While I have many options, I currently take online classes from Jacque Swearingen who has been a long standing friend and instructor. I like Zoom yoga in that I can take a class with a group or a private session.  It saves time, no driving and the cost averaging $15 per group class or a bit more for sliding scale private sessions.

Jacque is a professional caring listener who understands wellness and is experienced at recommending healthful solutions through yoga, watching Jacque care for her students has been a lesson in compassion and dedication.

Give Jacque a try.  I promise it's a step in the right direction towards luck and wellness.

I began my yoga journey at the beginning of Covid shut down. I herniated my L4-5 several years ago, then had surgery and re-herniated 5 days later. I have had severe sciatic and back pain ever since. When I started with Jacque I could barely lift my back off the ground for bridge pose. We first began with private lessons in which she made everything so basic yet so doable. I turned a corner very quickly and have been able to consistently ride my horse, versus before when it was one of the most painful things I could do. I could never explain the gratitude I have for Jacque. She continues to motivate me weekly during our private online sessions, without her I would be lost!

I can not say enough positive things about Jacque's classes. She is an amazing teacher, whose cues and helpful hints always make such a difference in really getting the most from my practice. I love how she tailors things to be accessible from beginner to advanced students. I feel so much stronger and healthier since beginning yoga with Jacque and have even found myself completely recovered from chronic pains as my body has strengthened. I had tried a few online courses before but nothing has compared to the benefits of Jacques thoughtful lessons. Try one and I promise you'll be hooked!
