Evolution Yoga & Wellness Co.

My yoga journey has been quite the adventure, full of twists and turns. But every step has led me to where I am today, and I wouldn't change a thing.

​

The pandemic rekindled my love for yoga. I found solace on the mat, reconnecting with myself, calming my anxieties, and navigating the grief of losing my father.  (there was only so much Tiger King one could watch!)  

​

My passion lies in guiding others on their yoga journey, helping them discover their inner strength and potential.  I believe that yoga is for everyone. Let's embark on a transformative yoga journey together. Come as you are, and I'll guide you to discover your inner strength and power.

​

You can find me walking, trying new recipes, bike riding with my husband and rooting on the sidelines for my baseball playing son if I'm not at the studio.

Jennie’s yoga journey began in 2014 when she wandered into her first Ashtanga class and immediately fell in love. Since then she has had the opportunity to study with a number of talented and beloved local teachers, in addition to some world-renowned teachers like David Garrigues, Eddie Stern, and David Swenson. Jennie is passionate about sharing her love of asana theory and yoga philosophy, and she loves the sense of community that the practice of yoga brings.

She lives in Kensington with her husband, Ben, and their cat, Callie (aka Squish, Squisho, or Squish-puff). When she’s not studying yoga, Jennie likes to read, play and listen to music, spend time in nature, volunteer at a farm animal sanctuary in New York, and eat yummy vegan food. She looks forward to seeing you on the mat!

Julie has been teaching yoga for two years and has practiced yoga for over twenty years. She loves a soothing restorative yoga class just as much (if not more!) than a heated power yoga class. Yoga has shown her how to tap into her own strength and gives her the courage to show up exactly as she is–something she encourages her students to do in her classes. She implores her students to drop their judgments, listen to their bodies and explore what is true in the present moment for them on their mats. 

​

Julie is a 200 hour graduate of West Hartford Yoga’ Power Yoga teacher training (2022), as well as certified in Kids Yoga (The Yoga Shop, 2020)  Restorative Yoga ( West Hartford Yoga, 2024)  and Trauma Informed Yoga ( West Hartford Yoga, 2022) . She holds a B.A in chemistry (2002)  and a M. Ed. in secondary education (2003)  from Lehigh University.

She has been a high school chemistry teacher for over twenty years. When she’s not teaching chemistry or yoga, you can find her spending time with her husband and two sons. She loves to run, hike, lift weights, read and cuddle with her two rescue pups, Gracie & Ladybug.
