evolving freshness and aliveness to everyone who is blessed to have her as a teacher and a friend. I am so blessed and so grateful to have her in my life as both." — Dhyana Masla, Stanton Street Yoga, New York NY. |

"I was reflecting on the journey this morning in practice, and I remembered when my world felt grey. I would read your poem- "Goddess." It woke me up to something I knew but had forgotten. I prayed for color. ...I received a vision cast for yoga & music... Google took me to yrp & that led to Erik & then to you. I'm living my life in full psychedelic color and you, Goddess, your poetry, vision, all of it, I'm so grateful for!!!" — Lora Mccarville Ranam, Pranam Yoga Shala: Omaha NE |

"R.R. Shakti, has been, and is, an incredible inspiration.
She has helped me to grow and broadened my understanding of how we are all connected—not only to each other but also to our planet, our universe, and the great divine that resides in all beings. One of the coolest things I’ve learned from Shakti is that everyone embodies all archetypes. I’m also a sucker for a great story. It’s hard not to fall in love with the soulful and heart-filled way in which Shakti shares the stories of the gods and goddesses" —Talaya Thomas, Unity Productions Steamboat Springs CO. |
