Jayne began her professional fitness career 29 years ago in Melbourne, Australia coaching young gymnasts as she attended Victoria University majoring in Physical Education. By the age of 20, she was Head Coach of that gymnastics club and gained national notice within the gymnastics community. She went on to study with renowned international coaches gaining various accreditations along the way, including graduate work in Exercise and Sports Science.
What began as a personal training business (Fitness & Beyond) in Australia has morphed into offering a mind-body-spirit approach to optimizing health, connection and balance. Desert Yoga Therapy has grown into being the main focus of what Jayne offers: 1-1 yoga therapy, semi-private yoga classes, retreats in California & Australia and workshops. Desert Yoga Therapy is situated within a women's wellness medical practice where we have a small, beautifully appointed yoga studio for women only.
Community classes (held in Palm Springs) and workshops are for both men and women. The philosophy which is shared with all clients and classes are based in the traditions of yoga. Tools for obtaining optimal wellness through our own doing, awareness and continued growth.
Along with her academic degrees, Jayne is an IDEA Elite Personal Trainer, 500hour Yoga Alliance certified instructor, Certified Aromatherapist and a member of the International Association of Yoga Therapy. She has worked extensively in postrehabilitative programs, with athletes and special needs clientele.
A truly international person, Jayne is a much loved teacher. She is able to bring nonjudgment into her sessions allowing the space for each individual to find what is needed for him/her at each particular moment.
