Jai Shiva! I am known as the "professional hippie" Yogini Shakti, and am a RYS 500, certified Meditation Teacher and certified Mindfulness Coach pursuing my E-RYT 500, 1600 hour master training, and Yoga Therapist. I have been practicing yoga for over twenty years and have taught every age, level, ability, ambition, and style there is! Outside of yoga, I am a spiritual kinesiologist and teach at SUNY Cortland while pursing my Doctorate of Philosophy in Kinesiology from Concordia St. Paul emphasizing metaphysics with a heavy focus on yogic science. I am extremely passionate about expression, happiness, and love through yoga and welcome all students with an open heart.
I am the founder and owner of Intuition Healing Arts, a company born of my innate desire to spread wellness and peace to all that I can, and offer yoga, meditation, mindfulness coaching, Ayurvedic nutrition, reiki, psychic readings, and more. My blossoming Ashtanga Vinyasa school, Firebird Yoga, is formed on the idea that we continually recreate ourselves and rise from the ashes of who we used to be. You can also find the Earthsong Boutique, a collection of stones, crystals, healing jewelry, ritual tools, and yoga/hippie apparel, all made sustainably!

Native Americans lived in this area for thousands of years. When reached by Europeans, this area was controlled by the Cayuga tribe of Indians, one of the Five Civilized Tribes or Iroquois League. Jesuitmissionaries from New France in present-day Quebec had a mission to convert the Cayuga as early as 1657. Saponi and Tutelo peoples, Siouan-speaking tribes, later occupied lands at the south end of Cayuga Lake. Dependent tributaries of the Cayuga, they had been permitted to settle on the tribe's hunting lands at the south end of Cayuga Lake, and in Pony (originally Sapony) Hollow of present-day Newfield, New York. Remnants of these tribes had been forced from Virginia and North Carolina by tribal conflicts and European colonial settlement. Similarly, the Tuscarora people, an Iroquoian-speaking tribe from the Carolinas, migrated after defeat in the Yamasee War; they settled with the Oneida people and became the sixth nation of the Haudenosaunee, with chiefs stating the migration was complete in 1722.
During the American Revolutionary War, four of the then-six Iroquois nations helped the British attempt to crush the revolution, although bands made decisions on fighting in a highly decentralized way. Conflict with the rebel colonists was fierce throughout the Mohawk Valley and Western New York. In retaliation for conflicts to the east and resentment at the way in which the Iroquois made war, the 1779 Sullivan Expedition was conducted against the Iroquois in the west of the state, destroying more than 40 villages and stored winter crops and forcing their retreat from the area.[8] It destroyed the Tutelo village of Coregonal, located near what is now the junction of state routes 13 and 13A just south of Ithaca. Most Iroquois were forced from the state after the Revolutionary War, but some remnants remained. The state sold off the former Iroquois lands to stimulate development and settlement by non-indigenous Americans; lands were also granted as payment to veterans of the war.
Within the current boundaries of Ithaca, Native Americans maintained a temporary hunting camp at the base of Cascadilla Gorge. In 1788, eleven men from Kingston, New York, came to the area with two Lenape guides, to explore what they considered wilderness. The following year Jacob Yaple, Isaac Dumond, and Peter Hinepaw returned with their families and constructed log cabins. That same year Abraham Bloodgood of Albany obtained a patent from the state for 1,400 acres, which included all of the present downtown west of Tioga Street.
