WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING…

SDY creates a space that is safe for you to come as you are. There’s no requirement to be anything but yourself and I’m so grateful to be amongst the community that Jennifer has created! When I first started, I had never gone to a yoga class before. I’ve never felt judged and Jennifer has made learning how to practice, so much fun! So grateful to be a member of SDY! (LM)

After one of Jennifer’s classes, I feel like all things are possible! Who doesn’t want that in their life?? (SF)

 I wanted to send you an attestation for your website but more importantly to let you know how much influence and impact you have had on me. Your ability to put everyone at ease, whether virtually or in person, is so appreciated. I never feel judged or uncomfortable or feel there is any competition in your classes; I feel accepted for me. Monday night classes leave me relaxed but energized and Saturday mornings are challenging yet so much fun! Your studio has an unbelievable positive aura but my favourite time to do yoga with you is outside, in nature, where I am truly grateful for you, the yoga tribe, and abundance around us.  You have had a profound impact on my ability to effectively manage through this pandemic. Many, many thanks.   (KC)

I wanted to tell you that I love to practice at SDY because of so many reasons... the unpretentious atmosphere, how ‘real’ you always are with us, the beautiful and peaceful space you have created in your studio and the fact that every class is different. You make such an effort to be intentional with every class and the thoughtful approach you take to having themes and readings for many of your classes is really special. I just so enjoy carving out that time for myself and spending it with you!  (VJ)

Jennifer’s yoga practices are a calming, soothing way to complete my day. She is fabulous at checking in with the class to address any issues we may have, gauge energy levels and tailor the class to our needs. Her empathy and caring radiate out to us even in a virtual setting. I’ve been honoured to accompany Jen on her journey from fellow student to new and perhaps slightly-nervous teacher to compassionate, confident and clear instructor. Jen, you have found your calling. Forever grateful for sharing your gifts with us all. Namaste.  (JT)

I thank my daughter for introducing me to SDY more than a couple of years ago.  You were introduced to me as I was adjusting to a life of retirement.  Your studio, both old and new, provided a place of peace and tranquility.  A place devoted to “me”.  During the Covid crisis, your on-line classes allow us to have some social interaction that is so refreshing.  At this time of confusion and frightening health issues, you are able to deliver messages of positivity.  It’s amazing how many times I feel the message you provide has been written specifically for me.  Thank you for taking your time to meet with us and guide us as we nourish our body with movement and nourish our spirit with your enthusiasm and kind messages. You keep our light shining.  Namaste.  (JM)

I’ve been a dabbler in Yoga for many years, nothing serious, but enough understanding of the practice to know what my comfort zone is as well as where my abilities lie.  Sun Dog Yoga classes in Uxbridge are truly one of the most welcoming I’ve been to --  no judgement, lots of support (alternative poses, depending on your needs), with kindness and laughter all rolled in.  Such an authentic human being, Jennifer is very genuine and possesses a tremendous amount of knowledge regarding her craft! She lets you know what the pose is about, how to adjust it and what you may experience post class (hip openers, anyone? 😉). There is variety in every  class that keeps everyone engaged, interested and focused. I’ve been to in person, indoor (pre-pandemic) classes, outdoor classes with beautiful expansive views, and virtual classes as well – no matter what structure, there is care and consideration put into each one. The community of yogis that attend her classes are all warm and welcoming themselves – I highly recommend to anyone looking for an inclusive, judgement-free, friendly yoga class! (DG)
