Spring 2026🌸
To every student who practiced, learned, healed, laughed and shared space with me over the years — thank you. It has been an incredible privilege to witness your growth and to be a part of your journey and yours with mine. The community we created together has meant more to me than words can adequately express.
It’s time for a new season. With deep gratitude, I’m honoring the close of this chapter and the opening of a brand new one.
Shalom-shalom, Namaste

After much reflection, I’ve decided to close this chapter and step away from my business.
There are no riches above a sound body, and no joy above the joy of the heart.
— Ecclesiastes 30:16
What happens on the mat that leaves you better?
How is it that you can experience a mat moment, gladness and appreciation, the awareness of feeling a feeling and still able to hold forward to what has yet to transpire? When we allow ourselves an environment of time and space, joy can pull up a seat. She’d like to stay and hold hands and walk together into our next thing. We call it a practice. It’s not just making shapes with our bodies for within the shapes, within the movement of our breath, we are making space for joy.
When we meet on our mats together, our classes in community, joy pulls up a seat.

Words fail to convey the total value of yoga. It has to be experienced.
— B.K.S. Iyenger
“Where two or three are gathered in My name, there am I among them."
— Matthew 18:20
Wake up anticipating good things to happen each and every morning for each and every day. And then pay attention.
Wake up a little earlier than you “need” to. Sit in quiet. Pray.
Connect to simple morning rituals and be grateful you get to walk without help, shower without help and dress.
Make coffee or tea and enjoy the ritual and privilege of it.
Smile.
Call a friend.
Walk in the outdoors.
Move your body. Move your spine.
Breathe fully in and breathe fully out.
All hard things pass. God is still pursuing us.
~ with love, Jill

I enjoy sharing yoga through writing as much as I enjoy teaching classes and send out newsletters a few times a month.
My hope is you find encouragement here as well as updates with good stuff happening at my little yoga studio.
For a little off the mat inspiration, just click below. Honestly, yoga only begins on the mat.
