Angela Shak knows first-hand the toll a high-pressure career can take on the mind and body. After spending 20 years in the banking industry—navigating deadlines, long hours, and a sedentary lifestyle—she found herself struggling with anxiety and depression. In her search for relief, she stepped onto a yoga mat…and everything changed.
What began as a way to cope quickly became a passion. Angela immersed herself in the practice, earning her 200-Hour Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT) with Yoga Alliance, as well as a Master of Science in Innovation and Technology and her Project Management Professional credential. She now combines her corporate experience, deep compassion, and love of movement to guide others toward balance, resilience, and self-empowerment.
Based in Allen, Texas, Angela lives with her husband, two children, and two lively Chinese Crested dogs. Her mission is to make yoga accessible to anyone curious enough to explore it—no matter their age, fitness level, or flexibility. She is especially passionate about working with young athletes, helping them prevent injuries, build stability, and strengthen not just their bodies, but their confidence and focus. Most near to her heart is helping everyday people find strength, stability, and calm—one breath at a time.
Angela believes yoga is more than a series of poses—it’s a pathway to a healthier, calmer, and more connected life, and she’s committed to walking that path alongside her students.
