Ocean Yoga & Wellness Somatic Yoga + Mindful Movement for Nervous System Regulation
Helping you reset, breathe, and come home to your body. Jody was no different.
(1)

Often people come to Yoga searching for something. After 15 years of daily mindfulness meditation practice, endless retreats, and time at a Buddhist Monastery – he still felt like something was missing. He found it on the mat at his first Yoga class: the body, breath, and mind working together through movement brought the sense of ease he was looking for. Jody offers an authentic, mindful, down to earth approach to teaching. Without losing the integrity of the Yoga tradition, he brings insights from his Buddhist practices into class and focuses on mindful movement, linked with the breath to enhance the meditative quality of Yoga. What to expect: Jody teaches people not poses,” we don’t force our body to get into the pose, but we use the pose to get into our body”. The class focus is on functional movement, balancing the nervous system and calming the mind. Leave class feeling grounded, balanced and rejuvenated.

Joan has walked the healing path for nearly two decades, discovering that true recovery isn't about returning to who you were; it's about creating an entirely new relationship with yourself.

Through her own journey, she has uncovered a fundamental truth: healing begins when we learn to care for ourselves with the same compassion we offer to others.

In her session "Heal," Joan shares practical, sustainable approaches to nurturing your body, mind, and spirit daily. This isn't about adding more to your already full plate; it's about weaving self-care so seamlessly into your life that it becomes your foundation for showing up stronger in every area.

If you're tired of being everyone's caregiver while neglecting your own needs, this session will help you reclaim that energy. Joan will guide you in creating a personalized plan that honours your reality while prioritizing your wellbeing.

Your body, mind, and spirit deserve the same love you freely give to others.

Sometimes the most powerful thing you can do is find stillness within the storm.

🧘‍♂️When everything around you feels chaotic and overwhelming, that quiet center you cultivate becomes your greatest strength.

It's not about escaping the noise, it's about not letting it control you.

Your inner peace isn't just self-care, it's a superpower that helps you think clearly, respond thoughtfully, and stay grounded when others are swept away.

Our Story

My mantra is: Yoga is Now. The openness, discipline and enthusiasm we bring to our practice, cultivates the patience, awareness and wisdom to bring contentment into our lives, both on and off the mat. I am inspired to share my yoga and meditation practice with the rebels, the heartbroken, the addicted, the bored, the lost and lonely, anyone looking to bring more contentment onto their lives I, too, experience all these things myself. With gentleness and bravery, let us explore the vast ocean of stillness and peace that lies beneath the ebb and flow of our turbulent minds. Yoga is Now.
