Testimonials
“I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude for the workshop Shahin conducted for the Lamondance Arts Society. The meditation workshop was a remarkable experience for all of us at Lamondance.
In these challenging times that the world is going through, her workshop brought much-needed awareness to the importance of mental health. Shahin provided us with practical tools and techniques to navigate our day-to-day lives and find balance amidst the emotional pressures we face as dancers and adults in the making.
Her light and powerful energy immediately filled the room, creating a sense of tranquillity and guidance for all of us. She fostered an environment free of judgment and negativity, offering practical dynamics and activities, allowing us to explore and grow without fear.
Her ability to make the subject of mental health more accessible and understandable through these activities was truly remarkable. It allowed us dancers and directors to actively engage with the topic and delve deeper into our mental well-being.
Incorporating practical exercises and discussions made exploring mental health a little easier. It helped us understand the importance of mental health and identify ways to apply what we learned in our daily lives.”

“Words cannot fully express Shahin’s meditation workshop’s profound impact. Having Shahin facilitate a workshop at Lamondance was an enlightening, transformative experience that left an indelible mark on each student. Shahin’s extensive knowledge of scientific concepts and her practical tools for nervous system regulation created a workshop that was both unique and deeply impactful.
What struck me most about Shahin’s workshop was her remarkable ability to blend scientific knowledge with practical applications seamlessly. She eloquently explained the intricate workings of our nervous system, providing us with a solid foundation to understand the immense value of meditation and mindfulness practices. Her explanations resonated with me, allowing me to truly grasp the importance of cultivating inner peace and awareness.
What truly set this workshop apart was the ongoing check-ins and feedback that Shahin incorporated into the sessions. Instead of a one-size-fits-all approach, she was genuinely interested in the individual needs of each student. Her willingness to listen and adapt the workshop to address our unique concerns and challenges was refreshing and empowering. This personalized touch made the workshop incredibly relevant and engaging for all participants, leaving us with practical tools to navigate our dance journey more mindfully.

“Shahin is an engaging speaker who brings authenticity and empathy to her work. The feedback we’ve gotten has been overwhelmingly positive with participants sharing not only how much they liked the practical tips that Shahin shared with us, but that they’re actually going to be putting them into daily practice. I love how Shahin went beyond the mindfulness component but backed her content up with science. Through simple language, relatable examples, and effective demos, Shahin was able to truly connect with the participants. I’d definitely recommend working with Shahin to educate your community on mindfulness, I’d definitely be reaching out to her again to lead more wellness webinars for us!”
