Practicing holistic health and wellness since she was a child, Genevieve attended her first yoga class at the age of six. It was the early 80's and Yoga was not yet mainstream. Growing up, Yoga felt like home and the people felt like family. All who practiced in those days were warm and welcoming. This is what Genevieve had in mind when she opened iShine Yoga & Wellness in 2017.
Genevieve's passion for a sustainable yoga practice comes from having a hippy Mother who encourages 'deep breathing' over traditional medicine, and studying classical ballet where a genuine connection with the body is necessary in finding grace.
Alongside her still hippy mother, Anita Schambach, (RYT 200®, HeartMath® Coach & iShine Ambassador) the two run and operate the studio as Yoga & Wellness Co-op with one of the most warm and dedicated teams on earth.
In Genevieve's class the focus is on pranayama (breathwork) and finding freedom through curating connection within the body.
Her approach encompasses mindfulness and meditation where the exploration of Yoga is celebrated as a sacred time to go inside and find a place that elevates and inspires from within.
Genevieve was born in Savannah, GA, went to Ohio University, and lives in Huntersville, NC with her husband Andrew (RYT 200® & iShine Ambassador), daughter Stella Rose, son Jack Henry, and spoiled golden retriever - Oso.
Genevieve has found passion leading Teacher Trainings & Yoga Retreats where all individuals are encouraged to Shine and Unlock the Power of "i".
Genevieve is also the Owner and Founder of Love & Light Photography in Huntersville.
