Adjunct Faculty

 

When and why you moved to L.A.

I moved to L.A. in 2002 because my brother, CJ, was desperate for a roommate.

 

A turning point, shift, evolution in your practice

I was humbled when going to my first flow class and could not do chaturanga properly. Finally (many flow classes later), I was able to do it and felt so strong!

 

Something that complements your practice

I really like the outdoors and enjoy hiking. Specifically, yoga has strengthened my ankles so much that hiking uneven terrain can be done with more ease and fewer aches and pains.

 

If you weren’t a yoga teacher, you would be

doing something with animals as I love every single one of them!

 

April Jacobson left Lake Forest, California for Los Angeles in 2002. A star student in one of YogaPoser’s first teacher trainings, she now practices and teaches Ashtanga and leads the Practicum portion of the level one program.

“The first time I heard about yoga, I remember thinking it seemed very boring. I’ve learned that I cannot control other people’s actions–only my reactions to their actions…that basically I have the final choice.”
