Jessica teaches Ashtānga Vinyāsa, Restorative Yoga & a unique intuition-led technique, focusing on much more than the physical practice (Āsanā) & includes breathing techniques (Prānāyāma) & meditation in all her classes. Her methods support students to accept where they find themselves, assist them to progress along their own unique path & reconnect them with their inner Guru. She uses variations to ensure students are safe, but appropriately challenged.

Anchored in the Ashtānga tradition – with gratitude for the wisdom & teachers that came before her – Jessica began practicing Yoga in 2001 & fell so deeply in love with the discipline, she now teaches private, group & corporate classes in order to share its gifts. Her more focused learning was born under the tutelage of Gregor Maehle and Monica Gauci, commencing in 2016, where she realised the invaluable benefits of the teacher/student relationship. She now wants to share this with you.

Jessica holds a degree in Psychology, undertook Vipassana in the Indian Himalaya in 2004 & was initiated into Shambhavi Mahamudra by Sadhguru at the conclusion of his Inner Engineering Program in 2024. She also worked with the High Commission of India, Canberra as lead demonstrator for the 5th International Day of Yoga 2019 celebration.

TESTIMONIALS:

‘Jess’s inspiring, insightful, challenging, kind and humbling attitude deeply moves me. Thank you for aiding my learning and enriching my practice. I greatly value your guidance and your generosity in sharing yourself is contributing to making the world a better place.’ – Mitch, Crescent Head, NSW

“It has been several years since I attended yoga classes regularly. I hadn’t found a teacher or a class that resonated with me until I attended Jess’s classes a few months ago. Since then, I have been re-inspired to practise yoga daily and attend Jess’s classes twice a week.

Jess’s teachings have re-acquainted me with breathing practises, facilitated a more heightened awareness of my energy, and has encouraged me to move my body gently.

In the last couple of years, I became a mother and my energy, body, and lifestyle have changed significantly. I am grateful for Jess’s knowledge and ability to modify her teachings to accommodate where I am at. I feel safe and considered in each of her classes. Since practising with Jess, I am reminded about the physical, emotional, spiritual and energetic wellness and expansion one can experience.

Jess is a professional, knowledgeable, thoughtful, personable, gentle and kind yoga teacher. Thank you Jess x” – Indi, NSW

“Jess has been a wonderful yoga teacher. Very patient and calming. She really focuses on supporting individuals to progress at their own pace. Also really found her guided breath work and meditation beneficial.” – Alana, Canberra

‘I’ve been lucky enough to have participated in many self-care practices all around the world and I feel blessed to have met Jess back home here in Australia. Jess has such an open heart, channeling the most beautiful energy that flows through her and into all who are lucky enough to share in her classes, ceremonies or workshops.

With ease and grace she gently shares her vast knowledge of spiritual growth techniques with personal astrology perspectives that have consistently left me feeling lighter, clearer and more open to the world around me.’
