Hi there! I'm Jess
An adventurer & optimistic human who thrives in the grounding presence of nature and is equally dazzled by big-city hustle. I adore learning and exploring ways to have full-bodied experiences in the ebb & flow of life.
I grew up in a small town in the Midwest, climbing trees & doing all things creative & messy. My childhood was expressed through dance, art, sports & swimming. This is where I first discovered the healing powers of movement and how life breathes through you when you are in a state of embodied Self.
​
After graduating from high school, I immersed myself in my university studies, dedicating countless hours to my academic pursuits. My journey took me around the world, allowing me to forge a deeper connection with myself along the way. However, years spent prioritizing work, friendships, & obligations eventually led to burnout, leaving me feeling depleted & uninspired.
​
My life underwent a profound transformation when I moved to South America & made the leap from classroom educator to Yoga instructor. During my recovery, I began to uncover the layers of my experience and tune into the signals my nervous system had been sending me all along. This journey of self-discovery revealed how I had been neglecting my body’s messages & allowed societal expectations to navigate my inner compass.
​
Now, I use my training & experience to empower people to deepen their self-relationship, equipping them with the tools they need to reconnect to their true Self. ​​
