Jillana Burgess - Yoga Teacher
Originally from Halifax, Jillana spent six years in France and four years in Massachusetts before returning to Nova Scotia in 2010.
Prior to moving away, she majored in French and minored in Spanish at Acadia University, where she also experienced yoga for the first time via an instructional yoga DVD.
It was during Jillana’s years in France, however, that she realized how drawn she was to yoga. She first tried yoga out of curiosity, experimenting with different classes and teachers everywhere she went, and while in Paris, noticed she felt a “pull” when passing yoga studios.
It was when she moved to Northampton, Massachusetts that she found her “teacher” - Eileen Muir of the Karuna Center of Yoga and Healing Arts. Jillana was teaching high school French at the time and was often stressed. She found that she felt best during and after yoga practice, and as a result, she committed to making more time in her life for yoga.
