Nature Wise Yoga

Sole proprietor of Nature Wise Yoga, she has taught over 400 yoga classes in Victoria on Vancouver Island as well as 46 classes in Revelstoke in the interior mountains of British Columbia, Canada.  Jenny shares her passion for both Yoga and Nature on and off her mat. She began her yoga practice as a teenager, becoming a serious daily practitioner in 1990. Wherever she lived in Canada, Jenny sampled diverse approaches, including Iyengar, Hatha, Astanga, Vinyasa, Yasodhara (formerly Raja), and Anusara.  After her career with Parks Canada and the BC Ministry of Environment, Jenny took yoga teacher training from Blissologist Eoin Finn and received her RYT certification in 2012.  A life-long learner, Jenny augments her expertise with specialized yoga courses and workshops. What currently excites her and has revolutionized her personal practice and teaching is the YogAlign Method® developed by Michaelle Edwards. In 2014 Jenny became one of the few people in British Columbia certified to teach YogAlign®.  Jenny weaves her knowledge of environmental science with her understanding of Yoga to create unique, fun, nature-inspired, hatha flow yoga classes. She provides posture alignment advice and options for all yoga experience levels.  By teaching yoga in a way that respects and appreciates Nature, she helps people tap into the natural world's life force in a way that helps sustain their bodies, minds, and spirits.  "Yoga helps generate the resilience and compassion we need to nurture ourselves, one another, our communities, and the planet."
