She is also CPR, AED, First Aid, Mental Health First Aid, and Concussion Wise/Heads Up Certified.

Prior to opening Peaceful Chaos Yoga, Jeannine guided yoga practices at gyms, assisted living centers, schools, senior centers, recreation departments, nonprofits, and at yoga studios in central Connecticut (RaMa Luna, West Hartford Yoga, CT Yoga Center). Before becoming a yoga instructor, Jeannine spent over 20 years working primarily in violence prevention and intervention programming.

In addition to owning PCY, Jeannine is a parent of a neurotypical daughter and a neurodivergent son with complex medical needs. She also coaches unified sports programs for the town Recreation Department. In her downtime, if it’s not a NY Giants gameday, she can be found playing Trivial Pursuit, vegetable gardening, camping, or curling up with a book in front of the fireplace...all while drinking a Starbucks beverage.

“I started doing yoga over 25 years ago, simply because I enjoyed stretching. Taking classes off and on, I didn’t really commit to practicing until 2013. That is when I began to notice a change in my worldview and how my body felt during and after asana. Deciding to embark on teacher training was one of the best decisions of my life. It is not so much that I am a changed person, but one who has reconnected with herself, and remembered the joy I felt in the everyday, before life got in the way.”
