How long have you practiced yoga?
Jenna taking Lauren’s online prenatal yoga class during the height of the covid-19 pandemic.
Yoga has been a part of my life for over 12 years (where does the time go?!) - I originally started practicing yoga when learning to manage chronic pain from endometriosis. Coming to the mat felt like coming home - it brought such incredible pain relief and also helped me grow in confidence and love for my body and its abilities.
Fast forward a few years, I was working at an arts center in El Salvador and got assigned the “yoga teacher by default” since there was no one trained in yoga in the town where I lived. Through moving together my students became my friends, and I am forever grateful for everything they taught me about Spanish, yoga, and community. I went on to get trained as a yoga teacher at Asheville Yoga Center and so my teaching journey began!
How has yoga supported your own parenting journey?
Becoming pregnant was a rocky road for me at times, and soon after becoming pregnant with my son the pandemic started! Yoga continued to be a place of calm and connection for me in that isolating time both pregnant and postpartum. I especially looked forward to my weekly classes with Alexandra and Lauren, where I could experience moving together with other humans in a similar stage in life. I loved it so much I got certified in prenatal/postnatal yoga! I am so excited and honored to be a part of the Whole Mama Yoga Collective.
Tell us about your work outside of yoga.
In addition to yoga, I am a licensed clinical social worker specializing in perinatal and maternal mental health. I believe very much in the power of mindful movement and its role in our collective and individual healing journeys. Currently I hold monthly pandemic parent support groups through my support group and yoga business, River Flow Collective Healing.
