Jessica has been a practicing yogini since 2000 when her toes first touched a loaner yoga mat in Austin, TX.  Since then she has practiced many Hatha styles, including Ashtanga, Bikram, Iyengar, Jivamukti, Forrest, Baptiste, and Boustany Method.  She strives as a teacher to provide a fun and safe space for transformation to occur within each of her students. 

She began teaching in 2001, and has since completed multiple teacher trainings in an ever expanding desire to learn all that she can about the practice of yoga.  She completed her RYT 200 in July of 2003, her RYT 500 in January of 2005, a year long teacher training with Robert Boustany in 2006, and is currently working to obtain her E-RYT through Yoga Alliance.  Her passion is to continue deepening her knowledge of anatomy, kinetics, posture sequencing, and energy movement. 

Her classes are fun filled with laughter and joy, focusing on opening the heart and hips, facing oneself and what is holding them back on the mat, and providing a safe space to explore all that life has to offer.  She loves to teach a flow style, with a bit of ‘Robert’ and ‘Paul’ thrown in to challenge comfort zones.  Her devotion to her students,  her teaching, and her practice is what keeps her going …. Always remembering to honor that light that shines within you, and the light that shines within all others.
