yoga at home?
sign me up
I'm Jess, Boss of Bliss at YB. I'm a scientist-turned-yogi, creator of The Yogic Body, and owner of The Yogic Body Studio.
After losing my mother-in-law to terminal cancer, I decided to fully dedicate myself to wellness through yoga. Now I teach the benefits of yoga in-studio and online. I urge you to join me. Consider me your coach and your confidant, advocating for you to cultivate your yogic body - united with a sound mind, a backbone, and a say in how you live your life.
I began practicing yoga at The Yogic Body Studio to help with my martial arts training, specifically to work on flexibility and balance. I was a little nervous to try yoga, as I'm not as limber as I used to be and had little exposure to yoga up until this point. Jess is a terrific instructor and is very patient with new practitioners.

Jess is an awesome yoga instructor, wonderful for all levels and ages! Her instructions during class are concise and very clear, and she provides an environment in which all students feel very welcome and most appreciated. Equally rewarding are the short (and I think) inspired meditations she provides at the end of each class. Beginning yoga under her direction, with both group and private lessons, has been a terrific new addition to my life!

Do not be nervous to join us. We know the feeling; we have all been nervous to try something new or meet a new group of people. I assure you, any doubt you are having is easily overcome-able when you step on to your mat and follow along with our supportive group of students. We are proud to say many new students have joined us for class and left saying they had never felt more comfortable trying something new! In fact, The Yogic Body was started to help women combat worry through a yoga practice. It is OUR MISSION to welcome you fully.
Please wear comfortable, stretchy, light weight clothing and bring water. If this is your first ever yoga class expect to have a beginner's mindset through class. You will breathe in ways you never tried and move in ways you didn't know you could. You might even feel stiffer than you thought. That's why we practice. During class you might find your mind wandering, we recommend coming back to counting your inhales. Don't be discouraged as you learn this practice.
"I appreciate the witty sense of humor, light, and joy Jess bring in such a nurturing space. She is the most authentic, genuine, and passionate yoga teacher I know. She fully invests in her students so that we can know the healing power of our bodies, minds, and spirits."
"She is a wonderful woman who struggled in life and can deeply understand what it is like to have anxiety. She is truly empathetic and always has something to say to make me feel less alone in the world."
"I teach special education and because of The Yogic Body, my students are currently learning basic poses and techniques. It has definitely helped all of my students and I have you to thank you!"
Jess and her team make you feel welcome, loved and super comfortable, like you are part of the family. Classes are totally amazing, there is something new and special on each class. Jess's classes in studio and online (youtube) get you into a "YES YOU CAN" mindset right away.
