Jessica Paquette started her journey into yoga while volunteering at an orphanage in Calcutta, India. With spirited yogis around her, she became intrigued with the yoga philosophy and immediately knew that yoga was the spiritual journey she was looking for. When she came back to the US, she enrolled in Yoga teacher training with no expectations of becoming a teacher. She graduated with the 200-hour
Certification in 2007 and has been teaching ever since. Jessica has led 6 teacher training courses and has been certified in multiple modalities. In the last few years, Jessica has been embarking in the world of sound healing and shamanic healing. You will find Jessica hauling gongs and bowls to all her yoga classes. Jessica teaches kundalini, restorative, and power yoga through the south bay.

Ava Moreno entered the yoga and fitness community through her first love: dance. She began her dance training as a toddler, training in all forms of dance. After having struggled with a severe eating disorder when she began her professional dance career at age 16, Ava found Colleen Quinn, an incredible mentor and inspiration to her through the form of a personal trainer and physical therapist.

Ava has also struggled with several injuries in dance due to her hypermobility, including a medial patellofemoral ligament knee reconstruction at age 20, leading her to look into deeper ways of understanding and helping her body. Although Ava had first been introduced to yoga at age 11 through dance, it was not until she entered recovery from her eating disorder that she began practicing regularly, discovering the peace, focus, and stability–both physically and mentally–it brought her. Throughout her recovery, Ava studied nutrition and began to explore the yoga, fitness, and wellness world.
