About Jess

Jess initially began practicing yoga as a form of therapy after spinal surgery. She quickly felt the physical benefits as well as the mental value and became qualified to teach in 2009. She is accredited with Yoga Alliance and The Complimentary Medical Association. Jess also holds a positivity and resilience psychology certification/accreditation.

She instructs hatha yoga, hot yoga and yin yoga and runs the Yang Yin classes at the Tree of Life Mondays through Fridays at 8:15am during term time. Jess understands the importance of group energy but also knows how vital it is for some people to have an individual practice.

Yang Yin Yoga - weekday mornings at 8:15am

Practicing yoga in the early morning will allow you to have more energy for the rest of the day. If you’re a beginner or intermediate, come along to these yoga classes with Jess. The sessions focus on warming up the body safely with a vinyasa flow sequence, followed by hatha poses, concentrating on strength, flexibility and balance. We end each class with savasana so that you leave feeling energized yet relaxed. Each class aims to help nurture your self-belief along with gaining physical, emotional and mental awareness.

Yoga for Performance

Jess runs Yoga for Performance, working with first team premier league football players, exploring breathwork and relaxation methods. She runs group sessions as well as one-to-one lessons in order to focus on a tailored programme for each player.

Children Do Yoga Teacher Training

Jess has taught all ages, from primary school pupils to educational conferences for teachers. She is the author of Children Do Yoga and Children Do Yoga 2. These beautifully illustrated books guiding children through yoga poses can be found in various book shops and yoga studios as well as on Amazon UK. Jess has personally trained the children’s yoga teachers at The Tree of Life. She also runs yoga sessions at NQG seminars for university students training to become

teachers.

In 2015, Jess developed a children’s yoga teacher training course which is run in ten cities throughout Great Britain. Children Do Yoga teacher training (www.childrendoyoga.co.uk) is accredited by The

Complementary Medical Association and each participant is eligible to teach children following certification and DBA check. You can contact Jess about the course at cdycoursedirector@gmail.com
