About me
Jackie Rose has had the privilege of running Palisades Yoga, the home of this festival, and teaching yoga for well over a decade. A 500-hour RYT with additional certifications in Aerial yoga, breathwork, meditation, and mindfulness, Jackie is also a mentor to teachers in training and loves supporting the next generation of guides as they find their voice on the mat. Jackie is deeply passionate about making yoga accessible, playful, and grounded for every body. Her classes are thoughtfully paced and breath-driven, weaving in meaningful, universal teachings that invite reflection beyond the physical practice, on how we treat ourselves, each other, and the world around us. More than anything, Jackie wants you to feel present in your capable body. She encourages curiosity, a sense of humor, and a willingness to meet your imperfectly perfect self exactly as you are. In Aerial yoga, the hammock is the best prop ever, supportive, strengthening, and just plain fun! It has a beautiful way of dissolving self-doubt and inviting pure play, making it a perfect entry point for beginners and a fresh challenge for seasoned practitioners alike. Whether you're stepping into the hammock for the first time or returning to deepen your practice, Jackie's classes are designed to help you turn inward, move with curiosity, and reconnect with your own beautiful light. Come ready to breathe, strengthen, giggle, and maybe leave loving yourself just a little bit more.
