Janna's first yoga experience was a hatha class at college in 1988. She found the practice of  yoga to be a beautiful way  to feel a deeper connection with herself, and with the rhythms of nature, and she has been practicing ever since. Called to teaching, she delights in creating a safe space for others to experience the power and grace of yoga.

Classes with Janna invite a joyful opening in body, mind, and heart. Her style combines a playful passion for the practice with a strong understanding of universal alignment principles, as taught by John Friend, founder of Anusara Yoga. She is currently registered as an Anusara-Inspired teacher.

Janna is deeply grateful to John Friend, and to her main teacher, Ulrika Engman, for their inspiration and guidance on the yoga path. 

Along with offering on-going public classes, prenatal classes, mom and baby classes, and yoga retreats, Janna also brings yoga to children in schools all over Marin County. She is a Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT) with Yoga Alliance, as well as a Certified Childbirth Educator (CBE) with ALACE (Association of Labor Support and Childbirth Educators).
