About

Jenny-standing-backbend.png

Jenny has always been fascinated by the living human experience and what it means to embody an inspired, holistic lifestyle. As a registered E-RYT and YACEP, health coach and multidisciplinary designer, Jenny guides people in realizing a more innate connection with themselves through breath, consciousness, and movement. She supports others in developing the skills and self-understanding to navigate their lives, health and wellness with groundedness and peace, aligned with their soul purpose. Versed in multiple modalities, Jenny’s offerings have successfully empowered clients and students to positively transform their health and well-being, in mind, body and spirit.

Jenny believes that all humans have the capacity to heal and thrive in life through self discovery. This is at the heart of her work as a creative and wellness professional, and fuels her passion to help people design long-lasting mindfulness practices. Threading the wisdom of ancient practices together with conscious movement and pranayama through her modern lens, Jenny has guided her fellow humans to move and live with intention, and own their innate true essence.

Her early interest in meditation led Jenny to appreciate the physical asanas and other aspects of the yoga practice. Recovery from lifelong illness and several injuries, coupled with her innate desire for continuous learning, inspired and cultivated a deep and steady practice. Her first teacher training after an unfortunate injury was only intended to deepen her own personal knowledge. However, she quickly realized her natural affinity for sharing these essential life tools, and her students’ connections to her genuine, heartfelt communication style led her to teaching full time.

Jenny’s desire to create positive ripples in the world by supporting health and well-being is a living practice that she works daily to embody in her own life. Her specialties include thoughtfully sequenced, playful Vinyasa yoga, Restorative yoga for self-care, healing and restoration, Yin Yoga for supple fascia and introspection, gentle yoga and chair yoga for older populations and terminal illness, PT-focused physiyoga for functional movement and special conditions (strengthening, injury or specific physical circumstances), Ayurvedic yoga to align our connection with nature, elevated Cannabis Yoga Experiences (for ages 21+ in legal states only) and mindfulness meditation.

In addition to trainings, experimentation and her global worldview, Jenny’s purpose work in health and wellness is informed by her greatest gifts: her sharp intuition and ability to connect energetically with her environment and communities. Her perceptiveness and deep empathy help reveal the root of people’s needs, wishes and individuality and her ultimate belief that everybody deserves to live well and wholly continues to fuel her work. By embracing the imperfect experience of living daily self awareness as a human, and authentically sharing her stories through teaching, she models to others to own their personal choices, evolution and self discoveries both on and off the mat.

The yoga practice can feel like a sweet homecoming back to your authentic self and Jenny believes that you are, and will always be, your own greatest teacher in finding your path home. She simply is a guiding light channeling the teachings and practices to help you connect and reconnect with your inner spark and spirit to live in joyful harmony with what you believe your truest life to be.

Above all else, Jenny is thankful for her biggest inspirations whom she engages with every day - her beloved clients and students.
