What people have said about Bliss Yoga

​

Jess is an incredibly knowledgable and conscious teacher. It is clear she understands the body, biology and environmental impact on people's wellbeing. She invites you to work with your limitations and extend your expectations of what you could achieve.
If you are somebody who has experienced trauma or recovering from PTS/D I would recommend her classes. I encourage my clients to attend her classes once they get to a certain stage in their recovery. I am a psychotherapist.
Don't hesitate. Try a class.

"I have been practising yoga for about 14 years now. Jessica McKenna is one of the best teachers I have had. This is not only because of her warm and positive personality, which informs the way she teaches, but also because her instructions are so clear and helpful. I find the range of poses restorative as well as challenging and also appreciate the space Jessica cultivates for the spiritual elements of yoga. Throughout, reminders of non-competitiveness allow each individual in the class, whatever their experience or the kind of day they've had, to flourish."  Nonnie

"I've found that everything about your classes - the ambience, very precise and easy to follow instructions, not only on positions, but also on breathing, together with the relaxation period at the end, always made me feel invigorated and at peace" Jon

Yesterday my wife and I went to London to meet one of my relatives from Canada. I drove to Epping intending to park the car there and take the tube to the centre of London.  Unfortunately it was one of those days when everything goes wrong.  I couldn't park at Epping and we had to drive on to find a station down the line where we could. We lost a lot of time doing so, and we just kept running into more problems.  I was worried about my wife because she has limited mobility and I didn't want to leave her having a long walk anywhere.  She also stresses easily.  By the time we eventually got onto a train after a catalogue of mini disasters, I was the one feeling stressed out and rather shaky. But as I sat on the seat, I thought of my yoga practice.   

Plant feet firmly on the floor under my knees. Sit back squarely in the seat, let it support my spine.  Sit upright, shoulders back, chest open.  Relax, body and mind.  Close eyes, focus on breathing.  Slow it down, steady, full and even breaths.  Feel the prana spreading into all those areas of tension. Stay in the moment and let everything else go.  

Within three stations, about ten minutes, I was able to open my eyes and all the tension and worry had disappeared.  It felt like I had just woken up from a deep, refreshing sleep.  We still had enough time to reach our rendezvous and we went on to have a lovely day.

Yoga pays off.

“I have had operations on my knee, ankle and shoulder as well as having scoliosis (curvature of the spine) and wanted to strengthen my body with low impact.  My friend told me about Jess, a yoga teacher in Norwich and thought I would give it a go.  I have seen Jess for one-to-one sessions and am now able to join her classes.  I have been amazed at how yoga has helped; I have more range in my knee, greater strength in my shoulder and less back pain as well as feeling calmer.  Jess has warmth, a positive energy and it is a pleasure taking yoga with her, thank you”  Becky

 

"I have been attending one of Jessica’s yoga classes for two years starting as a beginner.  It soon became apparent that Jessica is a competent yoga practitioner and very familiar with all aspects of yoga.  She relays her experience well and manages to put the novice at ease as well as allowing the more experienced pupil to realise their full potential.    Jessica is empathetic and creates an atmosphere of calm.  I come away from the class relaxed and invigorated." Peggy

 

"I am really enjoying the variation of the classes and the different pace and posture each week.  The slower pace yesterday was really odd to me, but I think produced really good results.  I felt very clear headed and a pain that I have in my lower back (for years and years) has actually gone...The thought you put into your classes really shines through, and I am enjoying the more meditative qualities that you bring to the practice, that is not my natural state!" Kate

I regard yoga as an integral part of my lifestyle.  Since I am now past retirement age I am very conscious of the desire to stay fit and healthy, in both body and mind.  Although I am now quite experienced at yoga I still prefer to attend a more organised session in a neutral venue where I am led and can concentrate without distractions.  I guess I need the discipline.  So your weekly classes are ideal and fit in very well with my personal health regime.  I have been attending your sessions regularly for over 2 years now.  The benefits are quite tangible in my case: I can measure actual improvements in flexibility, which are not supposed to happen to men of my age, and also point to general very good all round health - hopefully not tempting fate by doing so - to which I am sure your sessions contribute.  

The sessions are well structured and allow for both progressions into more advanced postures, movements and breathing techniques where appropriate, but also focussing on keeping the basics correct so the grounding is always solid. I like the variety that you introduce from time to time, and the way you link your practice to your personal philosophy of appreciation of nature and physical and mental well-being.  This gives more dimension to the practice and encourages us all to follow similar thinking.  You have now built up a group of regular attendees and this has created a very friendly and pleasant atmosphere in the sessions. I also like the way you encourage this by having us all join in mantras and recent pair work.  

I find that the classes have become a sort of refreshing staging post in my week.  I always feel better for them and carry the sense of relaxation away with me every time I leave.  In fact it is sometimes a little difficult to come out of the relaxed state and start moving at normal pace.  Your teaching also provides a valuable fall-back when I need to deal with exceptional stresses or challenges.
