Based in Montréal, Jeanne is one of those yoga teachers who enriches her students’ practice by making it safer, more interesting and more challenging. During her studies in dance, she adopted yoga as a way to reconnect with her body and take care of old injuries. In 2001, she took her first teacher training course, a basic training based in the Ashtanga practice which she appreciated for its athleticism. After her certification she began teaching in gyms and small studios around the city.

 

Since then she has continued to study with some of the most senior teachers, taking her practice and teaching to a deeper level based more in restorative and using her own experiences with injuries to explore how trauma affects the body. One of her biggest influences is her teacher Hart Lazar in Montréal.

 

In 2010 Jeanne became a partner at Ashtanga Yoga Montréal where she gave regular classes and took part in the yearly teacher trainings. In 2017, she became sole owner of the studio and has worked relentlessly to build a community of inspiring teachers and dedicated students. 

 

As a business owner, Jeanne developed the skills required to run a studio as well as developing exciting workshops, inviting guest teachers, offering a yearly teacher training, organizing fundraiser, and so much more. Renamed AYM in 2019, under Jeanne the studio has earned the respect of the yoga community and, to her delight, has become a gathering place for yogis of all stripes, from enthusiastic beginners to the most seasoned advanced students.

 

On a personal note, in 2018, Jeanne was found to have ovarian cancer which resulted in a radical hysterectomy. She credits her years of practice and hyper-awareness of her body with protecting her and providing her with the tools to make a complete recovery. 

 

She pursues her yoga studies to this day, testing out new dimensions and explorations with her own practice before bringing them to her students. Her greatest passion remains teaching and by connecting with her students she strives to help them understand their own bodies so they can be their best selves both on and off the mat.
