Founder: Shaunna Sutcliffe, ERYT-500hr
I am Shaunna the owner and operator. I taught at Epidavros in Gresham for over 10 years and then managed for 1 year. When Epidavros had to close, I was able to open Rising Tide Yoga Studio in its place.

I want to live in every moment every day, surf when I’m 80, and play with my great-grandkids. It is my pleasure and my goal to help you create similar goals and to achieve them. Yoga and wellness have helped me do this, and to overcome stress & chronic pain, which can cause premature aging and disease. I truly believe that without yoga, self-care and nutrition, I would be severely disabled.

As a chronic disease and pain survivor, I need movement and self-care daily. I have several students with disease, injuries, pain, and other disorders, who have improved their daily pain levels, posture, and healing times from injuries. I also have students who just want to lose weight or increase strength.

Certifications and Training: In 2012 I received my 200-hour Certification with Heartsong Yoga In Beaverton. In 2015 I received my 500-hour Holistic Yoga Therapeutics with Annie Adamson at Yoga Union in Portland, Oregon, and Primal Vinyasa Certification in 2017 from Annie as well. I have training in Vinyasa yoga, Yoga for Seniors, and Chair yoga, and certifications in Aerial Yoga, and The Roll Model Method (self-massage training with Jill Miller). In October 2021 I received my Reiki 1 certification and will receive my Health Coach Certification in December 2021. In 2023 I took the Yoga and Lymphatics Training with Yoga Medicine and the Trauma Informed training with Sedona Yoga Festival.

I’m focusing on Health Coaching now, helping clients learn healthy grocery shopping, cooking, and meal planning. This can all be done virtually, or in person if you prefer.

Nutrition, stability, strength, and health are more important now, as our culture has designed a life of ease, more sitting, and less physical work. People have more injuries and pain from repetitive movement patterns and lack of movement now! We will work TOGETHER to create goals, mantras, and a vision of your future that you CAN achieve.

My dream is to find my body’s true potential and live life to the fullest; what’s yours?
