Yoga Instructors
Jennifer is a 200 hr certified Yoga Instructor based in the Philadelphia Area. She took her first yoga class in 2012 and instantly fell in love. And with continued practice, she found that yoga was a great way to combat the body aches that came with working behind a desk. Throughout her journey, Jennifer has had the privilege of learning yoga from so many gifted teachers, helping to shape her into the teacher she is today. Besides yoga, Jenn’s other passion in life is theater. She can often be found in productions in and around Montgomery county.
Sheridan Earle
Yoga movement and philosophy has been a thread through much of Sheridan’s life. She began to more fully explore the physical, mental and energetic aspects of the practice in 2014 and within a few years, it was clear that she wanted to take her studies to the next level by working to bring yoga to others. In 2016, she began her teacher training and now holds her 500-hour RYT with the Yoga Alliance.
Sheridan enjoys sharing the fun and playful side of yoga with her students, adapting classes to fit a variety of bodies, abilities and energies. She believes that by keeping our expectations of practice loose and working joyfully with our bodies, it helps to settle the mind for calmer reflection after the movement practice is complete. With that calm, joyful approach, she finds that students naturally progress in the areas that best serve them. Her favorite quote from Lao Tzu, “Nature does not hurry, yet everything is accomplished,” reminds her to be open to how her practice and her students’ practices unfold in their own time.
Alison Babula
Alison is an occupational therapist specializing in the upper extremity and became a power flow yoga instructor to inform her practice as well as gain flexibility and a little more “zen” in this crazy world. She is a former high school and college cheerleader, a runner (5k, 10k, 1/2 marathons) and has completed 4 sprint triathlons. Alison came to love the intensity and fire that power yoga builds and finds these work outs just as impactful and beneficial for the other activities she enjoys. Alison loves the personal goals that yoga brings to her life and the mantra “It is yoga practice, not yoga perfect”.
