“I had the privilege of working with Jessica both one-on-one and by attending several of her group classes. Her approach to yoga therapy is one that is deeply empathetic, knowledgeable and compassionate. In both our private sessions and group classes Jessica established a safe and welcoming  place. Together we set goals and developed a home practice that would help me cope with the anxiety that I was struggling with at the time. Jessica was able to guide me towards a new level of self care and introduced me to new techniques for managing anxiety that have become regular practice for me. Through our work I have found much relief.  I highly recommended Jessica to anyone who is looking to incorporate yoga therapy into their lives. The benefits are so worth it.”

“Jessica’s restorative yoga classes have become a central part of my self-care. Her teaching style resonates with me because it strikes a perfect balance between information and support. She offers helpful cues and modifications in gentle ways that deepen my own practice, rather than distract from it. She has a keen awareness of how the body is affected by various life stressors, and an extensive knowledge of restorative postures that tap into and release such stressors in truly decadent ways. Above all, Jessica maintains a relaxing and safe environment that I’ve rarely experienced elsewhere. I have learned a great deal from her about how to acknowledge and work through my own anxiety without judgment on my mat. To all my Toronto-area friends: you totally deserve a restorative session with Jessica.”

” Jessica’s classes are a great introduction to a range of techniques to help with the symptoms of anxiety and depression. These tools (such as the coherent breathing practice) have been of great benefit to me already, not just in my yoga practice, but in coping with the stresses of everyday life. Her unique and extensive experience, coupled with her incredibly warm and welcoming personality create a safe space for learning important skills while concurrently tackling the stigma of mental illness. Many thanks, Jess, for starting me down the road to a calmer mind and healthier spirit.”

“ Restorative yoga has been a truly delightful revelation to me, and a perfect addition to my health and wellness regime. The carefully and thoughtfully taught poses, which are held for long periods, help to bring me to a state of true calm. Holding the poses for longer periods increase blood flow to my muscles and joints in a way that have proven to be more useful and beneficial than any other stretching regime I have tried on my own. I feel better, think more clearly, and sleep better after each class. I look forward to many years of doing restorative yoga.
