Jess Healey
A professional hockey player who found yoga in 2014 as recovery for a high-impact career, Jess teaches hatha and vinyasa classes that blend breath, movement, and a little laughter. She'll be the first to remind you to move in the way that feels best for your body, and never compare your practice to anyone else's.
Jess is an Edmonton athlete who came to yoga in 2014 and quickly felt what it did for her body, her mind, and her hockey. As her career continued, the mat became a safe place and her best form of recovery. After nine years of steady practice she completed her 200-hour training with Yandara Yoga in Baja, Mexico, in 2022 — a life-changing few weeks that sent her home inspired and eager to share it.
She practices many styles, and it shows in the variety she brings to her own hatha and vinyasa classes: breath, postures, and a bit of laughter. As a professional athlete she understands how hard high-impact sport can be on the body, and encourages students to listen to theirs and move in the way that feels best — to find the lightness in it, and never compare their practice to anyone else’s. Off the mat she’s usually training, biking, running, climbing, or in the mountains with her family.
