About Asteya Yogi
Jessica has been practicing yoga since 2013 after her orthopedic doctor recommended the practice to her in lieu of spinal surgery for scoliosis. From her first yoga class, Jessica became aware of how much stress she held in the body and the need for mindful breath. The liberation provided by mindful breathing in combination with practicing asanas was the healing fix that put her on her yoga journey.
In order to dive deeper into yoga, in 2017 Jessica received her RYT 200 from Lex Gillan at the Institute for Spirituality and Health (ISH) at the Texas medical center. She also completed in person Yin Yoga training with Bernie Clark and Diana Batts in Vancouver British Colombia.
Classes can be relaxing yet challenging at times. She incorporates mindful meditation and breathing exercises to help guide students to focus on their present moment to assist in strengthening their overall practice.
