500 Hour Registered Yoga Teacher

Jennifer received her initial yoga training through the Yoga Institute of Houston with Lex Gillan, Stan Hafner and Johanna Sullivan. Jennifer completed her advanced yoga teacher training through the Himalayan Institute in Allhabad, India with Sandra Anderson, Mary Cardinal, DC Rao, and Rolf Sovik, MD. She received her prenatal training at Om with Janice Clarfield. Jennifer first discovered yoga while pursuing her BFA in classical theater at NYU's Tisch School of the Arts. She fell in love with the connection of breath and movement that opened up the body for voice, speech, diaphragmatic breathing, character development, and concentration. In addition, Jennifer has an extensive movement background. She has studied movement with Joanne Edelmann and Joan Evans.

Jennifer has taught yoga at NYU, sports clubs, Y's, nursery schools and spas throughout New York City, and to stage actors pre rehearsal and pre performance.

                 True morality consists 
          not in following the well-beaten track, 
                        but in finding out the true path for ourselves 
                 and in fearlessly following it"

– Mahatma Gandhi
