Yoga Instructor: Jennifer Pastiloff (Nov. 6 - 13, 2010 retreat)
Jennifer, a popular Los Angeles based vinyasa flow teacher and a yoga teacher trainer at Yogaco in Santa Monica, is originally from Philadelphia then moved on to NYC before landing in L.A. Starting with Iyengar yoga, she discovered that yoga helped her in healing many areas, from depression to injuries from being a runner. She trained at Yogaworks with Annie Carpenter and Sonya Cottle.
In her classes she combines her love of words and poetry, music, and the healing arts. Classes are challenging, yet completely tailored to each person’s current level of fitness and flexibility. Each class is different, depending on the students' energy, mood, level, and time of day/year.

Yoga has helped Jen change and transform her life, allowing her to become more compassionate and to simply get quieter in the mind. The transformative quality of it is what intrigues her most.

Jen knows you have to have a sense of humor about it all as well, and attempts to bring that sentiment to each class. If you can't laugh, then what is there? It's just yoga, after all! Another day, another downward facing dog.

Yoga Instructor: Juliana Mitchell (Feb. 19 - 26, 2011 retreat)
Juliana (RYT 200) teaches Vinyasa, Restorative & Prenatal Yoga. She believes Yoga returns us to who we are at our essence, so we can live in the joy, wellness and easy that is our birthright. Her classes are thoughtfully tailored to the needs of the individual student. She creates an atmosphere that is free of judgment and full of support. It is her delight to share her love of Yoga with others.

Jules was introduced to Yoga as a child by her mom who practiced for a time under Yoga Master Amrit Desai. She has studied sundry movement disciplines since she was three and has over twenty years of training in breath-work. A decade ago she turned these lifelong passions toward Yoga. She is certified in Vinyasa Yoga through Om Yoga, Restorative Yoga by Judith Hansen-Lasater (with whom she continues to study) and Prenatal Yoga via Janice Clarfield. Last year, Jules encountered Mukunda Stiles whose teachings have deeply touched her. This fall Jules travels to India to study under Yogacharya Venkatesh.

Jules teaches private, semi-private & group classe in Queens, Manhattan & Brooklyn, and on sumptuous retreats in inspiring locations.
