Jessica Flowers
Jessica started at Perennial as a participant in the Circle of Sacred Activism and began her 200 hr yoga teacher training with us in the fall of 2019. Shortly thereafter she started working at the front desk and is now our membership manager. She loves to learn and since doing her YTT with us, she has also completed an additional 500 hrs in teacher training through My Vinyasa Practice with certifications in Yin, Restorative, Adaptive, Nidra, and Trauma Informed yoga. She teaches Yin, Nidra, Gentle and Beginner Flow yoga at Perennial and Princeton Club. Jessica is a nutritional scientist and former dietitian, so she really loves being involved in getting nutritious foods into more households. When she's not at the front desk, you might find her back in the kitchen. Like so many of you, yoga has had a profound impact on her health and healing. This inspires Jessica to get as many people practicing yoga as possible making her eager to support you. Jessica lives in Fitchburg with her husband, daughter, two cats, and two dogs. While she doesn't own horses, she and her daughter work together doing chores at a local horse farm and they both enjoy riding. Let Jessica know about any membership needs you have either in person or by contacting her at membership@perennial-yoga.com.
Jessica Flowers instructs the following:
- FITCHBURG | GROUND | YIN & NIDRA
- MADISON | GROUND | YIN
- FITCHBURG | GROUND | YOGA RX
GROUND | YIN & NIDRA takes you through 45 minutes of Yin followed by 30 minutes of a Nidra practice. Yin yoga focuses primarily on the connective tissue and its unique role in the human body. Connective tissue pervades the entire human body from skin to the smallest cell. A series of deep, long-held postures stimulates growth and function of the tissues, leaving your body feeling refreshed and energized. This divine inner practice balances your energetic system, increases flexibility, and provides time for deep contemplation and reflection. The practice of Yoga Nidra or “Yogic Sleep” is a systematic meditation technique used to induce complete physical, mental and emotional relaxation. Nidra includes a guided meditation, breath work and visualization. This class is appropriate for beginners as well as those with an established practice.
**All MADISON classes take place at our location in the Garver Feed Mill (3241 Garver Green, Madison) - NOT at E. Cheryl Pkwy**
