ABOUT ME
HI I’M JONELLE!
I'm a yoga teacher & practitioner, mentor & teacher trainer. I'm obsessed with movement & spiritual studies which makes me an eternal student. I've lived in London for over 20 years but originally from Philly. I've been teaching yoga for over 5 years & practicing for over 15 years.
My other major role is being a mother to my 15 year old daughter Francesca. I started practicing yoga when I was pregnant with my daughter as a way to connect to my body and to her. My biggest teacher is my daughter.
I teach and practice yoga as part of my path to awakening and healing and invite my students to do the same.
I believe people need to see themselves and it is my aim to help facilitate that for people through yoga, meditation & ritual.
It gives me much joy to help my students on their path of whatever they have come to yoga to accomplish. We journey together side by side on this path teaching and learning from each other.
The connection yoga gives us to our bodies, to our breath, to the present moment is so powerful. This power helps me to connect to my dharma/my purpose. My purpose is to liberate myself so I can inspire and help others to do it for themselves. I fundamentally believe in my core we all deserve to be happy and free. The practice of yoga is key in me experiencing that happiness & freedom.
