Meet Sasha
My offerings are a wholesome braiding of Science & Soul.
Post completing my degree in Kinesiology, I worked for 10 years as a trainer & athletic coach until the wisdom of Yoga intersected my path. It felt like a remembering, a long awaited home coming. For the past 15 years, I have guided thousands of classes around the world, taught for two years in New York City, facilitated 200 + 300 hour Yoga teacher trainings and led international retreats.
5 years ago, at a week long vision quest with a Shamanic teacher, I found a deeper connection to myself and the natural world through these ancient ways. Now a certified Shamanic practitioner, I facilitate both private sessions and group gatherings.
I have arrived home here in the East Kootenay’s, opening the doors to Kula for you all to gather, feel, heal, move, connect, and rest.
I can’t wait to sit with you.
The Bellwether & Kula are two unique businesses within one beautiful space co inspired by two long time friends, Celeste & Sasha. The beautiful vision of the spaces was designed by Celeste who is gifted with a timeless eye for making places feel soulful .We have created a place where you can tend to both your inner and outer home.
We are both long time teachers in the path of Yoga & believe in cultivating relationships & nurturing connection in community.
We can’t wait to meet you here!

Sharon Coombs
Sharon found yoga as a path to rehabilitation after a series of injuries. Yoga helped her so much both physically and mentally that she had to share it with others.
Sharon has been practicing and teaching across Canada for 15 years.
She uses her knowledge of the human body (as an RMT) and her curiosity to move and play to make each class unique, accessible to all levels, and as challenging as you wish. "It is my sincere hope that you feel both cared for and challenged, empowered and sovereign, and that you may always return to your breath"
You can find her teaching weekly Thursdays 6-7:00 PM Core Flow.
