About

Rooted Heart Yoga & Art Studio strives to provide creative expression and healing to the local community.

Combining Yoga, Art, Intuitive Coaching, Reiki, Sound Therapy, & Personal Training in one space. We offer Yoga classes (membership & series) & courses, local events & fundraisers, and a space for local artists to showcase their art.

This studio’s plan is to tap into the ‘roots’ of our community and support local healers and artists as they express their heartfelt desire to help others. When a customer enters the space, we want them to feel connected as a community, whether that is connecting with the artwork, to the teachers and students in a yoga class, with a healing Reiki or Coaching session, or bonding with others through an event or fundraiser offered in the space. We believe in connection to ourselves and others, and we hope this space will become the heart of the community.

Shelley Hoffos, Owner

Shelley grew up in the Grande Prairie area and has always had the desire to help others. She found her root to do so within Intuitive Coaching, Yoga and Energy Healing.

This is where Rooted Heart Yoga and Wellness was born. “Rooted” to stay grounded and present within yourself, “Heart” to stay connected to your heart and allow yourself to be guided by your intuition. Shelley offers a constant source of strength and compassion to her coaching clients. Her gift is guiding others towards their passion, purpose, and presence in life. With dedication, intention, and commitment she loves to support others to create more connection in their lives and hearts creating profound healing to awaken to their radiant selves. Shelley is dedicated to helping students practice yoga in a way that respects and embraces their unique bodies. She brings vibrant compassion, increased self awareness, self-acceptance, and self-love to the mat.
