Having initially studied forensic chemistry at Pace University, NYC in 2006, Jess immediately took an interest in Anatomy. That paired with having been a former athlete, always active and very passionate about fitness she sought after solace in yoga to soothe injuries caused by over exertion. What was supposed to be just a complementary activity accidentally turned into a full-blown love affair with a much deeper connection beneath the surface.
In September 2013, Jess obtained her Yoga Alliance teacher Certification under the tutelage of Heather Sheridan and Julie Gurevich. Emphasizing yoga’s power to transform using form and function, Jess’s classes are challenging and built from a foundation of showing us just how strong we really are. It is her philosophy that yoga shouldn’t be intimidating and that students should always leave class feeling a little bit better than when they arrived.
Most recently, Jess has traveled extensively taking and teaching classes and workshops in Toronto, Montreal, Quebec, Calgary, Vancouver, London, South of France, Rio de Janeiro, Sao Paulo and Marrakech in various languages and styles. In March 2015, Jess completed an additional 300 hours of teacher training via the POE ACADEMY in New Jersey with David Regelin, Dylan Werner, Ben Sears, Phillip Askew, Ivy Kaminer, Matt Giordano, Nevine Michaan & Abbie Galvin.
Jess continues to grow and explore as a student, currently engulfing herself most in the Katonah Yoga® Material.
