From Teachers
Thank you Jen, I appreciate the passion you exude when it comes to anatomy and yoga – it's infectious and inspired me to want to learn more! - Rochelle Clark, YTT student
Jen makes difficult concepts easy to understand. Standing on our mats and working with our muscles is fun! - YTT student
Jen Wilking is awesome! So much knowledge pouring out of her! It really helped pull together how yoga affects our anatomy and how to properly align poses. I'm an "anatomy junky" because of her.

During my recent teacher training, Jen Wilking made a six hour presentation of anatomy as it pertains to yoga. Jen did a fantastic job of presenting a lot of information clearly in a short amount of time. Interspersing the asanas & relating anatomy to our own bodies really helped integrate the presentation, and made the complex (to me) information easier to absorb. - Brenn Lea Pearson, YTT student
Jen’s workshops are an amazing reference guide not only to the anatomy of the body, but to understanding the way move within yoga poses. In each session of Anatomy Club, a different section of the body is taught. She often has us get into yoga poses while learning about specific bones, muscles and tendons to better understand particular motions and joints. The information is challenging, but she breaks down the terminology so it’s easy to remember and understand. After each session, I leave feeling so happy to have a more integrated understanding and visualization of the human body. - Kayle Lamar, yoga student and teacher
I've never been a fan of the sciences yet I believe strongly in having knowledge since I workout a lot. This class finally "pinned" me down to learn! Really great job!!! I could see and hear your passion!

I like facts! It was nice to know how yoga and the body directly affect each other in a practical way. I enjoyed analyzing the poses and really thinking about what muscles and joints get worked or stretched. - YTT student
