About the instructor: Jinnene Foster
My yoga teaching is grounded in an extensive knowledge of asana practice across a variety of yogic methods and styles, including Hatha, Yin, Bikram, and Baptiste. Adopting a student-centered approach to teaching from a compassionate place has allowed me to empower others to find and express their authentic selves. In my classes and private sessions, one can expect to find long posture holds for strength building, as well as fun, dynamic movements to invigorate heat and a passion for learning about heart, mind, and body boundaries in a steady, methodical way.
