About our presenter:
Jessica Martini's classes are about compassionate challenge. She first met yoga 7 years ago for the physical benefits, but quickly realized the emotional and mental benefits she received from it as well. She realized that she could be both strong and kind, powerful and soft, full of effort and also ease. For Jessica, the true practice has always been taking what is learned on the mat, off the mat, into oneself, and out into the world.
Jessica, BA, CYT 500, has practiced yoga for 10 years and has taught over 2000 hours of classes. She has practiced a variety of yoga modalities, including Hatha, Vinyasa, Therapeutic, Kundalini, Yin, and Restorative yoga, making her a well-rounded, capable instructor. Her classes are purposeful, uplifting, and educational, with a strong focus on building stability in order to create mobility. She also loves sprinkling in little doses of humor from time to time, just to remind us to find balance in all things.
Outside of yoga, Jessica is a full-time real estate agent, wife, and mother of two fur babies, Baxter and Brin. In her free time she enjoys cycling and weight lifting, cooking, reading, and being outdoors on sunny days. She welcomes you to class.
