About Jen
For over three decades, my career has been devoted to community health and wellness. My career has seen me as proprietor of a fitness centre and yoga studios, director of teacher training programs, delivering domestic and international yoga retreats and yoga and mindfulness initiatives in the corporate and educational sectors.
My approach is informed by extensive training, research and a deep curiosity about the human experience to alleviate suffering and uncover potential. I bring a rich and lived understanding of yoga, somatics, and embodiment as pathways to self-evolution.
I am a mother of 3 girls and I get the complexities and frustrations of trying to balance work, family and our own self care! I offer practical ways to bring yoga into busy lives and have seen yoga transform my students and how the positive benefits ripple into parenting, relationships and community.
I provide relaxed, welcoming retreats and classes, encouraging laughter and lightness, embracing you just as you are. Together, we nurture joy, love, creativity, personal power and a lot of fun!
