Jess blends precise functional alignment with an intuitive, student-centered philosophy. She teaches from the belief that no two bodies, or two downward dogs, are the same, and that yoga should support the body you have, not the shape you think you “should” create. Her classes are clear without being clinical, spiritual without skipping the science, and always delivered with a lightness that helps beginners feel welcomed while keeping advanced practitioners deeply engaged. Jess has a rare ability to explain complex anatomy in plain, enjoyable language, often with a laugh, always with depth. Whether she’s breaking down spinal mechanics or guiding a moment of quiet breathwork, Jess offers the sense of a teacher who genuinely sees her students, even through a screen.From Berlin studios to global screens
Jess’s teaching career began in studios and community spaces across Berlin, where she developed an intimate, student-centered teaching approach that still shapes her work today. Her transition to online teaching allowed her to connect with students worldwide, guiding practitioners from over 70 countries through detailed pose breakdowns, anatomy lessons, and accessible movement programs. As one of the featured teachers behind several massively popular online yoga challenges, Jess helped shape the evolution of digital yoga long before online practice became mainstream. Today, her teaching lives primarily inside Movement Wisdom, her rigorous yet deeply supportive online YTT known for clarity, mentorship, and a holistic approach to embodied learning.A teacher with heart (and humor)
Beyond her expertise, Jess is loved for her down-to-earth presence. She brings levity to challenging poses and depth to simple movements, always reminding students that yoga is not a performance, it’s a practice. Students describe her as intelligently playful, refreshingly relatable, and gentle in all the ways that matter. When she’s not filming new classes or writing curriculum, Jess can be found traveling with her family, hunting for great coffee, reading anatomy books for fun, or recording another tutorial with her ever-patient demo partner, Victor.Where to explore Jess’s work
