Luana Galoni – Yoga Teacher & Shamanic practitioner

Luana is a Shamanic practitioner, SYT at 1100hrs, and certified in integrative somatic trauma therapy. Deeply influenced by pioneering trauma experts including Dr. Peter Levine, Dr. Arielle Schwartz, Manuela Mischke-Reeds, Dr. Gabor Maté, and Dr. Bessel van der Kolk, she brings a comprehensive, body-centered approach to healing. Initially trained in the Ashtanga tradition, Luana’s Yoga practice has evolved to encompass Vinyasa, Pranayama, Tantra, and Ayurveda. She believes that Yoga can bring profound effects to anyone who connects with their inner power to overcome obstacles and achieve balance. In 2009, Luana embarked on a life-changing journey across South America, Asia, and Australia. Her travels led her to study with Shamans in Peru, where she has developed a deep connection with the Shipibo tribe, regularly visiting her Shipibo teachers and continuing to learn from their ancient healing traditions. She mastered the healing art of Reiki during these transformative experiences. In 2012, she completed her 200hrs Yoga teacher training in Ashtanga and Hatha at the Himalaya Yoga Valley School in India. Luana has trained with renowned yoga teachers, including Alessandra Pecorella and Shiva Rea for her 300hrs teacher training in Vinyasa Flow and Prana Flow. She is certified as a Yoga and Ayurveda wellness consultant, Rocket 1, and completed her 300hrs with Dr. David Frawley in Yoga, Ayurveda, Mantra, and Meditation. In 2020, she became a Holy Fire® III Karuna Reiki® Master. Luana also runs 200hrs Teacher Training courses with MoreYoga. As a Shamanic practitioner, Luana has completed training using techniques mainly from the Queros in the Andes of Peru. Her approach to healing, which she calls Temenos Touch, is hands-on, combining Reiki, Shamanic Healing, Soul Retrieval, and other physical and energetic techniques to address the source rather than just the symptoms. Luana’s classes are creative, challenging, and dynamic, yet playful and supportive, with a focus on breathwork and stilling the mind and body. Through her Yoga and treatments, Luana creates a space where people feel empowered to discover their full and authentic selves. Her passion for lifelong learning continues as she pursues further training in Yoga, Shamanism, and somatic trauma therapy, drawing inspiration from leading experts in mind-body healing.
