held group workshops at Amrita Yoga. In her lectures she speaks
about the importance of raising core energy, teaches students
how to identify energy centers and leads them through a specialized
healing meditation.
Energetic
Dance:
Jennifer’s work is based on facilitating healing in people
by both channeling pure energy and also igniting their own chi
through their body. Dance can have similar effects in people---it
can transport the soul into the purest state of being. When consciousness
is refined, it leads to an opening of the heart allowing _expression
for the higher states of being i.e. gratitude, unconditional love,
compassion and generosity. Jennifer’s background in various
types of ethnic dance and clear understanding of the energetic
body allows her to interact with members in the class on an intuitive
level guiding them to move from within. She has held 2-hour long
Ecstatic Dance Workshops both at Yoga Tree in San Francisco and
5th Street Yoga in Winter Haven, FL.
