About Jeanette

Jeanette Lee creates flexible, varied, and engaging Yoga programs for individuals and groups in the Washington, DC Metropolitan Area.

Jeanette is an alumna of the nationally recognized Shambhava School of Yoga in Rollinsville, Colorado, and is a Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT) with Yoga Alliance, the premier Yoga certification organization in the United States. She has extensively studied Vinyasa Yoga with world renowned yogis Shiva Rea and Simon Park, as well as meditation, kirtan, and yoga philosophy at the Shoshoni Yoga Retreat.

Jeanette has taught at area businesses, small and medium sized companies, and specialty firms, including law firms and education centers for kids, teens, and adults. She has also been a special guest instructor at various studios in the United States and abroad, including a recent month long program in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

In addition to helping her students master the physical aspects of Yoga through alignment, body mechanics, kinesthetics, and coordination of breath and movement, Jeanette also helps students develop mental awareness, focus, and relaxation. Our daily mental stress can lead to muscle tension, muscle spasms, immune overresponse or underresponse, and even spinal misalignment.  The deep relaxation brought through Yoga can not only counteract many physical symptoms, but create a level of relaxation and joy that can help us more effectively succeed in a competitive world that demands relaxed, focused concentration.

A Yoga class appropriate for a dance studio probably won’t be appropriate for a law firm. Whether dealing with individuals or groups, Jeanette tailors her classes to the appropriate need and level. She has taught athletes, dancers, lawyers, doctors, teenagers, retired persons, military personnel, and expectant mothers. She has helped her students overcome injuries, develop strength and flexibility, and dramatically reduce physical and mental tension.

Instead of using a one size fits all approach to Yoga, in which the same sequences are taught in every class, Jeanette designs and varies each class to create an enjoyable, challenging, and ultimately far more rewarding program for her students. She offers both private and group classes, with competitive in-home and on-location rates in the Washington, DC Metropolitan Area. For more information, please contact Jeanette.
