It’s about being open and finding your voice. About getting messy and being loud. It’s about being free and heard and seen and truthful and fearless. It’s about the willingness to look like a dork. To let go of what others think. I use the body as a vehicle, the yoga part is not the focus but rather a method to get the people in out of the prompts and the experience. Mostly it’s about being human. There is no way to really describe it. I created a thing that wasn’t a thing but is now a thing. That thing can’t be labeled or put in a box but I can do my best to describe it.
I’ve been practicing yoga for 20 years. Along the way, I’ve had some pretty remarkable teachers. But, I can say I’ve had none like Jen. Not knowing what to expect, I hopped a train in Rome (where I currently live) and headed up to Tuscany for her retreat on the recommendation of a friend.
I headed into class expecting all the normal twisting and adjustments, but what I got was so much more. She takes you to another place entirely. Yoga for me has always been grounding, a place to struggle and rest, to release and search. Jen gave me all that and also made it fun like only Jen can. You may walk in with an ego, but you won’t walk out with one. W
“Your retreat in Ojai Jenn! My soul needed that. You are truly a gifted girl. The way you balance sincerity and levity.
You are one funny powerful woman!
