Fun Facts about Jenny

Certifications:

I am a Certified Personal Trainer, Certified Precision Nutrition Certificate Level 1, and I have a BN in Kinesiology.

Favorite Pose & Why:

Tree pose in half lotus is one of my favorite poses. I like that there are different ways to progress in this posture and ways to see how much your body is learning and adapting to each progression.

Favorite Way to De-Stress:

My favorite way to de-stress would be to workout or to go for a run on the treadmill. If I am not in the gym, I love being outdoors doing activities.

Favorite Essential Oils & Use:

I really enjoy the citrus essential oils sweet orange & lemon for their smell and energizing effects.

When I'm Not On My Mat or Teaching:

I enjoy getting strength training sessions in for myself when I’m not teaching. I love hanging out with my children and puppies at home outside or in the pool. I also enjoy watching reality TV shows or trash TV (when the kids are in bed!)

What yoga has done for me:

I wasn’t always one to do yoga or stretching in general, even though I preach this to my clients. But after finding hot yoga, I found a way to get a great stretch in while also getting a detoxing sweat on. I feel my mobility and flexibility getting better with every class!
