Art by Saya Behnam
Lana Reed
Long-time yoga professional & certified Qi Gong teacher
Lana loves the way she feels practicing the meditative energy flows that are the signature of Qi Gong. She loves sharing Qi Gong's healing practices that access meridians and pressure points, as well as sharing how to release tension and strong emotions with dynamic Qi Gong movements.
Under her spiritual name of Shakta Khalsa, Lana has been a world-leader in children's yoga, founder of Radiant Child Yoga training program, author of six well-known books, and long-time Kundalini Yoga teacher.
Lana loves hanging out at her home in northern Virginia with her husband, her dogs, and her cats. She is grateful to take time for daily walks in the lush forests of Virginia listening to audiobooks, work with color through painting and drawing and cook delicious vegan food. As a semi-retired senior, she volunteers her time with progressive activist groups, animal rescue groups, and loves to travel to Colorado to visit her wonderful son.

Saya Behnam
Iranian-American artist who makes her own natural paints from plants.
All of the fine art that you see on Lana's site comes from the genius of her good friend, and well-known artist, Saya Behnam.
Fleeing from war, turmoil, revolution, experiencing dictatorship, cultural and traditional barriers, all had a profound influence in Sayeh "Saya" Behnam's art and life.
She believes her art is where she can easily find and establish a true identity that could very much have been lost and undefined. Her art deals with the core concepts of the human being; life, death, freedom, the now, time and more.
She is very active in the social and humanitarian art space, working with NGO's in the Middle East and the USA, especially with street children. She currently lives in northern Virginia, near the Washington D.C. metropolitan area.

She also offers workshops occasionally and free classes too. Sign up to her mailing list so you’ll be in the loop.
For Lana, it is more important that people are able to experience this wonderful healthy practice of Qi Gong, so her classes are priced at the very lowest end of what might be considered reasonable.
