About Jen

My name is Jen and up to recently I worked as a class teacher in the Shine Early Intervention classes for over 10 years and I am also a home tutor. I first started doing yoga therapy back in 2021 after completing my training in children’s and teen yoga and mindfulness as I wanted to focus on yoga techniques to help parents and teachers to assist children with additional needs in the classroom and at home. I also currently run weekly yoga sessions in Kinsale on a 1:1 basis for neurodiverse children and teens and I also run yoga workshops in the Down Syndrome Centre in Cork and with families on a 1:1 basis.
