Balance Yoga Atlanta Co-Founder Launches Solo Project

ATLANTA - Nov. 7, 2014 - PRLog -- After co-founding and co-directing Balance Yoga for 10 years, Jennifer Smith has ventured off on her own. Offering private and small group classes in her home studio, she is also a featured instructor at West Coast Workout and Atlanta Hot Yoga in Buckhead. In her Vinyasa flow classes, expect tapas, music, humor and an energetic flow that challenges and elevates. In her Ashtanga (both Mysore and led) classes, she strives to honor the practice and the lineage, while infusing the room with humor and kindness.

“After long consideration I knew that it was time for me to break out on my own,” said Jennifer Smith. “Through my own life experience including injury, aging, and surgery along with my personal experience on the mat and teaching, I have cultivated a warm and energetic style that is welcoming to anyone from the beginner to the advanced practitioner alike.”

Jennifer Smith has been practicing Ashtanga and Vinyasa Flow yoga for over 14 years, while teaching for more than 13 years. Before starting this path, she received her undergraduate degree from Vanderbilt and then went back to school to get an MBA. While she enjoyed working in the corporate world, she quickly realized that she felt so strongly about the benefits of a steady yoga practice. Always a student, as well as a teacher, she has been lucky enough to study thousands of hours under tremendously talented senior teachers and continues to immerse herself in intensives each year with her Ashtanga teacher David Garrigues as well as train yoga teachers all over the country. It is through a slow, steady absorption of their wisdom as well as daily practice that she is able to teach the joy in the practice.
