Jackie’s Story
Jackie sought yoga after a significant illness 42 years ago and she’s been practicing ever since. Originally from England, Jackie came to the States 22 years ago when her husband took a job here. She received her 200-hour teacher training in 2009 and her 300 hour in 2014 – both from Angela Phillips.
New to teaching at Shine, Jackie is a perfect fit for our team of easy-going and compassionate instructors. Having practiced at Shine for three years, it was a natural choice to have Jackie officially join the team.
Jackie and her husband have a small cottage in Kill Devil Hills where they like to occasionally escape and enjoy the great outdoors. They have two daughters and four grandchildren plus three large grand dogs. Jackie’s currently an early childhood special education teacher’s assistant at Kempsville Elementary and when she’s not wondering if we’ll ever be back in school, Jackie loves to play golf, ride her bike and go kayaking.
