One morning in 1997, Jen began her yoga inquiry alone in her living room; with a kit that contained a mat, blocks and a VHS tape. Her practice expanded to regular studio classes and then to Hatha teacher training 10 years later. Since completion of her first training in 2008; she has been teaching yoga in studios, privately to individuals and groups, and in community classes in Kingston/Katarokwi. Jen is committed to delivering a clear, intentional and inclusive practice to willing humans of any level of experience. She encourages beginning from grounded stability with deep attention to breath and the sensations of the body, paired with curiosity and gentleness. Her classes frequently infuse functional mobility into exploration of traditional yoga postures. Props are a valued tool. Students receive guidance with scalable options to empower them to meet the shapes offered, in a way that works for their own body, to practice acceptance, and to believe in their potential to ever-shift.
