Once in a while a yoga teacher develops with unusual skill, great sensitivity, and an appetite for going deep. Jess is that teacher. She teaches yoga with much resource from ancient teachings and an awareness of modern psychology including the wreckage from trauma. Taking a yoga class from Jess one can expect a rigorous and sensitive experience that might include well sequenced asana, some pranayama and even focus on mudras. At the end of her classes Savasana is capped with rich harmonium accompanied mantra chanting. Jess has a powerful voice.

As a person drawn to serving the needs of all people, Jess engages well with her students and friends. She has taken the role as a teacher of teachers during several teacher trainings. In her non yoga teaching activities, Jess gravitates toward personal coaching and helping people with issues of trauma, addiction, and mental health.

If the opportunity presents itself, don’t miss a chance to practice yoga with Jess.

Practicing yoga with Jessica has been a transformative experience for me. Her use of the Harmonium brings a unique and soothing element to each session, creating an atmosphere of harmony and peace. From the moment you step onto your mat, Jessica meets you exactly where you are, offering guidance with love and acceptance.

Her teaching goes beyond the physical postures, deeply rooted in the spiritual aspects of yoga while also emphasizing the myriad ways the practice can nourish your soul, heal your body, and support you through life’s highs and lows. Whether you are experiencing joy, sadness, or anxiety, Jessica’s compassionate and holistic approach helps you navigate these emotions with grace and mindfulness.

I have found her classes to be a sanctuary where I can connect with myself, find balance, and cultivate inner strength. Jessica truly understands the profound impact yoga can have on every aspect of life, and I am grateful for the wisdom and serenity she brings to her teaching. Her classes are a gift, and I feel blessed to be part of her yoga community.

Prepare for movement, in EVERY sense: 

 
From how she readies the room (the ultimate act of hospitality) to her profound ability to instruct and inspire, teaching is Jess’ ART and her passion.  Starting with a story/fable/reading to set the tone and focus intention, you’re in for a solid physical practice (concentrating on form, fun and flow), followed by some serious mind/spirit nourishment.  Acute in her grace, relentless in her wisdom, gifted in song, you’re in for something rare, real and truly meaningful – no routines here, rather, a shift in experience…

Jess is one of those special people that you trust while doing things out of your comfort zone in both the physical and mental aspects.  She is one hundred percent authentic in her practice off and on the yoga mat.  One thing I love about her teaching style is that every single class/workshop I attended with her, I could tell she was in her element… her state of “flow”.  What she offers is more than a set of instruction on poses (which is always on point) – she offers a genuine look into the work that goes into self exploration, growth, and disciplined practice.  

I highly recommend Jess for work quality, professionalism, responsiveness, value, and integrity.

When walking into one of Jess’ classes, you are immediately greeted with a smile and open arms.  The room oozes with love and peace as she creates a safe and sacred place for you to practice.  Her flows allow you to discover your inner strength physically and mentally.  As you move into svasana, you are transported to a higher frequency as she serenades you with Kirtan enchantment.  You can feel the vibrations coursing through you and suddenly you are the only person in the room.  Jess has an innate ability to provide whatever you are searching for as you come onto your mat.  Her classes have brought out an array of emotions in me: pride, goddess strength, power, love, safety, peace, tears, and happiness.  Jess is experienced, well educated, talented, and a wealth of information on many intangible and divine entities and rituals.  I feel blessed that I have been able to be a student to this tremendous teacher and human.

I was intrigued when I first learned of  Jess’ upcoming Full Moon – Super Moon Flow Workshop. I immediately registered without really knowing what to expect. Jess has a certain contagious positive energy and it translated into the workshop. Jess had the participants place our yoga mats to form an intimate circle.  Jess provided all of the materials and during the next 2 hours I learned about setting an intention, writing it down and also meditating on this intention. I learned about cleansing negative energy with palo santo wood and I also learned about using essential oils, and various quartz crystals. Jess also led us through a heat building flow. The magical workshop ended with everyone going outside into the cool night air to view the beautiful Super Moon perched above the yoga studio. I hope to attend another workshop again with Jess and I would definitely recommend attending one of her classes or workshops if you have the opportunity!

Jessica’s yoga/kirtan class is powerful, energizing,  empowering. YOU will connect with your center, your power. Jess is real, authentic, honest, clear, and powerful, and she gives you all that good stuff too. GO and enjoy!

I had the honor of taking a class with Jess at Ocean Park on Martha’s Vineyard. Her beautiful spirit guided us through our practice with calm and confident cues. She offers a variety of options so that all can feel comfortable in their practice. The entire experience was magical: the wind gently blowing, the sun shining and Jess guiding us from one pose to the next. At the end of the practice as we rested, she sang with a beautiful voice accompanied by a wonderful musical instrument that looked like a cross between an accordion and a keyboard. Thank you for a great way to start the day! Kat from Randolph, MA

Jess’ classes are the perfect blend of relaxation and strength. She leads with grace, accommodates all levels, and always includes an extra special touch (literally!) of supportive assists. After taking her studio class, I knew she’d be the perfect instructor to lead our first in-office yoga event. She catered to a range of abilities and taught a gentle flow that was custom to our needs (ending with a guided meditation). She took the time to visit the office beforehand so the day-of was a breeze. Jess provided music, essential oils, and a sound bowl for meditation. The event was a huge success and everyone is looking forward to the next class!
