Studio Administrator & Yoga Teacher

Originally from the East Coast of Canada, Jenn’s journey with yoga began unexpectedly in 2009 with an Ashtanga class that coincided with the winter solstice. This intense initiation, featuring 108 sun salutations and the teacher only speaking in Sanskrit, left her overwhelmed yet too embarrassed to leave. She was captivated by the discipline of those around her as she struggled and left the class determined to dive deeper into this ancient practice.

After three years of a committed Ashtanga practice, she found the rigorousness of the series no longer suited her body’s needs and that pain was commonplace after a class. Seeking a more adaptable and holistic approach to yoga, she started to dive into other styles of yoga including Iyengar, Anusara, Kundalini, Yin, Nidra, and Vinyasa. While exploring and learning from various teachers and styles was profoundly beneficial, it was in Vinyasa that she found a cohesive personal practice, in which all elements of yoga could come together in a classroom setting—resonating deeply with her mind, body, and soul.

Jenn completed her first 200-hour YTT certification in 2015 under her respected mentor, Amy Murphy. She has since completed an additional 600+ hours in training including certifications in Advanced YTT, Yin, Restorative, Nidra, Budokon, myofascial release, and advanced anatomy. Teaching and attending classes, workshops, trainings, and retreats worldwide have shaped her style and approach, prioritizing functional anatomy, and a deeper awareness of body, breath, and consciousness. Committed to growth, Jenn continually deepens her practice by learning, unlearning, and working toward decolonizing her teaching.

Jenn’s classes emphasize inclusivity for all levels and bodies. Her expertise in sequencing and cueing means that each class thoughtfully promotes proprioception within the body and mind through fluid movements and transitions. Expect to take it slow and be encouraged to do the work needed to tap into your intuitive self.
