A lifelong student and practitioner of meditation, mindfulness and yoga, Jenna was born to two devotees of the Siddha Yoga spiritual path and was introduced to spiritual practice and visits to an ashram in Ganeshpuri, India while still in the womb. She participated in A Year of Living Mindfully, a year-long program of community spiritual practice with Insight Meditation Community of Washington (IMCW) lead teacher Jonathan Foust, has completed a 200-hour training with Flow Yoga Center in Washington, DC, several trainings with Simon Park as well as Shiva Rea, and a 300-hour yoga teacher training through Flow Yoga and The Daily Vinyasa. Some of her most influential and beloved teachers are Tara Brach, Pema Chodron, Hugh Byrne, Jon Kabat-Zinn, Dr Bessel Van Der Kolk, Thich Nhat Hanh, Shiva Rea, Simon Park, Fungi, and Mother Nature. She loves teaching the practices of mindfulness and compassion, and seeing the resulting insight, expansive sense of freedom, wellness, choice, clarity and the ever-deepening experience of love, gratitude and acceptance that these practices offer. 

 

Her unique combination of rigorous training across a wide breadth of both scientific and esoteric areas of study has given her the unique ability to understand the intersectionality of these fields of study, as well as an understanding of how the application of that intersection can be used in a plethora of healing modalities. She possesses the rare ability to blend the spiritual with the biochemical, the psychological with the physical, the scientific with the intuitive, and the energetic with the three dimensional. Jenna’s great passion is to weave together physical as well as emotional, psychological and spiritual wellness practices in order to assist her students and client’s in finding the greatest possible expression of health, joy and peace, and an experience of being truly resourced and whole.
