Oracles and druids are both excellent choices for a shaman.
An adept might also work.
Oracle or Druid, imo, are the best choices, depending on which Mystery and what, precisely, you mean by "Shaman."
You could do it with a Cleric, if you're going the "philosophical (non-deity)" cleric and select your Domains to fit.
But Oracle or Druid work with less work, if you take my meaning.
For NPCs, the Adept class easily re-skins to Shaman, maybe with a little skill tweaking (don't remember their class skills offhand) and maybe switching out a few spells on their list.
EDIT: Ninja? In a shaman thread?! ai-ya...
No, yes, and yes.
There isn't a shaman class in Paizo rules. There ARE several druid "animal shaman" archetypes. And some oracles are very shamanic (particularly, Ancestor, Bone, Juju and Nature mysteries).
There ARE a few shamanic class from 3PP- I remember Adamant's version in Tome of Secrets, Super Genius Games version, and Kobold Quarterly 21's version- that's my favorite as for now (a little oracle, a little witch and much druid).
A witch may also work, depending on what kind of shaman you plan on playing.

That's my favorite as well! ;)

The Witch class is also very Shaman style. That's the class I used for my Mwangi Shaman.

This thread is still something you could find in an internet search. The information in the thread was out-of-date. That's been fixed now. The internet is better as a result!
