Jen did a great job working in my classroom this year with students in need of intensive behavioral support. Jen worked with the kids with careful consideration of their skill level and the learning and behavioral struggles and met the students where they were at each session. Thanks for all of your help this year Jen.
Thanks Mike,
I will miss the twice week practice with these amazing kids. I loved that they would do yoga at 9,10,11 and how their practice grew!
Jennifer does Yoga in my K-2 classroom twice weekly. My classroom is for emotionally and behaviorally challenged children. Most of the children have suffered trauma. It is a challenging class to say the least. Jennifer exhibits a calm, and friendly demeanor. She is constantly adjusting her language while demonstrating and instructing my class in poses or imagery. She uses language that children relate to (super heroes, gaming characters) to keep them engaged, especially when she is introducing something new. Her presence has been an asset to my classroom.
Thank you Cheryl!
I love being in your class. Kids are wiggly, active, and challenging.
They test my ability to stay present, focused and loving for all that they bring!
Thanks for letting me join your classroom!!

Jen was very welcoming and reassuring from the start. She led us through gentle movements and poses while she consistently offered us verbal cues and questions to encourage us to focus and accept our whole experience in that present moment. I especially liked that she made room for tension and relaxation, clarity and mystery, striving and being, and said that there was room for all of it.
Namaste Cary,
I am glad that the slow flow class landed with you in a way that served
your yoga experience. The questions seemed to highlight your experience and
you showed up for all of it! Thanks for sharing with the yoga community!
Peace to you today and all days,
Jen
In 2011, I went on a yoga retreat to Mexico led by Jennifer Degen. Going on this retreat was a way to reconnect with my sanity and health. Since this first connection, I have kept a weekly yoga practice. I have since travelled twice to Mexico and this year we went to Costa Rica. Jennifer Degen has inspired me and created an authentic retreat experience which has allowed me to reconnect with my innate wisdom, strength and self. I am looking forward to another retreat to Guatemala led by Jennifer Degen in January 2016. I could go on about the many experiences and friendships that developed during our yoga retreats, new capabilities, a new personal mantra, new perspectives and new approaches to everything.
Peace to you dear friend journeying through the yoga experiences
and witnessing your path is a great honor and joy in my life.
Namaste,
Jen
Jen is an empowered educator. Jen provides a safe, nurturing, class environment. The theme based classes provide students an opportunity to embody mindfulness, peace and calming
techniques in class that will be incorporated into their daily lives. Experiencing Jen's classes can be truly life changing.
Peace and Calm to you my fellow teacher! Embodying mindfulness practices together is a great pleasure and together we can be of service to ourselves and others. It is a great support to my journey as a teacher to know that the class is in service to you and others on and off the mat.
Peace,
Jen
I enjoyed your class! Liked the longer shivasana:-)
