Hi I’m jEss.

I've been teaching yoga + movement for about 10 years now. My teaching style is a strong + playful vinyasa with a focus on helping students to connect to their intuitive body-mind. I am an E-RYT 200, lead retreats and have a passion for my own personal practice. I love helping others discover their inherent strength + peace. I love teaching students (aren’t we all students) AND I LOVE teaching teachers. Helping new teachers find their voice, refine their skills + access genuine confidence in themselves is one of my favorite things.

My goal as a teacher is to offer students + other teachers what yoga has given me; a safe place to land + explore their inner world. I believe once the practice of yoga is in your heart, you have it for life. The more awareness + intention we give to our physical practice the bigger benefit to our heart, mind + soul..

certifications + continuing education
