I lived in the area for four years before finding the "just right" teacher and studio. Jess is both a consummate professional who comes to each class or YTT training highly prepared, experienced and skillful AND a warm, empathic teacher and leader. Highly recommended program!

My experience with Jess Purtell Yoga teacher training was truly transformational, not only professionally, but personally. As someone who lives and breathes community and creativity, I wanted a training that felt embodied, inclusive, and real. Jess delivered exactly that. What I appreciated most was how Jess encouraged us to find our voice as teachers. I left feeling more confident, grounded and clear in my purpose. The container Jess provides is safe, authentic, supportive, intelligent, and community-driven. I will encourage anyone who is interested in exploring the practice of Yoga to attend her classes and join the studio.
