Jennifer Tod Yoga

Current Schedule: Vinyasa Yoga 6-7:15 PM Tuesdays

Jennifer was the kid who always got hit in the face with the ball in gym class. She was never much good at sports and was convinced that she was an anatomical disaster until she first stepped onto a yoga mat in 2009 and found that there really was a physical activity at which she excelled. Initially, she practiced because she hated all other forms of exercise, but she wanted to lose weight. But after a while, she began to notice changes not only in her body, but also in her mind and spirit. Clearly, yoga was not just about gaining muscle mass or burning fat; it was a way of life, and it transformed her so much both inside and out that she decided it was time to teach it and share it with others.

Jennifer is a graduate of Marni Task's 200 hour Jivasara training program in Cleveland, Ohio. She is inspired by the physical, emotional, and spiritual aspects of the Jivamukti and Anusara yoga movements. If you come to her class, expect to focus on bodily alignment and to take your time getting the most out of each asana. She also peppers her classes with the occasional yogic words of wisdom that she has learned from the yogis who came before her, and encourages students to participate in the primordial power of the Om.

Currently, she teaches a weekly vinyasa class at the Liberty Center Public Library.
