YOUR HOSTS

JENNIFER KESIK
Jenny's yoga journey began back in 2009 as a cure to the back pain caused by scoliosis which she developed while competing as a professional windsurfer. Jenny was amazed how positively her body responded to yoga and what started with simple stretching quickly turned into a regular practice. After 8 years of regular practice in 2016 Jenny traveled to India and completed a 200h yoga intensive Ashtanga/Vinyasa teacher training at Sampoorna Yoga Institute in India. Following completing her teachers' training course she went on and explored Ashtanga Yoga in Mysore where she studied under Ajay Kumar at his Shala Shalam 8 for 3 months. Practice in Mysore has certainly influenced Jenny's teaching. What initially started purely as a physical practice took Jennifer on spiritual journey and inner exploration. Currently Jennifer teaches predominantly dynamic vinyasa and ashtanga classes in Bournemouth, UK where she has lived for the last 13 years. She organises workshops and since 2017 runs yoga retreat company All Flow Yoga through which she has run over 10 international retreats around the world.  Jennifer lives and breathes yoga and cannot wait to share her magic with you during this winter retreat. 
STEPHANIE SMITH 
Stephanie first came to yoga thirteen years ago when she found herself overwhelmed with work and life in London. Discovering the London Buddhist Centre began her yoga journey and yoga classes and meditation acted as a cure for her stressful and imbalanced life, building a bridge which connected her inner self to the outside world more positively. Stephanie has originally received her 200h Hatha and Yin training from Yoga Alliance with Eleonora Ramsby at One Yoga in London. She then went on to train with the prestigious British Wheel of Yoga Diploma as a level 4 teacher and completed further Chinese Medicine Yin training Norman Blair.  Apart from yoga, Stephanie is a certified  sound therapist, energy healer and breath-work facilitator. She runs monthly therapy workshops in Bournemouth, facilitates many one to one sessions as well group retreats.
