Hatha with Musician


This class is taught by:

Jessie Kingwill

I am a certified yoga instructor with 200 hours of training in Hatha and Vinyasa styles of yoga. My yoga journey began as a way to connect more deeply with my body, mind, and soul, finding a way to move my body with more intention and compassion, and has evolved into a passion for building community and sharing the profound benefits of yoga with others.

Two years ago, I lost my mom to pancreatic cancer. She loved practicing yoga, and through my practice, I feel a strong connection to her and have found it to be a powerful tool for working through my grief. Yoga has been a cornerstone in my healing journey, providing a space for meditation, reflection, and honoring the roots of yoga philosophy.

For the past three years, I have been practicing at Riffs Yoga Studio, where I also work at the front desk. This vibrant community has become my second home, and I cherish the relationships I've built here.

When I'm not on the mat, I love to be around people, surf and hang out at the beach, go on bike rides, take long walks, cook delicious vegan meals, and I enjoy camping and being in the mountains. These activities keep me grounded and connected to nature, bringing balance and joy to my life.

I look forward to guiding you on your own yoga journey, helping you find balance, peace, and a deeper connection to yourself.

This is an all-levels static practice where you can expect to hold traditional yoga postures for several breaths, allowing time to explore alignment and engagement within your body. Hatha provides a strong foundation for stability, balance, and full-body awareness. While this practice is slow, it can still be physically challenging. Optional opportunities to explore more advanced postures may be offered, with modifications available. Unlike Vinyasa, this class does not emphasize chaturangas, though they may occasionally be incorporated with control and intention.
