Restore & Reset
Establish Equilibrium
Life moves pretty fast, and most of us are living our lives in a state of chronic stress and overwhelm.Our current western lifestyle, with its reliance on technology, demanding pressures and daily stressors, results in overwhelm and overstimulation for most of us.Our efforts to keep up in this fast-paced culture, that does not support healing and rest in our bodies and minds, places unrealistic demands on our inner resources and often results in exhaustion, anxiety, depression and overall dis-ease.

Meet Your Facilitator
Jenny Jackson
Jenny Jackson has been immersed in Movement Education for more than 20 years. Jenny is a seeker of inner well-being, and she consciously aligns herself living with an open mind, an open heart and embodies joy & vitality which is reflected in her welcoming & inclusive style of instruction. She teaches with a strong anatomical influence while still deeply honouring the classical roots of yoga. Jenny believes that feeling vital and in harmony with others & within our own selves is the primary goal (in life and in our bodies), and practice should reflect this.
