Our Team
Jill
Jill has been in a relationship with movement her entire life. From dance and theatre to long days spent hiking and running through nature, movement has always been how she listens, explores, and understands herself.
That curiosity eventually led her into the world of physical therapy, where her respect for the human body deepened into both science and care. Over time, yoga became the thread that wove everything together, a practice she has lived with for more than 25 years through seasons of growth, stillness, inquiry, and joy.
Jill’s path has taken her to retreats both near and far, and into meaningful research exploring the benefits of yoga for individuals living with Parkinson’s disease. Her work reflects a deep belief that movement is not just something we do, but something that connects us to ourselves and each other.
in 2025, Jill completed her 200 hour yoga teacher training through Ignite Wellness Collective in Arizona, stepping fully into the role of guide after decades of embodied study. Teaching for her is not about performance or perfection, but about creating space for freedom, connection, and the very human experience of being alive in a body.
We are deeply grateful for the care, wisdom, and grounded presence Jill brings to this community. Her classes invite you to move with curiosity, soften into stillness, and remember the joy that is already within you.
Camren
Camren is a compassionate, intuitive yoga instructor whose classes feel like a deep exhale. Her teaching is rooted in mindfulness, somatic awareness, and genuine care, creating a space where students feel safe, supported, and free to move at their own pace.
Camren leads with presence rather than performance, offering thoughtful options and gentle guidance so each student can listen to their own body and practice with self compassion. She believes yoga is not about forcing shapes or striving for perfection, but about building trust within the body and nervous system. Through attentive cueing and a nurturing tone, Camren invites students to slow down, tune in, and reconnect in a way that feels sustainable and kind. Her calm, grounded energy and ability to truly see people are what make her classes so deeply felt and easy to return to.
Tara
Tara’s yoga journey began nearly 20 years ago, when she found refuge in the sacred teachings of eastern philosophy and yoga during a period of her life when nothing else seemed to ne working. What started as a personal search for grounding and meaning, slowly became a steady anchor, offering clarity, discipline, and a deeper sense of connection.
Her dedication to the practice eventually led her to first yoga teacher training in 2013, followed by an additional 300 hour training in 2015. These studies deepened her relationship to the spiritual traditions of yoga while allowing space for a modern, accessible expression that meets people where they are.
Tara’s teaching weaves together breathwork, meditation, and sound as essential tools in every class. Her approach invites students to move beyond posture alone and into a fuller experience of presence, awareness, and self inquiry.
For Tara, yoga is not something you do on the mat. It is a way of life, a lens through which to move, breath, listen, and live with greater intention and care.
Kaila
Some teachers come to yoga through movement. Others arrive through transformation.
Kaila’s path into teaching began with her own journey inward, one that offered clarity, purpose, and a deeper sense of authenticity. Yoga became more than a practice, it became a way of understanding herself and moving through the world with intention.
As a teacher, Kaila creates space for students to explore that same inner landscape. Her classes invite reflection, honesty, and presence, meeting each person exactly where they are without pressure or performance.
This work is not about becoming someone new. It is about remembering who you already are.
Tori
Tori had been looking for a way to calm the mind, body, and soul.
With a physically intense day job, yoga became a means of mental clarity and therapy to the physical body. In a goal driven, fast paced society, restorative somatic work offered her an opportunity to tap into the now. Your inner landscape is always there waiting with your truth.
This became very true and real for Tori, as she continued to practice these modalities and later became certified to teach others how to regulate the nervous system. Tori offers accessible classes geared toward all body types. Her intention as a teacher is to allow everyone to experience all layers of the body in the present moment with acceptance and kindness.
