Joanna is a 500hr Experienced Registered Yoga Teacher and completed her trainings with Your Yoga Flow (formerly Yogacara Global). The 200hr Hatha and Vinyasa training was in Whistler in March 2015 and an additional 300hr training was in Bali in April 2017. She also completed a 50hr Yin Yoga certification with Bernie Clark at Semperviva in May 2016. She teaches in community spaces and yoga studios in Coquitlam, Canada, as well as hosting workshops and retreats. More recently Joanna has started an online platform, offering classes and yoga series as well as LIVE classes. Joanna's classes are inclusive and cultivate first and foremost a space for grounding. She strives to establish a sense of balance in the body through the concept of Sthira and Sukha, strength and ease. Joanna's personal practice and teaching is slow and mindful, giving time to curiously learn from the body and the breath in each pose and transition without rushing to what is next. The creation of such a space gives the practitioner the opportunity to linger, to develop a deep awareness of their own bodies and to recognize that they truly are their own best teacher and guide as they delve inwards. Joanna is passionate to share what she is learning on her own yoga journey and truly believe that time spent on our mats creates a beautiful ripple effect out into the world.
