Each session offers an opportunity to explore stillness, visualization, movement, touch, and breath. I’ve found better balance, tonality, and relationship to my physical body. Jessica encourages me to have agency over my choices and experience.
Jessica O’Keefe is a uniquely gifted teacher. I was drawn to her for a deep yoga study that values scholarship and curiosity. As a yoga teacher myself, Jessica is a master teacher whose counsel forms a touchstone for my teaching practice.
Jessica’s knowledge of the body is rooted in Bonnie Bainbridge Cohen’s Body-Mind Centering, which forms the container for her work. From this framework, she seamlessly and respectfully connects the student’s knowledge and experience with her own. Jessica welcomes curiosity, and allows for the struggle of learning new information.
I’ve taken group classes and workshops with Jessica, and have studied privately with her for 5 years. Each session offers an opportunity to explore stillness, visualization, movement, touch, and breath. I’ve found better balance, tonality, and relationship to my physical body. Jessica encourages me to have agency over my choices and experience. She is patient, especially as I ‘unlearn’ information and practices that no longer serve me. She willingly reteaches challenging concepts, finds creative ways to convey new information, and builds on concepts as they became integrated into my practice.
