Jessie Tierney

Yoga first found Jessie in college when she was lost in the daily grind and seeking deeper meaning.  Her first yoga experience was a Restorative Class in the basement of the Temple of Kriya Yoga to the sounds of Tibetan singing bowls and the slow sweet resonance of the "Om Namah Shivaya" mantra sung by her teacher.  By the end of that class, she was transformed and vowed to bring the healing and self-actualization potential she experienced to as many people as she could through yogic practices. 

She became a Certified Yoga Teacher in 2010, lived at an ashram for two years teaching yoga, meditation and pranayama to visitors and guests, and has taught yoga in studios, on horseback, and in haylofts since that time.  Seeking a better way to support her many students presenting with physical limitations, she returned to school to become a Doctor of Physical Therapy in 2016 and now incorporates yogic principles into her integrative medical practice specializing in Frequency Medicine, HeartMath and Manual Therapies in Niwot, CO.  Jessie sees herself as a bridge: her passion is drawing from the ancient practices to weave into our modern understanding of the human energy system, bringing her clients into an embodiment of their innate wholeness. Classes are heart-centered and emphasize anatomical precision and are often accompanied by healing frequencies in the form of sound or PEMF.

Jojo Patsiner

Jojo came into this world as a curious, playful and empathic Being. Always Knowing that her/our currency was Love. Then, in realizing early in life that she was Queer and it wasn’t safe to be who she was, quickly disappeared into alcohol, shutting down this energy of Love.

Today she lives this beautiful, messy, amazing Life from her Soulful self, from this innate embodiment of Love.  Jojo’s passion is to share her heart of service and Joy with you. To excavate what needs to be Re-membered and healed,  and recalibrate and come home to the vibrant Light and Love that is You.  Jojo accesses her own life journey as a Queer Sober woman, decades of experience as a Certified Facilitator of The Work of Byron Katie, Energy Codes Coaching, Multidimensional Energy Healer, Reiki Master and Clairsentient/Empath, to hold an Unconditional Loving space on your journey together in transforming generational suffering into our innate energy of Love again. 

Jennifer Maddox

Jennifer began her yoga journey in 2016 with a beginner series and instantly fell in love with the way it made her feel. In late 2017 after a 22+ year career in a corporate setting, she made the decision to complete her Teacher Training and embark on a new path.

Yoga has been instrumental in helping her navigate personal wellness challenges and carrying her through the loss of both parents. As we get older it is especially important to find meaningful practices that nourish the body and spirit, leaving us feeling stronger mentally and physically.

It is her belief that everybody and every body can benefit from yoga. You can arrive on the mat and take what you need in that moment - movement, breathwork, meditation, mindfulness, awareness, reflection, community, or connection. Jennifer approaches teaching with a heartfelt desire to give back and share with others something that has been a life changing experience for her.
