A Soulful Wellness Online Community
Anchored in the practices of mindful movement, Tantra yoga, meditation, universal consciousness, ritual and rest, and communion with the wisdom of nature.
Rooted in Natura offers online yoga and meditation classes, workshops, and trainings, as well as in-person retreats.
Our programs nurture a sense of belonging, creativity, reflection, and empowerment that sow the seeds of transformation within as we evolve on the journey from sense to soul.
We offer online yoga trainings and the occasional classes (free or by donation).
Rooted in Natura was founded by Shanine Dennill and Diana Lavadinho. Diana and Shanine met at Shanine’s yoga studio in Burlington, ON. They studied Folk Herbalism together in 2021 … this was when their vision of bringing nature and yoga together was born.
Online Classes include:
Meditation
Diana leads you through guided meditations based on her vast, in-depth studies in meditation and personal spiritual practice.
Restorative Yoga
Shanine leads you through a restful online restorative yoga practice (steeped in rituals and rest). Her specialty is Restorative Yoga and Yoga Nidra.
Tea Ceremonies
Diana and Shanine both studied Folk Herbalism. You will often find them sharing this information in these classes. These tea ceremonies are also a staple of their in-person Mini-Retreats.
Ayurveda
Shanine leads the occasional Ayurveda workshops to help us find harmony within and with our environment.
Online Yoga Trainings
Some courses that are required for the Restorative Yoga Teacher Training, Yoga Nidra Training, and the 300-hr training can be found here.
Creative Classes
These classes help us connect to our inner child and let our creativity shine through. These are led by Diana.

20-Day Sadhana Yoga &
Meditation Practice
Every new year starts with great intentions. But if there are underlying beliefs that keep tripping you up, those intentions or resolutions won’t last long. We need to heal these patterns and anchor them into something that holds deep reverence and devotion (so we follow through).
This 20-Day Sadhana Practice is held in the beginning of every new year.
Send Shanine an email if you wish to be in the next one.
Soulful Nature & Wellness Retreats
Enjoy in-person retreats with us. These retreats offer a deep connection with nature that awakens the remembrance of our truest essence (Natura). They give you space to rest and take care of yourself, while not having to rearrange your life. They are close by and only half a day.
All retreats include a tea ceremony and plant connection, a creative activity, a restful practice (such as a fire ceremony or Restorative Yoga and Yoga Nidra), and a cleansing ritual.
