A life-long student and practitioner of many movement modalities, and a dancer by nature and training, Janet's most recent foray into yoga came about via a personal health crisis and her subsequent search for understanding of and relief from chronic pain. With an all-or-nothing attitude, Janet completely immersed herself in healing including (among other things) yoga, meditation, mind-body connection, and the subtle art of simply being. Through this immersion and transformation, not only did she discover tools for pain management but a new life focus as well. In addition, through her yoga journey, Janet has directly experienced the genuine importance of community in the healing process. Janet received her 500 Hour RYT certification through Karen Rider's Be Shri Yoga. She is a certified facilitator of Nikki Myers' Y12SR. And, most recently, she studied KRI Level 1 Teacher Training with Hari Kaur Khalsa. Most important, Janet is mom to an amazing and adventurous human named Marlon.

With Dana Covello, Janet is co-director of The Yoga Loft
