Jenny Shea

Jenny Gabriel Shea began practicing yoga in 2000 and in 2006 was fortunate enough to find Libbie Mathes, one of the few westerners to study privately with Krishnamacharya for six years, who transformed her perspective on yoga. Libbie exposed Jenny to the gifts of alignment, long-held inversions, and pranayama over the course of the last 15 years. In 2010 Jenny earned her yoga teacher certification at the Yandara Yoga Institute and has taught at CMC, Old Town Hot Springs, and local studios in Steamboat Springs, CO for the past 13 years. Her hatha classes focus on using alignment and breath as a vehicle for calming the mind. Jenny has attended workshops with Patricia Walden, Stephanie Quirk, and Devki Desai, and she is regularly inspired by the teachings of Carrie Owerko, Seane Corn, Tara Judell, and Elena Brower. She has deep appreciation for all the dedicated teachers who have passed down their understanding and finds joy in sharing her love for the practice.
