Jesse Bennett
Pilates and Yoga Instructor
Jesse began practicing yoga and Pilates in 1998. Practicing both yoga and Pilates transformed how she felt in her skin, in her body, and in her mind. Falling in love with both disciplines and seeing how they truly compliment each other inspired her to study, teach, and share yoga and Pilates with others.
After graduating from The University of Southern California in 2001 Jesse completed her first Pilates mat certification with Power Pilates. She went on to recertify with Integrated Balance Pilates in mat, reformer, spine corrector, and Cadillac. Jesse’s yoga training is through Shiva Rea’s: Samudra Global School for Living Yoga. Under Shiva Rea, Jesse traveled to Seattle to complete Embodying the Flow: Foundational Vinyasa Flow Teacher Training, then traveled to Kripalu to study Fluid Power I & II. Jesse has also studied with Doug Swenson, Bea Raydo, and Rolf Gates.
Jesse’s goal for her students to have their practice be their sanctuary -to let the mat be a place to go for comfort, growth, fun, laughter, and strength. Jesse is from Lake Tahoe, California.
