The Teacher

A multi-disciplinary teachers’ teacher, Jess Rose has been leading trainings, workshops, and classes all over the world for more than a decade.
To get a feeling for what an YTT with me will be and feel like, check this gallery of past events.
Since stepping into the online yoga scene with her 30 Day Yoga Program, taken by more than 75,000 yogis worldwide, she has gone on to share her love of yoga with students in the United States, Germany, Morocco, Mexico, Spain, Italy, and Thailand.
In the yoga community, Jess is known for her knowledge and clarity as an online and in-person yoga trainer with a focus on alignment and philosophical class themes. She has filmed vast libraries of yoga and meditation courses for doyouyoga, yogiapproved and Jess Rose Yoga.
Jess’ teachings can be found online in various forms such as podcasts, yoga conferences, and health websites such as San Francisco Yoga Magazine, Elephant Journal, The Yoga Teacher Resource Podcast, and the Business of Yoga Speaker Series, to name a few.
Besides passionately teaching and practicing yoga, Jess is also a certified Thai Massage Therapist and is dedicated to living a healthy, holistic life. Jess is an impassioned yogi, a mom, a foodie, a sports enthusiast, and a lover of words, people, and big ideas.
"Jess takes you on a journey with her yoga practice and teaches you to move from the heart. Yoga has become an essential daily practice for me now thanks to Jess and has awakened my body, my breath, and my spirit."Lori, Scotland
"Buddha means, simply, awake. Jess is awake. Alive, joyful, fun—and most importantly, caring—one of the most dynamic young yoga teachers out there."Waylon, USA
"I can't recommend and praise Jess`s classes, retreats and the human being and yoga teacher that she is ENOUGH! She has a genuine care and interest for every person she meets and spreads such amazing, good and calm energy all around her. I don't even know how to write this review to explain to everyone that hasn't met Jess yet how great she really is!"Linn, Norway
