Coming to yoga as a 50 year old with an “I’m allergic to exercise” and “I’ll sleep when I die” mentality I never dreamed that practicing yoga with Jackie would become such a passion and integral part of my life. I decided after watching my parents bodies failing them that it was time to double down on my healthy body to preserve and improve on my vitality and mobility. Jackie was the perfect guide for my yoga practice, never skipping a step, by incorporating breathing, proper form, the encouragement to take my body further than I realized I had strength for, to slow me down and let my mind and body connect in way that spurred real growth in many ways. I’ve never been in better shape in my life in my mind, body and spirit and I owe that to yoga.

As a practicing Nurse and wellness proponent, Paula teaches with a soothing vernacular and gives educated explanations of physiology and how your body works. She constantly helps her student to focus, relax, and allow themselves to take a realistic yoga journey under her guidance. She chooses soothing yet veracious readings to wrap up class on a thoughtful and positive note and offers creative and focused flows that challenge every level. It is a practice with a purpose that elevates. In my 20 years of practice, Paula is by far one of the most educated, passionate, and giving teachers I have ever had, and I am lucky to know her.

I look forward to taking Jackie’s class each week! Her flows are ever evolving and keep class fun! With some classes you know what to expect and it can become boring. But not with Jackie’s class! You are forced to be present and there is no time to think about other things, which I love. Thank you Jackie for keeping me grounded!!!

Whenever I see Paula’s name on the schedule I do whatever I can to get to her class. Ive been practicing yoga for more than 10 years and she is by far one of my favorite teachers. Her classes are unique, challenging, and always make me feel amazing when I leave. I would recommend Paula to anyone, whether trying yoga for the first time or to a seasoned yogi. You will never be disappointed.

I started my yoga practice a little over 6 years ago, and in the past 6 years I have had many yoga teachers. I can safely say I have never had a better teachers than Paula. She has an amazing demeanor and teaching style that is unmatched. Her classes are not only restorative to the body but are meditative for the mind. I always leave her classes feeling relaxed and calm; I feel like I have exercised not only my body but my soul. It is obvious that she is well practiced, prepares for her classes, and adapts to the students in her class and seems to connect with everyone. If you have not taken one of her classes, I highly recommend it!
