introducing our Yoga Teachers

~ Note to Self ~

"What is my purpose in life?" I asked the void.

"What if I told you that you fulfilled it when

you took an extra hour to talk to that kid about his life?" said the voice.

"Or when you paid for that young couple in the restaurant? Or when you saved that dog in traffic? Or when you tied your father's shoes for him?"

"Your problem is that you equate your purpose with goal-based achievement. The Universe isn't interested in your achievements... just your heart. When you choose to act out of kindness, compassion and love, you are already aligned with your true purpose.

No need to look any further!!"

I'm a certified instructor with expertise in yoga, strength and development, HIIT training, electro muscle stimulation, cycle, and Pilates. As a breast cancer survivor currently navigating osteopenia, I am passionate about empowering others on their health journeys and am working on a 12-week program to reverse osteopenia and prevent osteoporosis. I love inspiring hope and fostering healing, not only through exercise but also by offering genuine listening, love, and support. Determined to help others thrive, I work to bring a holistic approach to wellness. Outside the gym, I enjoy spending time with my supportive husband and our two busy daughters, ages 11 and 8, who are active in dance and cheerleading. My family loves to travel, and I'm always expanding my knowledge in health and wellness to better serve my clients.

I am a certified E-RYT 200 yoga instructor.  I found yoga 15 years ago after a hip flexor running injury.  My first Vinyasa class was magic, I was hooked immediately!  I truly believe yoga is for everyBODY.  My offerings weave creative movement, music and connection to self in a supportive community.  When I am not on my mat I am wearing the hats of a dance mom, teenage chauffer driver and interior designer.  I would love to see you in studio soon... let's flow!

Hi there! I’m Jenn Baker, a RYT200 yoga instructor and certified sound practitioner. My passion is in creating a space for others to reclaim their inner balance. Yoga is an integral part of my wellbeing, helping to combat the daily stresses of life. I’ve spent the last few years delving deeper into the therapeutic benefits of sound and how frequencies and vibrations can help to reduce stress and anxiety. When not on my mat, you can find me enjoying the outdoors, golfing, or bringing zen to the parents at the hockey rink!

Yoga is a huge part of my life. It grounds me and makes me stronger both physically and emotionally. My classes are created for you, in order to share what I’ve learned and love, to help you to become more fearless and flexible in life and within your practice. I seek for you to thrive in life by nurturing your body and mind by integrating breath to help you find peace within (along with wiping the sweat off your mat :)

I am a mother of an amazing son, Mason, who is back at college and two golden doodles, Bentley, 3-1/2 years old and Mercedes, 3 years old. The doodles keep me very busy and luckily I’m able to shut the door for my yoga practice, otherwise I would be practicing doodle yoga—wait, could that be a thing? Maybe that’s something we all could talk about, lol!

My journey with yoga began over 14 years ago when I suffered from chronic neck pain. What started as a method to alleviate discomfort evolved into a transformative practice that reshaped how I feel about myself. 

Through yoga, I've found my voice and have developed a more confident personal presence.

In the fall of 2022, I completed a 200-hour yoga teacher certification, and since then, I've taught over 200 classes and had the privilege of taking two yoga teaching vacations to Mexico (which was great, as I love to travel.) 

My teaching philosophy centers on creating an inclusive space where students feel empowered to make choices that honor their bodies while pushing themselves to grow stronger. I believe in the power of yoga to enhance well-being, reduce pain, and improve overall wellness. My goal is to guide students on a path where they feel better both physically and mentally through regular yoga practice.

I'm a board certified athletic trainer, personal trainer, injury prevention specialist, ergonomic assessment specialist, reiki practitioner, IIN holistic health coach, mindfulness educator AND a yoga teacher. My goal is to meet my clients where they are at and help promote sustainable habit changes, not quick fixes. I love seeing my clients trust their bodies and move confidently throughout their daily lives and hobbies. 

I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Athletic Training from Springfield College and got my personal training certification through NASM.  I've worked as an Injury Prevention Specialist for Fortune 500 companies to assist them in reducing their injury rates and implement site wide injury prevention and ergonomic programs.  I emphasize stability, strength and joint health as it's important to support our bodies for sustainable pain free activities.  

I've lived in NY, MA, a RV, ID and now CO. When I was 22, I was diagnosed with an autoimmune disease that was a major source of inspiration to take my healing into my own hands and live a life that felt more aligned with my body. 

In my free time you I'm hiking mountains with my husband and border collie, training for trail half marathons, reading, sitting around a campfire, or looking for the best chai lattes in Colorado.
