Feel 15 Years YOUNGER

“I feel very fortunate to have been attending Jackie’s classes for just over ten years. When I started I was 53 and weak in all areas of my core, back, legs and arms. Now at 63 I can say I have never felt stronger thanks to Jackie’s commitment to keeping us strong as we age. Every class is slightly different to the previous one and works on different areas of the body. The exercises combined  with Jackie’s wealth of knowledge which she shares during her classes have inspired me to keep going back to stay strong and get stronger. It’s the best."

“Over the last 10 years I’ve been attending Jackie’s yoga classes at Essential Yoga, starting when I was 60.  I’m addicted to Jackie’s teaching. She is exceptionally motivated and her enthusiasm is contagious. She moves through life with intention, positivity and a passion to share her knowledge with her yoga students. 

During my time with Jackie I’ve had challenges with my health and know with certainty I wouldn’t have recovered as well if I hadn’t been one of her students. 

Her yoga keeps me centred and positive."

“I have attended Essential Yoga for several years. Jackie’s classes offer a thoughtful blend of yoga and pilates designed to support longevity, joint health and sustainable strength. I love her passion for long term self-care and anti-aging. I highly recommend joining in for overall well being."

“I am a 78yo male who loves Jackie's very unique style of yoga. The classes are a mix of traditional yoga, pilates & some aerobics focusing on strength, balance & flexibility.

For every pose, Jackie will suggest and demonstrate at least 3 different levels of difficulty which caters for everyone from beginners to the experienced & always insists that everyone only 'push' to their own limits.

After 6 years we are still learning & very much enjoying it!"

- Roger W.

“Jackie is an intelligent, dedicated, enthusiastic & energetic 'Yogi'. Her passion for health & vitality is infectious & her classes are unique & ever changing.

After 6 years of 4 classes per week, my partner & I can honestly say we have never been bored or unmotivated to attend.

If you wish to remain active, strong & flexible whilst you age gracefully, Essential Yoga is the answer"

- Julie B.

“I regularly attend Essential Yoga classes with Jackie, three times per week if possible. Jackie is passionate about helping people to age healthily. Her classes are varied, well structured and fun! I have personally experienced improvements in strength, balance, flexibility, posture and muscle tone. I’m addicted!”

- Maureen W.

“After several years without yoga, I went to one of Jackie's retreats and am now addicted, doing multiple zoom classes a week from Perth. Jackie’s classes are well-structured and I feel great afterwards, relaxed as well as exercised. The mix of traditional yoga, yin, pilates and cardio really works and the classes are never boring. Jackie always gives multiple options so you can take it easy, or push yourself hard, depending on how you're feeling that day. And they're fun, I laugh a lot. I would highly recommend you give a class a go, whatever your fitness or enthusiasm level.”

- Sarah T.

“Each of Jackie's classes gives me more insight into not only the valuable benefits of Yoga now, but also into my future older body. 

Personally I feel comforted knowing I have a huge influence on reducing the risk of falls as I age. Increasing bone density, strength, flexibility,  mobility - and a lot of laughter along the way.  

Thanks Jackie for your "care factor" in all your classes.”

- Carolyn P.

“Having taken up yoga just over 12 months ago I still consider myself a beginner to this practice. Jackie teaches different levels for all movements from easier to stronger which enables you to learn and experiment with your own range whilst she encourages and monitors your techniques.

I look forward to every class during the week with Jackie and at the end of each class feel a sense of peace and balance to end my day. Oh I also feel 2 inches taller ”

- Stephanie S.

“I have been attending Jackie’s classes for about 3 years. I was never really one for yoga as flow yoga wasn’t my thing. I have always valued fitness but never really worked on strength and flexibility.  However, since doing Jackie’s classes  I have never been so strong and my flexibility is always improving. I love the variety and the like minded people that attend. Thank you Jackie- I am addicted to your classes!!!!”
