Welcome to Embodied Education
“tenderness makes room for emotion; offers a witness for experiences people have buried or left unspoken; welcomes silence, breath and movement, and sees justice as key to our survival” - Becky Thompson
testimonials
“The Rest program has guided me to develop a practice of cultivating restoration and embodiment... It has made me conscious of how important it is to take care our nervous systems and how that can support us to be more engaged and compassionate.... Rest has welcomed me to accept the parts of myself that are silent and sweet, tender and quiet. To know these as strengths and pathways to transformative and collective change. The embodied practices and inquiries make the knowledge Jo has shared experiential and accessible to integrate. They have supported me to access ease and connection when I am feeling anxious. ”
“Aside from the professionalism of her offerings, it is clear Jo embodies her trauma-informed teachings and learnings in a way that ripples out to inspire those around her - perhaps without them knowing! I feel that this is a true sign of a strong teacher in any field - to walk the talk, and teach through actions rather than words. I would highly recommend Jo as a teacher, a mentor, and a facilitator, for any occasion that requires guidance that holds wisdom, softness and strength.”
“Jo teaches with such grace and wisdom - creating an inclusive and safe space to explore new ideas, connect with the communities and deepen yoga practices.”
