Jasmine Cooper

Teacher

CAMYOGA

Jasmine has been studying yoga since her early twenties and teaching since 2018, joining CAMYOGA in 2021. She qualified as a RYT 500hr teacher in 2019, and as a 300hr Jivamukti Yoga Teacher in 2023, studying under Yogeswari and Moritz Ulrich, mentored by the inimitable Andrea Kwiatkowski, with whom she has been studying since 2017. Her guiding principle is compassion for all beings and is grateful for all of the wisdom she has gleaned from her teachers, past and present – wisdom she hopes to pass on to her students. She is endlessly indebted to her first teacher, Halina Rozensztrauch, her dear friend and teacher Anita Tambala, and, of course, her beloved teacher and mentor Andrea Kwiatkowski. Off of the mat, Jasmine is the Fairlie-Hutchinson Junior Research Fellow in French at Girton College, University of Cambridge, where she specializes in contemporary women’s writing, critical race theory, queer theory and intersectional feminisms. Jasmine teaches Jivamukti Open classes which focus on aligning breath and intention with movement. You can expect challenging vinyasa, Sanskrit chanting, hands-on assists, yoga philosophy, meditation and relaxation. These are uplifting classes, accompanied by motivating playlists and taught with Jasmine’s infectious enthusiasm and energy.
