About Shakira Isabel Sherrod

Shakira Isabel Sherrod is a Trauma Informed Wellness Educator, Certified Embodied Dance & Movement Guide, Yoga Instructor, Meditation Facilitator, Speaker, and Recovery Advocate dedicated to helping people reconnect with themselves through mindfulness, movement, and embodied practices.

With over 15 years of experience in dance and movement, Shakira brings together movement, yoga, breathwork, meditation, mindfulness, and self inquiry to create transformative wellness experiences that support self awareness, emotional regulation, resilience, and a deeper connection to the body.

Her work is rooted in the understanding that the body is an important part of our healing and that movement can become a pathway to expression, regulation, reconnection, and freedom. Through trauma informed practices, Shakira creates compassionate and supportive spaces where individuals can slow down, become present, listen to their bodies, and develop practical tools for navigating stress and life’s challenges.

Shakira’s approach is also deeply informed by her lived experience. Her journey through addiction and recovery taught her the power of community, self awareness, faith, and learning to reconnect with herself. Rather than separating her personal story from her professional work, she allows her experiences to inform the compassion, authenticity, and resilience she brings into every space she enters.

In 2017, Shakira recognized that guiding others through movement and healing was more than a passion—it was a spiritual assignment. She began creating intimate spaces that combined movement, storytelling, reflection, and journaling, and that calling has continued to evolve into the wellness education, workshops, classes, international retreats, and programs she facilitates today.

Her work extends across community wellness, recovery, women’s wellness, and institutional settings, including opportunities to serve correctional and youth facilities, community organizations, wellness spaces, and other organizations seeking trauma informed approaches to well being.

At the heart of everything Shakira does is her faith in God. She believes her gifts, experiences, and story have purpose, and she gives all glory to God for the assignment placed on her life.

Her mission is simple:

To create spaces where people can pause, reconnect, and remember that they are worthy of healing, wholeness, and a life rooted in purpose.

Through movement, mindfulness, and embodied wellness, Shakira reminds others that they do not have to abandon themselves to survive. They can learn to come home to themselves—one breath, one movement, and one moment at a time.

Remember, Beautiful Soul:

You’re worth it. ♡

With love,
Shakira Isabel Sherrod
