About Ariel & Shya Kane

In 1987, our lives profoundly and fundamentally shifted. We fell into the current moment. After years of diligently striving to improve ourselves and our lives we suddenly experienced our our own perfection and the perfection of the moment.

From that moment on, everything was different. Our lives became rich, easy and effortless. Our relationship transformed from “normal” bickering and complaint to a loving, intimate partnership. This new way of living – directly, without stress, worry or guilt – attracted the attention of our friends who invited us to speak to their companies, friends and families. These gatherings organically evolved into our seminars where we began sharing this new way of life so others could catch it for themselves. One of our clients wrote an article about her experience of being with us and called it “Instantaneous Transformation” – and the name stuck.

Now, millions of people all over the world have experienced the magic of Instantaneous Transformation and have seen their quality of lives shift. We share our practical approach to everyday well-being in our seminars, as well as through our books, articles, videos, online subscription program The Premium Excellence Club and on our weekly Internet radio show Being Here. People in our global community are also sharing their experiences by attending our seminars, calling into our radio show, posting on our Transformational Moments Blog and by hosting Say YES to Your Life! Meetups.

Our approach is anthropological in nature. (An anthropologist is one who observes human behavior and notates what he or she sees in a non-judgmental way). This empowers participants of our seminars to find peace of mind and well being by viewing their actions within a non-judgmental framework, allowing for honest self-observation without self-reproach. It also creates a safe learning environment where feedback is given and received in a non-threatening manner, which results in a strong support structure for improving self esteem.

What makes our approach unique is that it is not problem/solution oriented. We have found that the simple identification and recognition of unexamined behavior patterns or beliefs is enough to facilitate resolution without having to “work on” them as problems. As a result, anyone interested in finding peace of mind, self esteem and having well being discover a new possibility.

Prior to leading seminars, Ariel Kane was a successful actress, working on stage, in network television and films. She is an award-winning photographer* and currently holds five women’s world records with the International Game Fish Association. She is very proud of the fact that all of her records were caught on flies that Shya had personally made.

Shya Kane has led seminars in communication, effectiveness, time management and personal transformation since 1979. He has a degree in Anthropology from New York University.
