Josee developed a personal yoga practice in 2015 after a serious car accident that left her not able to dance like she used to. She found that the gentleness and acceptance of yoga helped her along her healing journey and allowed her to feel what she needed to feel.
Since then, Josee has completed over 500 hours of training which has deepened her knowledge of the history, philosophy and principles of practice. She has a background in psychology, her Masters of Social Work and is an advocate for mental health and trauma-informed practice. With an in-depth understanding of the connection between mind, body, and soul, she offers a relevant and realistic approach in her teaching, guiding and giving her students all the tools they need in order to deepen their own practice. Josee focuses on creating safety and trust with her students, by using inclusive language and cues, and by paying attention to possible environmental triggers or stimuli that might affect her students.
In the 200 hour training, Josee teaches yoga pose foundations and teaching methodology. Learn more about Josee at: joseeyoga.com
