About Jacquie

Yoga Instructor, Newburgh Yoga Shala

Student to Teacher Journey

I started practicing yoga in 2002 when I signed up for a PE yoga class. I immediately felt most at home (in life) practicing yoga, and later meditation. I've completed trainings with the Brooklyn Yoga School (where my understanding of yoga and its influence on my life blossomed beyond the asana practice to more of a happiness practice) and The Shala (where I met Bibi!). 

I have held the role of yoga teacher for over 10 years now, and along the way added meditation guide. I also teach mindfulness at Google.

Teaching Style & Influences

Currently, I’m most interested in the intersection of mindfulness and racial justice. I’ve been blessed to learn from and be inspired by many, many great guides, mentors, and teachers, and I’m humbly eager to share what’s been shared with me.
