“Self-care is never a selfish act - it is simply good stewardship of the only gift I have, the gift I was put on earth to offer others. Anytime we can listen to true self and give the care it requires, we do it not only for ourselves, but for the many others whose lives we touch.”
-Parker J. Palmer, Let Your Life Speak: Listening for the Voice of Vocation

YOGA BIO
Proud backer of the 10,000 Suns installation in DownCity by Adam Anderson.
Along with art, yoga is the thread that connects the physical, psychological, and spiritual intersections of Jo's many passions.
Joanna discovered yoga in 2005 as a means of supporting her athletic lifestyle, not realizing how profoundly nourishing the practice would grow to be for her mind, heart, and soul. Her BFA thesis show in 2007, titled “Bringing to Light”, was dedicated to exploring this awakening. She completed her first 200-hour yoga teacher training with Tom Gillette and Shannah Green of Eyes of the World Yoga in 2015, and has been continuing yoga and movement education ever since. When she found herself in career transition in early 2017, she created a line of eco-friendly yoga mats with her artwork to pay for her tuition for Shri Yoga’s 60h Path of Service training, and also furthered her education with her mentor Coral Brown in her 200 hour Prana Flow training. Outside of the yoga studio, her passion for mindful movement extends to hiking, backpacking, surfing, slack lining, weight lifting, dancing, paddling, snowboarding, rock climbing, and beyond! She is NOLS Wilderness First Aid, CrossFit Level 1, and CPR certified, and has drawn inspiration from studying movement and human potential with athletes such as world record holder Ryan Moody and movement specialist Carl Paoli :) |
