Jessie Shapiro
200 hr E-RYT Yoga Alliance Certified
FRC-Ms
Lululemon Brand Ambassador 2015-2017
Since 2010, Jessie has guided students toward a deeper connection with themselves through a practice that balances physical challenge with mindful exploration. With a strong foundation in anatomy and alignment, she encourages students to move with intention, meet the intensity with curiosity, and discover strength in both effort and stillness. Her classes cultivate more than physical strength; they create opportunities to build confidence, find clarity, build resilience and carry a greater sense of self-awareness into everyday life.
Jessie received her 200 hour certificate through YogaWorks under the guidance of Malachi Melville Grieves. Always continuing her education, she has studied under Chris Loebsack, Irene Pappas, Dylan Werner, Matt Giordano, Nevine Michaan, Abbie Galvin and more.
In the spring of 2018 Jessie ventured to Canada to learn the principals of Functional Range Conditioning under the guidance of Dr. Andrea Spina. She is now a certified FRC mobility specialist, and seamlessly weaves the principals of this discipline of isometrics and end range conditioning into her yoga classes.
When Jessie isn't on the mat you can find her walking her golden retriever, playing on a beach, enjoying a hike, photographing yogis or couples, hanging out with family and friends or traveling somewhere new and exciting.
“I have never left one of Jessie’s classes without a puddle of sweat on the floor and a smile on my face. Her sequencing and music keep me moving even when my muscles ask for mercy! ”
