Teacher Training
Teacher training is one of Jane’s favourite places to be, it serves to nourish, inspire, humble, and marvel in all that we have, and can be when we soften into being, moving, breathing beings; connected with all there is.
Jane is blessed to be founder faculty of Awakening Arts School of Yoga and Eco-Somatics with dear friend and colleague Juliette McConachy. She regularly teaches on the Terra Soma 200 hr RYT and advanced 300 hr Art and Science of Rest trainings in the beautiful surroundings of Shambhala eco-retreat, Onekaka, Golden Bay, NZ.

Completely biased in opinion, and yet so committed in truth that these teacher training experiences are the best in the world!
Jane is world class! What a treasure of a find here in little old New Zealand. Jane teaches anatomy and physiology from the lens of western medical science, yogic science, and therapeutic experiential somatics.
What our students learn most of all with Jane is to work less for their practice and BE more in it/with it. Jane teaches, and demonstrates in her approach to her own practice, efficient pathways for fulfilling the āsana shapes with effortless strength, grace and awareness. Her profound knowledge of the body and her skill in meeting each student, beginners and beyond, exactly where they’re at, makes learning with Jane somehow both engaging and deeply relaxing! Come experience it for you self!
We love learning and growing, moving and being moved with you Jane
