About the instructor: Jackie Elliott

I grew up in the foot hills of Mt Rainer, riding horses, climbing mountains, playing music, growing food and sleeping outside whenever possible. Our vacations were often in the San Juans, I swam all year round in those waters and got to know the orca pods well over the years.

I teach from my experience of needing and using yoga daily. I like to convey the simple yet powerful tools it gives us through subtle breath, thoughtful sequencing and themed meditation. One of the reasons I took and still take all those trainings is for structure, I need the discipline for my wobbly joints. But my background is dance, fluid, creative. I was actually a professional modern dancer and hula dancer for a short time. I think that influences my yoga style in being fluid yet steady. So I guess I would say I am a good mix of hearty old school yoga, simple and clear, mixed with a deep awareness of sequencing the poses correctly making the practice fluid and free.
Right now I am excited to take people deeper into the roots of yoga, the philosophy, the breath, helping one establish a practice for a lifetime. And I am always excited about taking yoga outside! I find connecting with nature helps us be in awe of the moment noticing the rhythms around and within. I also think taking yoga outside helps us know we can take our practice anywhere, anytime. I hope we can go on a yoga adventure together!
