About

Hello My name is Jamie Maden. Since 2006 I have been practicing Yoga. Certified in with Yoga Alliance in 2011 now ERYT 500, YACEP. I do also have degrees in other walks of life.‍ ‍

Yoga became a part of my life, a practice as a Military Spouse. Light on Yoga was my first read. Being Mother and Wife to a USN Submariner had many challenges. This practice helped me on many different levels, spiritually, mentally, and physically.

I also experienced difficulties with my health, having Autoimmune Disease at young age of 27 radiation at 28 years of age 20 plus years ago. Later in life having Arthritis, Tendonitis, Fracture L Elbow, and Surgeries on my L Knee and R shoulder. Life is full of surprises. We all have challenges it’s what we do that matters. How we live and our lifestyle. Yoga is on & off the mat. Being Present living with Integrity. I do stick to the Practice of Ashtanga. There are different levels and of course modifications it shows growth. Why take something that has worked for so long and change it. No thank you. The Integrity of the Practice works.

I encourage all Levels to practice. Modifications are a must, yes you can injure yourself if you are not careful. Instruction and cuing are key as people are guided in a class of any kind. I also balance my Personal Practice with Walking & CrossFit (Baseline Level). It is all a balance. Types of Practice key component is your Breathing in each class on a mat Chair Yoga, Vinyasa, Flow, Pure Stretch (more static), and, Pregnancy (Post too), and all of it is on a mat with props as needed in a comfortable environment for EveryBODY.‍ ‍

I live Clean & Sober Minded life, toxicity isn’t just from a substances of sorts, it’s what you do and how you live your life. Years of experience opened my eyes and while practicing Yoga in fact our bodies do in fact let us know. Our Mind, Body, and Soul can’t heal one without healing the others. Yoga has taught me to take out the trash Mentally Physically and Spiritually Accept Myself where I am. To try other things too, and rise & recover out of Fear not run. “Face Everything And Rise/Recover”, true transformation in that, very healing.

I have learned to respect my mind, body, and my soul I hope we all do, eat better and live better. My Hope is to sow those seeds out into the world. I am humbled and grateful to serve others and community.
