Testimonial

Jess has long been one of my tip-top favorite yoga teachers. Her gentle demeanor, thoughtful sequences, and subtle use of music create a yoga experience that’s stimulating, strengthening, and deeply relaxing. When I worked with her in her capacity as a yoga therapist, I was bothered by shin, hip, and shoulder pain, all on the right side of my body. She saw the connections along that fascial plane, and gave me exercises and body work that were extremely helpful. The shin and shoulder pain soon resolved completely, and the hip pain improved. Thanks to Jess, I now have a toolbox of strategies for addressing these types of pain when they recur, which is highly likely since I have an old foot injury and degenerative arthritis. I highly recommend Jess to anyone seeking therapeutic care for chronic pain or discomfort.

At You & Jess Yoga, therapeutic yoga is not about achieving a pose—it’s about supporting the whole person. Through individualized, accessible, and trauma-informed practices you will leave each session feeling balanced, calmer, and more open to what lies ahead.

Rooted in the philosophy that yoga must be adapted to the individual, you will discover that yoga is for you in whatever season of life you are currently in. Reconnect with yourself through accessible movement and feel at peace with your body.
