Enjoy Nature Wise Yoga with Jenny Feick

Feel naturally wise, strong, flexible, balanced and free

I invite you to practice yoga with me in a way that respects natural wisdom. Yoga can help us generate an inner well of resilience and loving kindness that we can share with others to make the world a better place.

Feel free to explore the Nature Wise Yoga website. See when and where I am teaching scheduled classes. Find out how to book a customized class just for you, a group of you and your friends, or your organization. Be sure to scroll down to the bottom of this page to see what the next three classes are that I am teaching, the photo gallery of yoga in natural settings, and feedback from yoga students.

My life mission is to inspire others to care about and to care for Nature, the root source of health and wellbeing. By teaching yoga in a way that respects and appreciates Nature, I help people tap into the natural world’s life force in a way that sustains body, mind and spirit.

An avid student of yoga for decades before taking Eoin Finn’s yoga teacher training program, I am certified as a yoga teacher by the Yoga Alliance. I am part of the Blissology Yoga Teachers Network, trained to teach mindful and innovative Vinyasa Flow Yoga and the principles of Blissology™ developed by Eoin Finn. What also revolutionized both my personal yoga practice and my teaching is the YogAlign Method® developed by Michaelle Edwards of the Mana Yoga Centre in Kauai in the Hawaiian Islands – see manayoga.com/yogalign.htm. In July 2014, I became certified as a YogAlign affiliate teacher, the only one in the Columbia Valley. From a life and yoga practice sustaining point of view, YogAlign – pain free yoga from your inner core ® may be the most important step along the way in my entire yoga journey.

In 2021, I moved Nature Wise Yoga to the Upper Columbia Valley near Invermere, British Columbia. I teach live-streamed classes for Mountain Home Yoga Studio in Invermere and occasional in-person workshops. You can also book in-person or online private yoga classes. You can contact me about ordering video and/or audio recordings of past classes taught in Victoria. Many of the classes I’ve taught in Invermere are in the Mountain Home Yoga video library. Even if it says below under "Class Schedule, "No upcoming classes", please check the Livestream Schedule for Mountain Home to see when I am teaching.

Namaste.

YogAlign Method Spine Aligner

Sitting or exercising with poor alignment leads to poor posture, shallow breathing and chronic pain. The YogAlign Method uses poses that support natural posture with anatomically correct spine alignment such as this Spine Aligner with a Twist. (Photo by Ian Hatter)

Testimonials

Interesting; I actually feel lighter after this class that focused on “Air”. When you said to replace our feelings of tightness with feelings of lightness, it worked.
Tonight was so amazing. It’s like you read my mind. Everything we did tonight was something that I wanted to do. I was actually going to ask you at the end of class last week if we could do Sun Salutation SEA, Dolphin and Bridge, but you were busy answering someone else’s question and we had to go. Then you did those poses tonight. It’s like we had a mind meld thing going.
Yoga in the Park participant
It’s amazing that today of all days you would do a yoga class with the theme of “Water”. I dreamed of WATER last night. I actually had a dream where I was thirsty and being passed glasses of water. I work in fisheries management, so I really liked that pose called “Lord of the Fishes” . Ha Ha.
Participant at "Flow & Go! Yoga"
I like the use of some Thai yoga massage techniques, like the sweeping of the legs along the meridian line.  I really don’t like it when yoga teachers show off and make the class too hard.  I’m glad you’re not doing that.
Testimonial
I really liked doing those balance poses against the wall.  I felt my muscles release more.  It really made a difference and I was able to go deeper into the pose than usual.
Testimonial
I thought I felt pretty good when I came to class but I feel REALLY good now. Today, for the first time, I was able to easily reach back and grab my foot in that Stick Bug Pose.
I used to have really bad plantar fasciitis. I have noticed that since I started doing yoga I no longer have sore feet.
I’m training for a half marathon in Oak Bay so I liked all those hip opening stretches we did.
Testimonial
Before class, my elbows and knees hurt from housework and cycling. I was so tired and sore. Now I’m not sore and I feel relaxed. Thanks.
I enjoy the instructor who teaches the “Yoga for Hikers” course and I enjoy doing yoga in the [Fireside] room at Vic West.
