Jess Meider has been teaching at The Yoga Yard since 2006. Originally from New York, she has been living in Beijing since 1998. She is Hatha-trained and deeply influenced by Five Elements (Chinese medicine) and Yin Yoga. Classes have a beautiful flow with attention to meridians, breath and practices to encourage healthy qi-flow.
Jess is also professional singer, songwriter, and jazz vocalist, which inspires her to teach chanting and vocal yoga workshops. Chanting serves as a powerful tool for deepening inner stillness and connection with the world.
Jess encourages self-awareness to help cultivate self control on and off the mat.
Jess’s teachers include Sarah Powers (Insight Yoga), Cameron Tukapua (TCM/5 Elements), Matthew Cohen (Hatha Yoga), Max Strom and the founders of The Yoga Yard, Mimi Kuo and Robyn Wexler.
Jess co-owns The Green Room Skincare, featuring all-natural serums for the face, body and hair, available for sampling and purchase at The Yoga Yard. www.thegreenroomskincare.com
