Inspired by the global bass movement, her music is an evocative, lush journey into her own blend of bass-heavy electronic dance beats, melodic frequencies, gorgeous feminine voices, conscious lyrics, and sacred psychedelic sounds. Described as feminine and fierce, elegant and gritty, ethereal and primal, her music unfolds in a pulsing, hypnotic journey that moves both bodies and hearts. Tyler has evolved his Partner Yoga experience and his time at Ecstatic Dance to practice his offering of sharing Dance with another, playing with Shared Weight, and Center of Balance, Rolling & Sliding Point of Contact, Fluid Lifts, Floor Play, and other dynamics present in this deep, intimate, playful practice. Tyler is the CoFounder of Ecstatic Dance Bay Area, and also teaches Doubles Partner Yoga. More at: www.OneBreathArts.com Jennifer sees Yoga as an all encompassing practice that teaches lessons of life, love, strength, patience, gratitude and compassion as well as gives us the tools we need in order to self-heal. She crafts her classes inspired by Vinyasa flow sequencing, with a focus on deep stretching, breath work and increasing body consciousness. She also likes to end her classes with healing touches and essential oils for her students while in Savasana. Her passion for teaching is fueled by the desire to help others increase peace and confidence as well as reduce anxiety and stress for optimal happy living.
