Jen has always loved to dance! She studied classical ballet for 16 years. In 2001 she took her first Nia class and has been passionate about it ever since.
Nia teaches the Body’s Way so that we learn to listen to the voices of the body as guide and teacher. It provides an approach to life that uses everyday movement and activities to stimulate, to heal, and to bring joy. It’s called dancing through life! It unlocks the wisdom in our bodies and connects us to the movement of life.

Justine Sanchez has been a practicing yogini for over 20 years. After the birth of her son, Justine suffered a sciatic injury that brought her to her knees and to yoga. She found her teacher, Sofia Diaz, in 2002. Ever since, Sofia has continued to bring Justine to her knees in the consistent bow that IS Hatha yoga. It is with much gratitude to her teacher that Justine offers her practice as a teacher in and around the Boulder area.
Justine, her husband, and son live at 9,260 ft in a straw bale home they built together in Ward, CO. Living in close proximity to the elements, as well as the “chop wood/carry water” lifestyle, informs her practice and her offerings.
Teaching and living in the Nederland area for over a decade, Justine’s practice is honed towards strengthening and maintaining healthy bodies as mountain dwellers. As well, her class offers an opportunity to contemplate how a bodily practice can inform our moods, inspirations, and life challenges.

Kim
Kim Rand lives the epitome of a Rocky Mountain lifestyle, calling Colorado her home since 1990. As a Boston native with a love for the outdoors, Kim Rand answered the call of the west, trusting and seeking solace in the freedom of wide open spaces. Today she walks the walk maintaining an active lifestyle hiking with friends, river running, fly fishing and enjoying Bluegrass festivals. Despite this active lifestyle, like so many of us, everyday stresses and physical pains began to emerge in her lower back. In response, Kim pursued a personal yoga practice and witnessed a welcome transformation in body strength and alignment. More importantly, Kim discovered an unexpected quieting of the mind and a strong desire to teach.
In 2009, Kim’s passion brought her to Maui to study “Maya Yoga”, a fusion of Ashtanga & Iyengar, with inspirational teachers Nicki Doane and Eddie Modestini. She completed a yearlong study with RR Shakti, founder of “Inner Power Yoga”, in 2013. Her emphasis is on awareness, breath, alignment and the integrity of the asana allowing the space needed to move energy and create positive change in the body and mind. She feels that the foundation of the pose is essential to a healthy and sustainable yoga practice and it’s through a safe and mindful practice that a student is able to heal their body and quiet their mind. Kim brings the ancient teachings of yoga philosophy into the classroom cultivating ones connection to self and the wisdom within. She believes that the practice of yoga cultivates the awareness within to find and explore the connection between body and mind giving everyone the ability to heal oneself physically, mentally and emotionally. She encourages her students to take yoga off the matt and into their daily lives promoting healthy relationships in every aspect of life.
“Yoga is like music: the rhythm of the body, the melody of the mind, and the harmony of the soul, create the symphony of life” B.K.S. Iyenga

Marni Siegal has been practicing yoga over 25 years. She first came to the practice as a college student and was astounded when one of her instructors reached out and grabbed her own toe. Before long, Marni noticed herself integrating stretching into her daily activities and found that she could breathe deeper and stay calmer for it. She attended a variety of yoga classes, but found her yoga home in the Ashtanga Vinyasa system. In 2004, Marni completed her Teacher Training at Richard Freeman’s The Yoga Workshop in Boulder, CO. She primarily practices and teaches Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga but also deeply enjoys sharing what she has learned about Restorative Yoga as well as Parent-Tot Yoga.

Masha was born in Ryazan, Russia and practiced Kundalini yoga with her mother starting at the age of 12. At the opportunity to move to America, she started a new life in Colorado in 1998.
In 2000, yoga’s invisible strings pulled her in again as she took her first yoga class with Sarah Hurley and after this, inevitably began to follow a spiritual path. She began teaching classes in 2007 after graduating from Denver Core Power Yoga Training and continued to further her education at Boulder Core Power Yoga Studio as well. Then in 2011 she moved to Lake Tahoe, California and taught Vinyasa, Restorative, Bhakti classes and led Yoga Dance Workshops.
The teaching styles she emulates and has found inspiration from are that of Shiva Rea, Jason Bowman and Shelah Morris. In her classes she strives to create a psychological break from the everyday worries for her students. She also uses a Tibetan Singing Bowl to enhance and support the sine waves effect on specifically the heart and the crown chakras. She leads her practice in a way that challenges and re-balances her students’ body and mind.
Masha has recently relocated to Denver but looks forward to subbing at Tadasana and visiting the mountains as much as possible.

Fitness has truly been a life long passion of mine. I started skiing at age 7 and climbed my first 14’er by age 9. During my high school and college years I swam competitively and ran track. Not surprisingly, I decided to pursue a Bachelor of Science degree in Exercise Science. Upon graduation from Ithaca College, I worked for 13 years as a personal fitness trainer and also earned my massage therapy certification from Healing Spirits Massage school in Boulder. My passion is to help others reap the benefits of being fit, and through bodywork and nutrition, help them keep their bodies healthy for the long-term. Having run numerous marathons and completed an Ironman in recent years, I know first-hand about the importance of proper training, bodywork, and taking care on one’s entire being.
