Jimmy Lou

Teacher

When I first started practicing yoga, I recall being so intimidated by the acrobats around me that I was convinced it wasn’t for me. It took years of stumbling in classes and encouragement from wonderful teachers to finally find comfort in my practice. Over time, I have come to appreciate the benefits of incorporating mindful movements, self-compassion, and gentle presence into my daily life. It brings me so much joy to learn and share yoga with others now as a teacher. In our sessions, I will encourage you to connect with your breath, cultivate presence, and listen to your body. Off the mat, I’m a keen civil servant and love poetry (especially M. Angelou, W. Szymborska, Chuang Tzu), rowing, and dancing (badly, a la Paul Rudd).
