2024 Hiatus!

I am on hiatus from teaching yoga classes, focusing my energy on my mom’s journey through stage IV cancer, clinical trials, and treatment options, and my professional/career path. I will be taking time off teaching regular weekly evening classes, but will still hold pop-up classes virtually, when possible! I am grateful for each one of you showing up to practice, and I will always be here for you, in all ways! Please follow instagram story for class times and schedule as you typically would. I appreciate all of the support from this YOGA COMMUNITY.

I will continue to teach yoga events and take individual clients, as schedule permits. Please see details here: Events & Special Occasions , Private Sessions

Thank you and much LOVE always, Jess

“Power Yoga is for everyBODY. Power because we are empowered to show up and do the work. You don’t need to be flexible, or to look a certain way, or even to know what to do. All you need is a willingness to step on your mat and practice. If you do, goodness will follow.”

— Jessica Ackerman, MS,CCC-SLP, RYT
