Hi there! I’m Jillian Romano—yoga teacher, lifelong learner, and firm believer in the power of showing up for yourself. I’m a Yoga Alliance Certified Education Provider (YACEP) and Experienced Registered Yoga Teacher (E-RYT 500), proudly sharing this practice since 2018.

My yoga journey began with a 200-hour training in a power vinyasa style inspired by Baron Baptiste. His teachings on self-leadership and mindful living struck a chord with me, shaping how I move through life both on and off the mat. But yoga had even more in store for me than I expected.

When my husband suffered a spinal injury, I dove into further training at Asheville Yoga Center, learning how yoga can support healing and mobility. Along the way, I discovered that yoga isn’t just about strength and movement; it’s also about surrender, self-compassion, and finding peace in the chaos.

Yoga has taught me to embrace the messy, beautiful journey of being human. Whether it’s learning how the nervous system shapes our emotions or discovering the magic of mindful breathing, this practice keeps surprising me—and I love sharing that with my students.

I’m thrilled to share this space with Jessie Dempsey, my friend of 24 years, yoga companion, and all-around partner in joy and growth. Jessie and I have trained together multiple times, and this training is a culmination of the deep connections we’ve built through friendship and yoga. Our shared journey brings so much heart to this experience, and we can’t wait to share it with you!

In this training, we’ll laugh, sweat, and explore what it means to let go of judgment and step into possibility. Whether you’re building strength or finding stillness, my goal is to create a space where you feel supported and empowered to show up just as you are. Let’s roll out a mat and see where this Awesome Adventure takes us!
