Jenna found yoga to be an enlightening practice compared to the rigorous gymnastics training that she was used to. Even though she has always been athletic, it wasn't until her first years of college that she found deep solace in Yoga and meditation. She began sharing her passion for yoga by teaching friends and family in the comfort of her home and backyard. Jenna dropped everything on her agenda one summer to achieve her 200 hour yoga teacher training.

Her biggest yoga philosophy is that we are all beginners. She believes it is very important that we always remember that there is always room for improvement because it is not about the destination... it is about the journey. Jenna's yoga classes begin with a casual, inspirational dharma talk that can relate to anything from everyday mundane life, to chakras, to nature, to physics and chemistry! She then leads the class into a breathing exercise and guided meditation followed by a Yoga Flow that is made to accommodate every type of Yogi!

Jenna started her own small business called Sol Seed in 2016 and is continuing to expand on her natural self-care products and original jewelry right in Greenwood Lake today! She loves living and being part of this small-town with a big community.
