Class Descriptions

  • Hatha comes from two words in Sanskrit "ha" meaning "sun" and "tha" meaning "moon". In Hatha classes, we will find balance between these two elements, between effort and ease, strength and rest.

    Hatha Yoga classes focus on the fundamentals of postures and breathwork. These classes emphasize alignment and balance, making them perfect for beginners as well as those looking to deepen their practice. Sessions are slower-paced, allowing for a mindful approach to movement.

  • Pregnancy and the postpartum period are two of the most transformational times in a woman's life. Jess is passionate about supporting women during these times with movement, breath and meditation.

    The Prenatal Yoga classes cater specifically to expectant mothers, providing safe and nurturing practices. The focus is on strengthening the body, alleviating discomfort, and preparing for childbirth while fostering a sense of connection with the baby. These classes also offer a supportive community for sharing experiences with fellow moms-to-be.

  • Restorative yoga (or as Jess likes to call it, "napping yoga") is one of the most profound practices on the planet which facilitates deep rest within the body and mind.

    In a Restorative yoga classes, you’ll find a soothing environment that encourages relaxation and healing. Using props to support the body in various poses, this class helps release tension and promotes deep relaxation. It’s ideal for anyone needing to unwind or recovering from stress or injury.

  • “My private yoga class with Jess was exactly what I needed after a long day of traveling. Moving through restorative poses while utilizing a lot of props in creative ways helped me let go even more and relax into the practice. Having the full attention of my teacher felt like the highest luxury.”
