Yoga Teaching & Wellness Journey
Jessica first practiced yoga in high school to supplement her basketball training as a student-athlete. Once she began college and university, yoga and running were foundational practices and outlets for her mental and emotional health. She dove deeper into her yoga practice when she lost her father at the age of 19 and continued throughout other experiences of grief and heartbreak. Jessica started her journey into teacher training in 2012 and has been practicing, teaching, and studying yoga asana and philosophy since then. Her commitment to her yoga practice has supported her journey of becoming a mother and has provided a foundation for her ceremonial commitments, including helping and participating in various healing ceremonies, including the Sundance, fasting, and Sweat lodge.
Jessica has offered yoga and meditation classes, wellness series, and workshops to a variety of First Nations, Inuit, and Metis peoples of all ages, as well as to many organizations, institutions, corporate and non-profit groups.
“Yoga is a process and a goal – it is the skill in action of being fully present, in every action, in every moment. My yoga practice is a place where I meet and release myself over and over again. ”
