A peephole experience into Jai; behind the scenes! No music, no flowery additives. Just the sweet sounds of you, of this community.
If you were wondering what atmosphere is cultivated at Jai, hereโs your raw proof.
Jai has built a foundation of love and calm, with inclusivity for your joys, your sorrows, your changes. You are held, but free to be.
From all of Jai, you are cherished beyond measure. You are what has created this nectar and for that, we are forever grateful.

this time, itโs about us.
the reality of being your teacher is often times, we can get lost if we donโt stay a student.
just like you, a teacherโs practice is imperative to their well being and their ability to show up. without this practice, a teacher can lose the integrity thatโs weaved into sharing yoga with you.
feeling lost, unstructured, ungrounded without your practice? teachers can feel that, too.
itโs so important to the potency of the practice a teacher serves that they maintain their own. reclaiming the devotion, the foundation, the teachings is what creates an unshakable space for everyone to land.
thank you, for allowing us to continue learning along side you.
all of us, just walking each other home.
POV: a morning spent at Jai
Where you get to choose how you show up.
Messy, calm, energized, tiredโwe welcome it all.
Weโre just here to hold the spaceโfor you to be you, exactly as you are.
A space to make spaceโฆ
Between you and the pace of your week.
Between you and the mental clutter, the to-do lists, the overstimulation, the overwhelm.
Every day at 9:30am, choose from traditional non-heated or hot yoga.
Both will take you where you need to go.
Thatโs not for us to decide.
This space is yours to make.
Classes all day, everyday ๐ see you there
We are overflowing with pride and joy as we celebrate one of our beloved teachers, Jenn Newman, for accomplishing something extraordinary โ not just as a runner, but as a radiant light of service, dedication, and heart.
Jenn recently completed the Boston Marathon as part of the Dana-Farber Marathon Challenge team, a journey that began not with a superhuman running time, but with a bold heart and an unwavering belief in community. She poured her soul into the rigorous charity application process (six charities, five rejections, countless hours of planning), and when she was accepted into the Dana-Farber team, she pledged to raise $15,000 to fund life-saving cancer research.
Her plan? To use her yoga teaching to fundraise. And she did it. Through her classes, workshops, collaborations, and the generous spirit of her students and supporters, Jenn exceeded her fundraising goal.
She never stopped giving of herself, even when the journey got hard. And on Marathon Day, she didnโt just run โ she celebrated. Jenn danced at street parties, high-fived kids, cheered on teammates, and ran with joy in her heart. She says:
โThe marathon has broken my heart so many times, but yesterday was not one of themโฆ I ran comfortably and had high energy the whole time. I stopped to sing and danceโฆ and the turn onto Boylston was unforgettable and possibly the most magical finish line Iโve ever run through.โ
Her experience running for something beyond herself, as part of a team committed to healing and hope, was the experience of a lifetime. And it reminded her โ and all of us โ that sometimes, the most powerful journeys arenโt about time or speed, but about heart, courage, and showing up for others.
Jenn, your Jai family is in awe of you. Your strength, joy, and dedication ripple through our community, and we are so lucky to know you, learn from you, and be inspired by you. Thank you for letting your love of running and yoga be a force for good.
From all of us at Jai โ congratulations on completing the Boston Marathon and becoming a true champion for Dana-Farber. You have touched so many lives, and we are forever grateful to walk (and run!) beside you.
With love,
your jai home ๐
WHAT IT MEANS TO BE IN THE 1K CLUB ๐ซ
Some of you are so close โ and weโve got a special gift waiting for you.
Itโs less of a club, more of a celebration โ for showing up 1,000 times at Jai.
It means youโve lived in alignment with the very foundation of this studio: devotion, intention, community, and connection.
Itโs reflecting on all the moments you trusted the power of the practice, leaned into your own strength and wisdom โ on and off the mat.
Itโs knowing you always had and have the choice to show up, tune in, or not โ and choosing to do it anyway.
We are endlessly grateful for each of you. Thanks for making this Jai world go โround. ๐ซถ๐
Our bodies donโt just digest foodโthey digest every feeling too. Nourish your vagus nerve + stress response with this Qigong flow, then melt into selfโmassage + yin.

โElevate yourself through the power of your mind, not degrade yourself, for the mind can be the friend and also the enemy of the self.โ โ Bhagavad Gita 6.5
Itโs easy to think that pursuing ourselves means chasing success, accumulating things, seeking approval, or grasping at what never truly satisfies. Yoga teaches that the deepest fulfillment doesnโt come from what we accumulate; it comes from what we cultivate within. When we quiet the mind and turn inward with curiosity and devotion, we become our own greatest ally. We live from a place of clarity, peace, and purpose. As we align with this inner truth, the outer world naturally follows, falling into place with greater ease, harmony and wholeness.
If youโre ready for THIS kind of pursuit, teacher training may be on the horizonโฆ

are you practicing โ๐ซ๐๐๐ฅโ yoga?
this concept of perfection follows the human experience everywhere.
the looking around on the mat to make sure youโre doing it โrightโ.
yoga is not folding yourself into a pretzel any more than it is going to work or making dinner for your family.
yoga simply, ๐ข๐ฌ.
every breath, every step, every thoughtโฆitโs yoga.
even if you never step foot inside of a classroom, you still practice yoga should you choose to be aware of it.
pranayama, asana, mantra, meditation; these are all just outlets. pathways to connect deeper into something beyond yourself.

to practice, is to jiggle the imaginary door handle of all you could ever be.
whether it is the very first time stepping onto a mat, inviting liberation into the conversation,
or,
the one thousandth time you committed to creating a space of love and safety for yourself,
you are becoming the key to the reality you would like to live.
when you sit in these four walls, and surround yourself with souls that yearn to create change, the energy is clear; ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ ๐ก๐ข๐ ๐ก๐๐ฌ๐ญ ๐๐ฆ๐๐จ๐๐ข๐ฆ๐๐ง๐ญ ๐ข๐ฌ ๐ฐ๐๐ข๐ญ๐ข๐ง๐ ๐๐จ๐ซ ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ.
