The Adaptive Yogi

Jenny is that rare being, (in New Zealand at least) who teaches a truly inclusive yoga class and style. She does so with a warm welcome and an enormous smile. Not only is her teaching style inclusive, but many of her classes have a zoom option so they are very accessible. Jenny also does retreats ranging from 4 hours to a weekend. Very good value.

Thank you Jen, for sharing your love, knowledge and training with us at the Nelson Retreat. Such a fantastic venue, superb food and wonderful yoga / workshop sessions. Great fun, lots of laughter and an awesome group of women, new friends.

The retreats Jenny runs are wonderful. Yoga for all levels. A mixture of meditation, dancing and Shakng. Beautiful people, food and guide. Thoroughly enjoyed every moment.

“That was awesome. Never actually knew much about the diaphragm (yes, just had too Google that for the spelling) Definitely going too make me more aware of my breathing now! and your voice alone is very soothing and relaxing. Thank you Jenn appreciate your teachings, look forward to next week”

Lovely day with The Adaptive Yogi! Jen makes you feel safe and comfortable no matter your level of yoga experience . I definitely will do one of her retreats again. Beautiful venue, yummy lunch provided and felt super relaxed by the end of the day

If you do one thing for yourself in your life, do a retreat with Jen the Adaptive Yogi. Her inclusive attitude and kindness, along with stellar expertise means there is something for everyone. A group of women arrived as a strangers and very quickly became friends. Hands down one of the best experiences ever. The company, the sessions and the food along with a beautiful location made a perfect 3 days. Thanks Jen and all the beautiful attendees.

I have been attending Jen's online classes for about two years and they are amazing! I have done yoga in the past and loved it but problems with my knees make traditional classes too hard for me. It is also hard to find a yoga class that is a comfortable place for larger bodies. Jen is welcoming to all and can modify the poses to work for anyone. She is also a lovely warm person who always makes me feel better, even after a long day.The last couple of years have been tough for everyone but meeting Jen and attending her classes has been life changing.

Having just recently attended one of Adaptive Yogi's Curvilicious Body Peace Yoga Retreat I can highly recommend this for anyone who is interested in, or already committed to, living and honouring our sacred stories of divine femininity that is held within our physical and spiritual bodies. The schedule was the perfect amount of rest, relaxation and restoration. The yoga was pitched perfectly to meet the needs of everyone in attendance. The food was nourishing for the soul. Location perfectly poised to provide serenity. Most importantly, I felt safe, and supported by sisters who were strangers up until I arrived and sisters by the time we departed. If you are feeling called to join, do it, for yourself. You deserve it!

Just got home from the Curvylicious Yoga Retreat in Nelson, what a fantastic way to reconnect with myself, make new friends and enjoy Jenn’s amazing practices and gentle way of making you probe into your self. Have already rebooked for next year. Thank you Jenn you have made me feel spectacular.
