Why We're Here
...we recognise rest as a necessity, not a reward; we are interested in moving away from the capitalistic view of rest as a means to increased productivity – this is a practice that will help us understand ourselves at a deeper level.
...we wish to create Restorative Yoga practices for ourselves and for others that honour the bodies we are in, and that consider other factors by which our practice of rest may have been impacted.
...we are interested in the connection between rest and community, rest and collective care, rest and liberation

Lead Trainer
Jennifer Tan (she/her) has been in education of various kinds for the past 18 years, from more academic settings, to CrossFit coaching and Yoga teacher training from a more movement-focused angle. Specific to yoga and over the years, she has taught various styles (Hatha, Yoga for Athletes, Chair Yoga, Gentle, Power, etc.), eventually developing a more specialised interest in Restorative Yoga; this has nourished Jen’s seven-year-long (and counting) relationship with her teacher, Judith Hanson Lasater, who she assists during both in-person and online trainings.
Complementary to her yoga trainings and teaching years lies her experience in curriculum development and interest in other movement modalities, which have culminated in the co-writing/leading of a 200h Yoga Teacher Training, the writing/leading of a 50h Restorative Yoga Teacher Training, and certifications in the likes of myofascial release work and Functional Range Conditioning, respectively.
Regardless of style, all of Jen’s classes are invitational and curiosity-driven, with the hope of finding ways to move our bodies with confidence and compassion.
