meet jenn

i reside on a serene part of the unceded and traditional territory of the pacheedaht and t'sou-ke first nation people, otherwise known as southern vancouver island, bc. i feel deeply connected to the abundant, wild and raw nature here. i find joy and big love in my partner and two doggies. i currently hold a RYT-500 (500 hour advanced yoga teacher certification), in a practicum to become a yoga therapist (c-iayt). 

i am interested in the difficult work that allows us to tune into our most authentic, thriving selves. i am driven to call in our entire story including the shadow parts that we may find inaccessible on our own. i am curious about moving through these parts of us that may feel stuck or hopeless or unlovable. i want to welcome everything that we are and remind ourselves that we have the innate wisdom and power to cultivate our own healing and begin again. 

discovering yoga

when i first tried yoga, i was drawn in because it made me feel lighter. i experienced a feeling of clearing out, a release of stagnant energy. the moving and unison of breath and body shapes felt good. i felt self-empowered. i started a regular practice and soon saw yoga transform my life with a simple and holy ease. yoga [re]introduced me to my calm, resilient heart. it showed me the way to awareness and grace, especially in difficult times. the practice continues to support me in the cyclical healing and discovery of life.
