Jeannie Podest

Jeannie’s journey to her yoga mat began many years ago, mainly as a compliment to running, spin classes and cross training for the countless triathlon and athletic events that she was always preparing for. Over time, she learned that practicing yoga was so much more than the physical, and began to experience the spiritual, mental and emotional benefits of the practice as well. After visiting and practicing at various yoga studios in the NY/NJ area, she began to dive deeper into the principles of yoga and the various types of classes that were offered. She had no idea that her renewed commitment to her practice would become as transformative as it has been and would change her life forever.Jeannie completed her 200 hour teacher training at Flow Yoga and immediately began teaching. She also holds her Yoga Alliance certification and her main objective when inviting anyone into her class, is to let each student know, that wherever they are in their practice, is absolutely perfect. Whether you are new or are a seasoned yogi, regardless of age, gender, experience or background, all you need when you come on to your mat is your breath and an open heart. If there is one thing that Jeannie would like to offer to her students, it would be the invitation to accept yourself exactly where you are in life and to stay open to all of the possibilities that yoga can offer. She is endlessly grateful to her family and close friends who have lovingly supported her on her path to teaching yoga and looks forward to sharing this beautiful practice with all future students.
