About
Jackie’s journey into yoga began at 15, deeply influenced by her background in dance, sports, and physical therapy.
Growing up, she was an avid swimmer, tennis player, and high school soccer team captain, fostering a lifelong passion for movement. She later pursued a degree in Physical Therapy at Universidad del Valle Mexico before permanently moving to Chicago in 2017. With a professional background in pediatric therapy, Jackie worked as a daycare coordinator, special needs preschool teacher, and behavioral therapist before transitioning into administration. Through these experiences, she developed a deep understanding of child development, body mechanics, and the power of connection through movement. Now, as a mother of two—including two children with special needs—Jackie has found a new path in yoga instruction. A soon-to-be 200-hour RYT-certified yoga teacher, she integrates her knowledge of wellness, therapy, and movement to create meaningful experiences for families. Balancing life as a full-time mom, part-time professional photographer, and yoga instructor, Jackie’s practice is rooted in fostering trust, connection, and mindful movement for all.
