Jessica Bozza

My name is Jessica and I am an ESL teacher, massage therapist and yogi in Raleigh, NC. I have been practicing yoga for 24 years! My first yoga class was in Seattle in 2000 and since then the practice has been my best friend. In 2023 I became certified to teach yoga through a 200 hour program at the YMCA of the Triangle. The program offered training in vinyasa flow, yin, and meditation. My goal as a yoga teacher is to bring yoga to everyone, where all body shapes, fitness levels, and experience are welcome.  

My primary job as an ESL teacher has allowed me to teach English in China, Taiwan, Russia, and various places in the United States. As a teacher of students whose primary language is not English I am highly experienced in modification and differentiation. I believe these strengths translate perfectly into the yoga setting where poses in their pure form may not be available to all students. One of my favorite expressions from my yoga mentor is that if you are breathing you are doing yoga. I pride myself on helping students modify poses and find what works best for them. Given my love of international travel and yoga, Fit Bodies couldn't be a better fit. I am excited to see the world as I grow as a yoga instructor.
