Hello,

     Thank you for discovering Breathe Massage + Yoga. My name is Jenna, and this business is my passion. 
     For the past 9 years, I have been honored to provide aid and comfort to many wonderful people utilizing my unique approach to therapeutic massage therapy.  Early on in my career, I began to develop the same aches and pains that my clients were experiencing.  My back was sore, I was losing range of motion in my shoulders, and I was experiencing intense headaches.  I thought weightlifting would help strengthen my muscles and correct my symptoms, but it wasn't enough.  My muscle mass and pain levels were increasing at the same rate.  What was I doing wrong? What could I be doing better? 

                                             I was tired of living in pain! 

     I knew that yoga therapy used a flow of movement and poses that could help me unwind my body habits and learn new, more supportive postures. So, I embarked on my own journey to unlock and reset my body’s chronic misalignments. I knew that if my muscles were properly engaged that there would be less stress on my body every time I moved.

                                                                                                                      It worked!
     I was moving better, breathing better, and sleeping better!  Yoga was providing me with the tools I needed to support my body's alignment.  I was really excited to tell all of my massage clients about the things I was learning, but I couldn’t.  My Massage License does not allow me to educate my clients with stretches to help them learn new body habits.  I agree, it is kind of silly.

The only option left was to teach yoga and in October 2021, I completed a 200hr RYT course to become a Certified Yoga Instructor.   After courses completed, I returned to Tacoma and expanded my massage business to include a little yoga studio.                                                          

Welcome!
     Please allow me to help unlock your chronic aches, pains and body misalignments with yoga in my small group setting. I invite you in to stretch, breathe, unwind, and book a massage!

                                                                           See you soon!!
