Jax was introduced to Bikram yoga in 2007. Although, she found her most important life lesson years later in Restorative yoga. That life lesson was the importance of slowing down and relaxing. On a biological level, it increases activation of the parasympathetic nervous system - our body's "rest response". In a world full of stress triggers, Jax is focused on cultivating a sense of calm in her classes.

Most recently, Jax attended Judith Lasater’s Relax + Renew Level I restorative yoga training in Stockbridge, MA. She infuses restorative elements in each class and always creates a restful space for students. Jax believes in "living your yoga". She maintains a consistent practice, both on and off the mat. Her favorite class is restorative + gentle with her primary yoga teacher, and mentor, Julia Jonson.

Jax is a strong advocate of mental health and stays current on research that provides evidence that yoga positively influences mental health outcomes. She enjoys reading psychology and bodywork literature that helps her understand the benefits of yoga through other lenses popular in the western world. Jax believes deeply in the importance of fascia in maintaining overall health.

Jax is also an HR professional specializing in the coaching and development of high-potential, early career talent. Her knowledge of adult learning principles and ability to provide personalized feedback come across in her teaching style.
