STUDIOย  OUR TEAM

Jennifer Clarke

Iโ€™m a movement educator, yoga teacher, dance artist, and qigong practitioner and teacher.

I hold a BA in Literature and Contemporary Dance from the University of Calgary, an EYRT500 designation with Yoga Alliance, a Master of Medical Qigong (MMC) from Empty Mountain, and am an Associate Registered Movement Facilitator with ISMETA. Iโ€™m completing requirements to become a Registered Somatic Movement Therapist/Educator.
In my dance career, Iโ€™ve received awards from the Mayor of Vancouver and grants from the Canada Council and BC Arts Council. Iโ€™ve performed across Canada and Europe, specializing in improvisation with musicians and other dancers. My dance practice centers around Contact Improvisation and somatic movement.
Yoga has been a lifelong practice, and I am privileged to teach it. I lead teacher trainings, classes, workshops, and have developed a significant body of work around tension management and somatic awareness, particularly in areas such as the neck, jaw, and shoulders. I also practice and teach qigong, an ancient Chinese practice combining breath, movement, and focus.
