Jessica Krejcie, RYT-200, completed her teacher training through Prairie Yoga in Lisle, IL in 2013. Jessica was introduced to yoga after beginning her first full time desk job (at Exelon!) after college in 2006, and quickly appreciated yoga's ability to combat the hours spent sitting at the desk while improving both her mental and physical strength. Through yoga, Jessica has learned more about herself and has learned to apply the lessons from the yoga mat to areas outside of her life, including at the office and home. She believes yoga meets you where you are and allows you to be exactly who you are meant to be. Jessica lives in Naperville with her husband and 90-pound labardoodle lap dog. She can be found online at jessicakyoga.com.
