Jill Dowling

Jill earned her 500-hour certification in 2008 under ordained Yogacharya Eric Walrabenstein. She has taught in various environments beyond traditional studios, including corporate retreats, within organizations, at spas and gyms, and as a volunteer in an at-risk youth community. Having a real passion for human behavior, she also studied co-active coaching at CTI in San Rafael, which brings a unique perspective and connection with her students. She strongly believes in the 8 limbs of yoga and the Yoga Sutras, “yoga is the stilling of the fluctuations of the mind” above everything else. She intends to leave students feeling replenished, present, and with a combo of high, yet peaceful energy. Born in Pennsylvania, but always a West Coast vibe at heart. Her move to San Francisco in 2013 had a lot to do with the abundance of yoga and esteemed teachers in the Bay. Off the mat she is often dog-sitting, enjoying live music, or eager to laugh and watch the next Netflix comedy special.
