The Founder & Lead Yoga Teacher
Jennifer Kesik
Jennifer Kesik is the founder of All Flow Yoga retreats. She is originally from Poland but for 14 years has lived and is currently based in Bournemouth, UK.
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. She organises workshops and since 2017 runs yoga retreat company All Flow Yoga. During the winter months she assists and delivers Ashtanga unit at the 200HR Teacher's Training Course at Sampoorna Yoga in India. She applies tristiana: Ujjayi breath (victorious breath), the bandhas (energy locks), and drsti (yogic gaze) in all her classes as a foundation of the practice. She often says "The only thing that distinguishes yoga practice from any other activity or gymnastics is the connection of movement with the break, making this practice mindful. Being here and now. Moving meditation". She believes that hand on adjustments in the practice can help students experience the benefits of postures in more depth and bring balance and steadiness to the body therefore she is keen to offer many adjusts and assists in her classes. Inspired by the art of hands on assists she has recently qualified as a THAI YOGA MASSAGE Therapist at Sunshine Yoga Massage Institute in Thailand and looking to incorporate Thai yoga massage elements in the yoga practice.
