Jess is a wonderful and extremely knowledgeable teacher who created a truly amazing experience during her yoga teacher training. Her teaching style, guest teacher selection, as well as the food and accommodation can only be described as nothing short of excellent. Jess - I'm really glad I choose your YTT program. You've done an amazing job to help me understand yoga better and make it part of my life rather than just practicing it on the mat. Thank you! - Saskia
Jess delivered, by far, the best training I've ever experienced.

Coming from law enforcement, I've been through countless courses, trainings, and selection processes, given by both private companies or the government. Jess delivered, by far, the best training I've ever experienced. Everything was perfect, from the organisation, timing, topics and the way the whole course was put together. She makes sure you feel right at home and makes everything easy and fun to understand. I could not be more grateful to have completed my 200h training with her. - Valerio

One of the best experiences of my life.

Even if I knew Jess and how amazing she is, I didn't know what to expect from this training. It ended up being one of the best experiences of my life.

We learned so much in just 200 hours.

Jess ignited a true passion for teaching yoga.

I loved the YTT! I started out unsure if I would actually want to teach, but Jess not only taught us all we needed to know, she also showed us how to teach it to others, let us practice, and ignited a true passion for teaching yoga. I’m happy to report that since graduating I’ve started teaching yoga regularly and I owe it all to Jess and her amazing YTT. - Nadine
You feel fully equipped to teach because you learn the most incredible way of sequencing.

I loved my YTT with Jess. She’s such an incredible teacher and creates a very welcoming and cozy atmosphere, it’s honestly a pleasure to learn with her. Unlike some other teachers, she has a very open and inclusive mindset. She’s not dogmatic at all, but still honors the origins and traditions of yoga with a lot of respect. The whole training is beautifully compiled, you feel fully equipped for teaching because you learn the most incredible way of sequencing and get a lot of hands-on experience and support after the training too. - Angela
I signed up for a yoga teacher training but it was so much more than that.

This 200 YTT was simply magical - way better than what I expected. I came for a yoga teacher training but it was so much more than that. You learn a lot about yourself and grow as a human. Practicing yoga with the mountain views, eating delicious food, and meeting friends from all around the world - just perfect. What an amazing experience! - Miriam
I am honoured to be one of her students.

Honestly, I couldn't ask for a better yoga teacher than Jess. She teaches with so much passion and has a huge amount of knowledge. Everything was well structured and super organised. It was amazing and I am honoured to be one of her students. - Anina

I ASKED MY GRADUATES THREE QUESTIONS:

#1 Which topic was the most valuable for you?

● Learning your sequencing approach makes planning a class so simple but so effective.

● The information about meditation was hugely beneficial for me - especially the science behind it. It’s certainly a path I want to explore in the future.

● Learning how to adapt asanas with different props and try new positions and variations.

● I had no idea about the history of yoga, so it was really interesting learning it.

● Learning about the mindbody connection and how so many things are linked together.

● Learning about how pain works was really cool.

● I really liked that we could try teaching from the very beginning.

● Planning classes using the prana vayus and elements.

● How to live yoga outside of the mat. It’s expanded the practice so much.

#2 What is the most important piece of information you’ll take with you?

● There is no perfect way to perform an asana. Each of us will have our own way of doing it according to our individual anatomy and intention.

● To have an intention for my personal practice and when I plan a class. There is so much to focus on it helps to have one specific goal or thread to follow.

● The training really highlighted how the practice is truly a personal experience and yoga should (and can) be accessible to everyone.

● Everything about yoga philosophy - I loved it.

● Yoga alignment is not black and white. There is no right or wrong, but depending on what you want to achieve, one alignment may be more optimal than another.

● Yoga is as much off the mat as is it on the mat.

● Yoga props are fun. I used to hate props and thought they were unnecessary at best and cumbersome at worst. Now I think: “Why don't they have bolsters and blankets - annoying!"

● How to sequence classes in a logical way. You were right - it takes me less than 10 minutes now.

● The sequencing module was so practical and made preparing a class so much easier (and fun).

● How to make yoga more accessible and inclusive.

● Yoga philosophy, because I could learn so much about myself during this part of the training.

#3 What was your highlight or favourite part of the training?

● The amazing bond we had as a group.

● The highlight was when I experienced all my colleagues teaching, and when I could teach myself. I was amazed by the quality of each class and how they were all so different.

● When all the parts we learned came together and the result was stunning.

● Teaching my first yoga class was an incredible feeling that I will remember forever.

● It was actually after the training finished and I realised how much of an impact it’s had on my normal life.

● I really loved the morning asana classes that were always linked to the topic we were discussing that day. That was really well planned and helped us to learn.

● Bringing all the individual things together and seeing how things connect.

● Teaching everyone the exam class - I was so scared but I loved it.
