Jodell first decided to try a yoga class as a gift to herself on her 36th birthday over five years ago. This simple act of self-care marked the beginning of her journey to building better balance in mind, body and spirit. “My practice fuels me to be a kinder, more patient person, not only to my family and those around me, but also to myself. Each time I step onto my mat, it replenishes my soul and gives me the energy and insight I need to better care for others.”

As a teacher, Jodell hopes she can convey this message of self-care and kindness to each student. In 2019 she completed her 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training from Hollywood Market Yoga. Vinyasa flowing is her passion, and she has a silly amount of fun learning inversions and arm balances.

Off the mat, Jodell expresses her creativity through sewing all sorts of lovely things – from pretty dresses to modern quilts. Born and raised in Louisiana, she currently resides in Boise with her husband and three children, where they enjoy all the amazing outdoor activities that Idaho has to offer.
