Devoted Yogi

"Jenna McDonald the owner of Devoted Yogi is a wonderful encouraging teacher. The studio feels like a tree house snugged in the trees and an easy walk from downtown Bainbridge or the ferry landing. She leads and teaches from the heart focusing on yogic principles and ayurvedic practices. Woman Goddess Mother Teacher Charismatic...you'll know when you go!"

"I can't wait to return to Devoted Yogi. It's such a sweet studio, in an ideal location nestled in the trees near the ferry dock, with infrared heating and all the yogi amenities. The best part is the owner/teacher, Jenna. She is the most knowledgeable, positively passionate and devoted Yogi I know. I've taken her classes and trainings for years, are there are simply no comparisons. I resonate with her in multiple ways, and I'm constantly inspired by her dedication and devotion to all aspects of Yoga, and to her students. I feel like you got really lucky if you've found her and her precious studio on Bainbridge Island."

"I had been wanting to take a YTT program for quite some time and had to wait for various reasons. Yet, I’m so happy I found Jenna and Devoted Yogi when the time was right! Jenna’s 200 hr YTT program is truly an all-encompassing training. Jenna puts true heart and soul into her work, and is passionate about making sure her students have in-depth knowledge around the practice of yoga as a whole... the history, philosophy, the role and use of Sanskrit in yogic teachings, breath-work, in-depth look at the 8 Limbs, shapes/asana work (including proper alignment, cueing for teaching, etc), and how to take everything we had learned and be able to construct well-balanced yoga sequences and classes and teach effectively as instructors. All in all, I’m BEYOND grateful to have found her and Devoted Yogi. I still learn so much from her through continuing to take her classes myself. I highly recommend Jenna and Devoted Yogi for anyone who wants to experience and develop a genuine and authentic yoga practice for themselves! Thank you, Jenna— I’m grateful for you!"

"Jenna is incredible! I have been to countless yoga studios and classes here on the peninsula and island, and even in Tacoma and Seattle; I have never had the fulfillment of my yoga practice as I do here! I absolutely love coming to her classes and totally recommend her Yoga Teacher Training. Her teaching structure, warmth and passion for yoga forever changed my life. Although our training is almost over, I know I will continue coming to her classes. Thank you Jenna!!"

"I have never met any yoga instructor like Jenna. She leads from within. She is the most genuine woman and cares about YOU. I’m amazed at how I feel so seen among many other students throughout each class. Jenna, is a healer. She is about breath, healing from within, how you feel in each pose and movement and most importantly the connection of our mind and body. Take one class with her and you will understand what yoga truly is about. Her studio has the most beautiful natural light and out the windows you see trees. It’s a magical place!"
