JJ has a diverse background having studied from many traditions since
1979, most recently the teachings of Mr. T.K.V. Desikachar and his son, Kausthub Desikachar who
carry on the lineage of T. Krishnamacharya. JJ has been studying with the Desikachar's since 2003 and is currently enrolled in a 4-year Yoga Therapy program.
JJ
teaches yoga poses from the perspective of the energetic body and
staying connected to the earth energetically (being well-grounded).
She'll look at the structure of the body and what is happening with the
bones at and around each of the main energy centers (Chakras). She
Teaches how the bones move at each of these Chakras to create more
space at the joints so one can move with better freedom and release
stuck energy.
JJ has produced many yoga videos/DVDs, and a chanting CD which can be purchased on this website. She also continually makes chakra jewelry (selling her pieces at her workshops when she travels) or will make a piece to order--just ask. She
has compiled a Study Guide for Yoga Teacher Trainees for use with the
training programs. You may obtain the Study Guide from the store on this site. She is in the process of writing a book, "Yoga Therapy Through the Chakras" with Megan Sullivan and illustrations by Terry Strayer. Stay tuned for details of the book release.
