                  Jennifer Kanazawa was raised in the                                      Okanagan Valley.  Her background in trauma                          informed wholistic healing began at the age of                        13 with Jeet Kune Do and the Filipino Martial                          Arts, which later flourished into self-defence                            workshops for women and group class                                    facilitation at the age of 18.  In 1999 Jennifer                          began walking the yogic path.  She is an ERYT-                      200 Yoga Alliance certified instructor who has                        been blessed to teach practices of Gitananda                        Nada Yoga by Yogacharya Dr. Ananda                                    Balayogi Bhavanani, Yin Yoga by Bernie Clark,                      and Hatha Yoga by Mugs of the South                                    Okanagan Yoga Academy.

               Jennifer's approach to teaching is reflective of                        her martial arts background. The strengths and                      skill set of each individual is unique to                                    themselves.  In celebrating the diverse nature                        of oneness, each person's extraordinary                                  essence can be revealed. From her                                        perspective, the knowledge that has been                              passed down to her is the perfect vessel for                            self-transformation and spiritual growth.
